Question
A patient inquires about which low-sugar formula milk the doctor recommends, as their child has experienced gastrointestinal discomfort after using various types of formula milk. The doctor suggested switching to goat milk for a year, which improved the situation. However, due to the economic pressure from the birth of a second child, they hope to find other brands or alternative solutions.
Answer
Based on the patient’s description, there are several brands of formula milk on the market that claim to be low in sugar; checking the ingredient list can confirm the sugar content. Additionally, it is recommended to use exported products and to encourage breastfeeding, as it is economical and has a higher nutritional value than any formula milk. It is suggested that the patient try breastfeeding and consider traditional Chinese medicine or food to boost milk supply.
