powder, lactose or turbinado sugar or maple syrup or rice syrup, sunflower oil or olive oil,
grapeseed oil, and molasses. Shake well. When contents are well mixed, add cold water so that
the total volume reaches 8 ounces. Shake well again. Lastly add probiotics (to ensure their
viability) and any other once-per-day ingredients (vitamins, colostrum, or DHA) Shake well one
last time.
Every Bottle ingredients:
Full Fat Goat Milk Powder – 1 level scoop (14 grams)

This is really where all the magic begins. Goat milk is a remarkable food in that it more closely
resembles the protein, fat, and carbohydrate structure of breast milk than literally any other
ingredient available. The benefits range from the nucleotide (DNA) structure of goat milk
being as similar to breast milk to the presence of taurine in goat milk amounting to 20 times
that of cow’s milk which is, not surprisingly, the same ratio found in breast milk.

Carbohydrates – 1 tbsp. (12 grams)

Carbohydrates are the main source of energy for baby and there is a fair amount of flexibility
here. I prefer to use lactose as it is true “milk sugar”. Lactose is a combination of glucose and
galactose which is perfect for an infant’s diet. Babies naturally produce excessive amounts of
lactase, an enzyme used to digest lactose so the fit is natural. Also, lactose is really helpful in
establishing Lactobacillus acidophilus (good bacteria) in the newly formed GI tract of your little
one. Other good options for your carbohydrate sources are organic, raw turbinado sugar, organic
maple syrup, brown rice syrup, and even cow milk lactose. Honey is not a good option as it is
not recommend for babies less than 12 months old.

Saturated fat (MCT)– ½ tsp.

This is one of nature’s greatest fat sources. Ghee is the clarified “butter oil” from goat milk
cream and does not contain any of the allergens found in cow milk. Mt. Capra is currently the
only company in the world producing this unique food. Saturated fat is extremely important for
the brain development and overall health of your growing little one. The saturated fat in goat
milk ghee is high in medium chain triglycerides (MCT’s) and because our goats are grass-fed,
our ghee contains Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) as well as important fatty acids such as
lauric acid which is found in high amounts in breast milk. EDIT: Coconut oil is still a great
option for the saturated fat category of the formula and can be used in the same amount as the
goat milk ghee. Coconut oil was the most requested ingredient replacement question as it is
unfortunately somewhat common as an allergen. We created our goat milk ghee to address this
need and because this formula is meant to be a low-allergy option, the Goat Milk Ghee is a great
tool for those little ones who are especially sensitive to the allergens found in coconut oil.

High Oleic expeller pressed – Sunflower / Olive Oil – ¼ tsp

High Oleic Sunflower oil delivers more healthy fats, this time in the form of monounsaturated
fats. High Oleic (not cheap standard) sunflower oil is the highest source of monounsaturated
fatty acids available on the supermarket shelves. Olive oil is acceptable to use here if it is high
quality and not adulterated with low quality oils. Sunflower oil is also a great source of naturally
occurring Vitamin E.
Expeller Pressed Grapeseed Oil – ⅛ tsp

Grapeseed oil is present to deliver the essential fatty acid linoleic acid which is vital in infant
nutrition. This is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that the body cannot produce on its own but is not
in need of in large amounts. Commercial formula manufacturers pack their formulas with cheap
canola/safflower oils that are high in linoleic acid but much higher than an infant needs for
proper health. Since these oils are high in polyunsaturated Omega6 fatty acids, they tend to be
inflammatory as opposed to the saturated/monounsaturated fatty acids. Since you are making
your own formula, you get to add only the necessary amount of this essential fatty acid without
flooding the formula with polyunsaturated fatty acids. You won’t find that level of flexibility in
any prepackaged formula.

Unsulphured Blackstrap molasses – ⅛ tsp

This thick black syrup is high in B vitamins, minerals, and is a natural source of iron. It also can
help keep baby from getting constipated so be careful not to give too much! Make sure you get
the unsulphured variety as it is far less processed.

Once per day ingredients:


Vitamin/mineral supplement – ¼ tsp.

Remember, this one you only need to add to one bottle per day as it will contain all the
vitamins/minerals needed for that day. delivers key nutrients in optimal potencies and
combinations for the special needs of young children. 100 mg vitamin C (250% DV), 400 IU
vitamin D3 (100% DV), and 50 mcg vitamin K. Please don’t add this to every bottle.

DHA – Based on weight

DHA also known as Docosahexaenoic acid is found in fish, algae and most importantly here,
breast milk. It is not found in goat milk and is a required addition to the formula for its content of
DHA as well as Vitamin D and Vitamin A. This is another ingredient that only needs to be added
once per day based on the weight of baby.

Infant Probiotic strain– ⅛ tsp.

Probiotics are naturally present in breast milk and there are several different strains that are
perfectly designed for infants. Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium breve,
Bifidobacterium longum, and Saccaromyces boulardii all have clinical research that shows
safety in infants as well as many beneficial effects there are many high quality infant probiotics
available. Since most probably will only recommend them for kids 3 and up, I suggest only using
half a dose but probiotics are amazingly safe and I would have no problem using the regular
strength or even double the strength if the situation needed it. Remember, this ingredient only
needs to be added only once per day and should be kept in cold storage until right before you add
it to the bottle.
Optional Once per day ingredients:
Goat Milk Colostrum– 1 scoop (1,450 mg)

Colostrum is the thick yellow fluid which is produced as a precursor to mother’s milk. It is found
in humans, goats, and other mammals where it is produced by the mother for two days following
birth. Colostrum can be described as a brilliantly designed transfer system which effectively
“jump starts” a newborn’s undeveloped immune system. Colostrum adds many beneficial
bioactive ingredients such as lactoferrin, cytokines, growth factors, and immunoglobulins. It only
needs to be added once per day. Make sure to get the powdered goat milk colostrum for easy
mixing.

Baby Formula Recipe – Frequently Asked
Questions
Just so you know…

Breast milk is the gold standard for infant nutrition.

But you already knew that.

What you might not know is that a goat milk infant formula mimics breast milk and follows the
guidelines created by the 1980 Infant Formula Act. The formula recommendations are simple
wholesome ingredients, not finished infant formula. Nothing written here or anywhere on this site
should be seen as medical advice. Talk with your doctor before making any changes to your infants diet.

If this all sounds good to you, then by all means continue reading.

Parents, please keep your own doctor informed regarding what you are doing in regard to using
the baby formula recipe. Your doctor is the first line and primary means of healthcare for your
little one second only to you.

With that disclaimer out of the way let’s get started.

Is goat milk good for baby formula?

Yes. A thousand times yes! Goat milk is the sole source of protein in this formula recipe. There
are no other significant sources of protein from other ingredients. Protein is the most important
macronutrient for growing muscle, tissue, and over infant growth. Goat milk is the perfect
ingredient to use in baby formula because:

1. Goat milk is easy to digest,


2. Goat milk doesn’t cause allergic reactions with the frequencies that are common to cow milk
and soy milk.
3. The nucleotide (DNA) structure of goat milk is very similar to breast milk and the presence
of taurine in goat milk is between 20 times that of cow’s milk which is, not surprisingly, the
same ratio found in breast milk, (Being a conditionally essential amino acid, taurine is
often added to cow milk formulas to make up for the natural absence of this key AA in cow milk)
4. The polyamine content is higher in goat milk than any any other mammalian milk.

Is goat milk safe for babies?

Because goat milk is easier to digest and often causes no allergic reactions it is a perfectly safe
ingredient to use in a goat milk formula. Notice how I used the word formula. Goat milk is safe
for babies if it is used in a formula. Not by itself. One should never feed undiluted goat milk to
a baby less than 12 months old. The protein and sodium levels found in undiluted goat milk are
too high for infants under 12 months and goat milk is naturally low in folate and iron which need
to be replaced by using multivitamin for infants.

How long will the baby formula last once in the fridge?

Use the formula as quickly as possible and try to not let it go beyond 2 days. 3 days would be the
max. How much you are feeding will determine how much you should make ahead.

How long can the formula be out of the refrigerator once it is made?

The rule of thumb for all prepared foods is to not let the food stay out for more than 4 hours at
room temperature. I recommend playing it safe and not letting this extend beyond 2 hours.
Don’t rerefrigerate previously warmed up bottles.

I want to take the formula with me traveling. What tips do you have for making
the formula while “on the road.”

In order to do this right you only need 3 simple things. A thermos of “hot” water, an eight ounce
bottle and a sealable jar/container. Place all of your dry ingredients in the 8 oz baby bottle and
fill a sealable jar/container with 4 parts ghee/coconut oil, 2 parts sunflower oil/olive oil, 1 part
grapeseed oil, and 1 part blackstrap molasses. Now when you are ready to mix the formula,
simply add your water to the dry ingredients, add 1 teaspoon of your “liquid cocktail”, shake,
and viola! You’re ready to go.

I want to use liquid/raw goat milk in my formula instead of the powder. How
should the recipe be modified?

The ratio is easy ratio to remember: 1:1.

It is a 1:1 ratio of milk to water. 4 ounces milk to 4 ounces of warm water and everything else in
the recipe stays the same.

Warning: I LOVE raw milk. I completely believe that it has attributes that are superior to
pasteurized milk. However, I don’t recommend using raw goat milk in the infant formula for
one very important reason. While raw milk can be incredibly healthy, it can also be incredibly
dangerous. I am specifically referring to raw milk that has been improperly handled. Dirty raw
milk will get you sicker quicker than anything! Babies especially are even more susceptible to
the kinds of food borne illness raw milk can easily carry. Please keep your little one safe. This
formula is meant to mimic raw milk (probiotics, food based vitamins/minerals, unprocessed fats,
etc.) without the risks that raw milk comes with such as campylobacter, salmonella, e. coli, and
listeria poisoning. Consider a basic risk assessment. In my opinion, the cons outweigh the pros in
using raw milk.

Can I use the baby formula recipe for babies or newborns or –insert age here–?
Yes. Now all things come with risks. Feeding your baby a commercial formula of soy protein
and corn syrup comes with risks but is considered “safe” by most people. We have been
constantly updating and improving the formula and have had such overwhelmingly great
feedback for all ages between newborn and 1 year. I never get tired of saying this though, keep
your doctor in the loop.

Do we use the multivitamins/probiotics in every bottle we make?

No. Just include those nutrients in one bottle per day and your baby will receive his/her needed
vitamins and probiotics.

Is goat milk low in folic acid and vitamin b12?

You are right. (good job!) That is why we add the multivitamin.

How much iron is in goat milk?

Goat milk only has around .1 mg per 8 fl oz. See next question for iron needs for infants. Also
important to note is that the iron found in goat milk is far more bioavailable than the iron found
in cow milk. Another win for the goats! In fact the large study claimed that goat milk can prevent
iron deficiency!

Is my baby getting enough iron with this formula?

Yes and here is why. When a baby is born full term they usually have a 6 month supply of iron
that they have stored up while still in the womb. Therefore, from 0-6 months, the iron
requirement for infants is only .27 mg/day. After six months however, the requirement jumps up
to 11 mg for babies between 7 -12 months and then drops back down to 7 mg/day for toddlers 1-
3 years of age. (The iron RDA won’t go back up to 11mg/day until your son or daughter is a
teenager.)

The formula will deliver 0.5mg iron/100 calories of formula. Usually by the time a baby gets to 6
months, they begin eating a variety of solid foods and as long as parents are careful to include
iron rich foods (winter squash, sweet potato etc.) along with vitamin C rich fruits and vegetables
(vitamin C assists with iron absorption) supplementing with iron drops shouldn’t be necessary.
However if you choose to supplement with iron drops remember that often these can cause
constipation molasses does not.

The directions on the milk powder says I should use 2 scoops but your recipe
only calls for one. Why is that ?

A baby under 12 months old still has developing kidneys. Straight, “full strength” goat milk
powder uses two scoops. There is simply too much protein and naturally occurring sodium in
that amount of milk powder for the maturing kidneys of a baby to handle. Therefore we reduce
the amount of milk powder to reduce the amount of protein. We then increase the amount of
carbohydrates to make up for what we’ve taken out.

My baby just started the baby formula recipe and loves it! He seems constipated
though. Should I be worried?

It is very common for slight constipation to occur when switching to formula. There are several
easy fixes that will help the transition. First, give them time to adjust on their own. The digestive
system of a infant does not react as quickly as a mature digestive system to changes in diet and
sometimes all the baby needs is a little more time to regulate on their own. If however it seems
that they need a little help you can do one of two things.

First, add less milk powder to the formula. Instead of using 1 scoop per bottle use 3/4 of a
scoop and let the formula be a bit watered down for a day or two. This will usually clear things
up and then you can go back to the regular recipe.

Another trick is to add a generous amount of blackstrap molasses to the formula, blackstrap
molasses is a natural laxative. The recipe calls for 1/8 of a teaspoon of molasses but feel free to
use double, triple or even quadruple that for a short period of time to help clear up the
constipation.

I’m using goat milk powder from Meyenberg. Is that okay? Does it change the
formula?

Yes this is okay. I prefer to use and always recommend our high quality goat milk powder
(suprise :-D) because it has been dried at a lower temperature, comes from goats fed a non-GMO
diet, and simply tastes better. However we can’t compete with the cheaper price Meyenberg
offers so I understand why parents would need to use their product. However the liquid goat
milk that is found in the grocery stores has been ultra-pasturized and that makes it much more
difficult to digest. This form of pasteurization is called ultra-pasteurized (UHT) which gives it a
much longer shelf life but drastically decreases the digestibility of the milk. Ultra-pasteurization
ultimately makes food nutritionally sterile. If UHT goat milk is it is your only option
temporarily, don’t worry, it will work. If you can though, try and find a high quality goat milk
powder or find a liquid pasteurized variety. UHT goat milk is still be much better than cow milk
but it is the least desirable of the forms for your infant formula.

The vitamin says 6-12 months but my baby is less than 6 months. What should I
do?

Marketing anything for babies under 6 months carries a lot of liability for manufacturers and
therefore they are often unwilling to place written recommendation on their labeling that
recommends infants less than 6 months use the product. There isn’t any ingredients that would
be dangerous for a baby less than 6 months therefore I have no problem giving baby the vitamin
powder. As always, keep your doctor in the loop so they can be aware of any special
considerations your baby may need.
I’m stressing out that I won’t make this formula right. I want it to be perfect for
my baby!

I do too! Developing infants need a lot of wholesome nutrition in their first year of life but we
sometimes forget how resilient the growing body is to various forms of nutrition. Breast milk
alone is obviously the gold standard but the nutritional composition varies wildly from week to
week, day to day, and even hour to hour. Therefore don’t stress out about every little microcosm
of the formula. If you baby gets a little more oil in a bottle then the recipe calls for, don’t worry
about it.

Breast milk fat, lactose (carbs), and protein go up and down a lot over the course of the first year
of babies life. If you forget to add the vitamins, stay calm, it’s not the end of the world. You baby
will be fine. Just follow the recipe as closely as you can and your baby will do great! Good job
giving your baby the best formula available!

Q. Does the formula require any changes as my child gets older?

No the formula is designed for use until baby reaches 12 months. However the beauty of making
your own baby formula recipe means you have the ability to change the formula as you and your
doctor see fit.

As your infant grows into a toddler his kidneys develop and mature so that he is able to handle
the higher protein content in goat milk. Between the age of 10-12 months, if you should so
choose, you can begin to transition your baby to a high concentration of goat milk powder.
Instead of only 1 level scoop of milk powder per 8 fl oz you can begin putting 1 scoop + 1/3
scoop milk powder.

As you gradually increase the milk powder, you should gradually decrease the added
carbohydrates and fats as the milk contains carbohydrates and fats to compensate. The table
below will gives an example of how you might choose to transition your child whole milk
version of goat milk. As always, don’t do this without checking with your doctor.

Best Baby Formula – Top 7 Reasons for
Making Your Own

The Best Baby Formula Doesn’t Come in Can.


This baby formula doesn’t come in a ready-to-mix can or in a ready-to-drink bottle. What it lacks
in convenience, it more than makes up for in overall quality, consistency, and nutritional safety.
Over the many years I’ve spent studying infant formulas, I have become more and more
convinced that there simply isn’t a way to create a formula in a “ready-to-mix/drink” final form,
that is as nutritionally bioavailable, palatable, or resembles breast milk as closely as a carefully
researched, properly prepared homemade goat milk formula recipe.

How we got here.


Just a few short decades ago, buying commercial baby formula was unheard of since it was
assumed to be an unnecessary expense. Most mothers either breastfed or employed a wet nurse.
For those unable to do either, the easiest course of action was to prepare a formula at home from
easily accessible ingredients. “Formula” was simply a recipe you followed (a formula of
ingredients) when breastfeeding was unavailable. Some of the “formulas” utilized good
ingredients. Others relied upon less-than-stellar ingredients, but all were made at home using
simple preparation techniques.

It wasn’t until the 1950’s that the current in vogue popular opinion was that “the science is
settled, formula is best!” At this time, commercially manufactured formulas began heavily
marketing their products to moms as both a convenience and offering a nutritional advantage to
breast feeding.

As laughable as this sounds today, commercially prepared infant formula really was genuinely
thought, believed, and promoted by well-intentioned, scientifically-convinced doctors, nurses,
and public health experts as being superior to breast milk!

In the 1970s, commercially prepared infant formula was one of the fastest growing segments of
the food industry. Any company looking to market to an eager public, ever-bent on “efficiency,”
was guaranteed a strongly performing, profit-rich, product line.

However, because the industry was so new and the product was being made for a particularly
vulnerable population, there were rampant nutritional deficiencies during the early years. Also,
there was very little consistency between commercially available formulas, many of which
simply followed the fickle nutrition advice popular at the time. For example, one particular
manufacturer, Syntex Laboratories, in response to the constant refrain of reducing sodium,
eliminated salt completely from their formula which resulted in chloride deficiencies in
thousands of infants.

1980 Infant Formula Act


In response to public outcry, Congress passed the 1980 Infant Formula Act which listed, in
specific detail, both minimums levels and maximum levels allowed for every 100 Calories (5 oz)
of ready-to-drink/mix infant formula. While the act was far from perfect, it did give a nutritional
baseline for infant formula manufacturers which at least ensured some level of consistency when
developing what they their formulas.

The Best Baby Formula


When I developed the homemade goat milk formula (HGMF) over 8 years ago for my
daughter, Liesl, I followed the nutrient guidelines that all infant formula manufacturers must
follow. The nutritional requirements set out in the 1980 Infant formula Act can be found at
21CFR107.100.. I originally sought to create an infant formula recipe because, at the time, I
observed a host of homemade formulas that, if properly prepared, would leave nutritional gaps,
possible exposure to potentially dangerous pathogens, and basic palatability and preparation
issues that would make prolonged usage unlikely. Even though this formula is quite easy to
make, I have had many parents literally beg me to make a “ready-to-mix” final formula. This is
usually because the homemade recipe takes a bit more time to prepare and there are more
ingredients to keep track of and stocked in your home pantry. However, I don’t plan on ever
making a “ready-to-mix” formula powder. Here are 7 reasons why the best baby formula will
always be made at home and never found in a can.

1. Wholesome Fat Content


In order to get fats in a shelf stable, dry powder form, they must be mixed with a carrier of some
kind. You cannot take a fat source like olive oil and dry it without some kind of carrier. To
facilitate the drying of oil, a carrier (generally maltodextrin) is added to the oil, to ensure that it
reaches a consistency that is allowed for ready-to-mix infant formula powder. These carriers are
probably not “the end of the world,” nutritionally but they are essentially “throw away”
ingredients that are a “necessary evil” for ready-to-mix formula powder. There is even some
evidence to suggest that maltodextrin is quite destructive to the lining of the stomach and
disrupts microbiological health of an infants newly developing digestive tract. Also, the drying
of oils using traditional industrial drying techniques will always oxidize the oils and add a certain
level of rancidity to the oil on day one. By purchasing fresh oil in a sunlight-protected container,
you can ensure that the oil is neither rancid, oxidized, nor contains anything other than the oil
itself.

2. Highly Optimized Fatty Acid Profile


To continue on fats, but in a slightly different vein, in your quest to make the best baby formula,
making your own formula at home allows you to highly optimize the fatty acid profile. First, a
quick explanation of fatty acid profiles. Fats are broken down into three main groups: Saturated
Fatty Acids (SFA), Monounsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA) and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
(PUFA). Generally speaking, the healthiest fats are MUFA’s and SFA from grass-fed/wild
caught animals. Conversely, the fats to avoid are the far more inflamatory PUFA’s found in
vegetable oils.
Western diets contain an enormous amount of the less desirable PUFA’s from corn, vegetable,
and other cheap industrialized food oils and as a result, we commonly suffer from many
inflammatory conditions. MUFA’s and SFA’s are less inflammatory but often more expensive,
and therefore, used far less.

The tricky part is that certain PUFA’s are essential fatty acids, meaning that they contain
substances that our body cannot produce on its own. Because a small amount of PUFA’s are
essential, one of the requirements in the 1980 Infant Formula Act was a minimum amount of
linoleic acid, a PUFA. This is because linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid and an infant cannot
produce this naturally from other fat sources.

Linoleic Acid must be present in the formula.

Still with me? I promise I’m going somewhere with this.

Because linoleic is an essential fatty acid, because it is cheap, and because there is a minimum
amount required by law in infant formula (.3g per 5 fl oz), the obvious choice for infant formula
manufacturers was to use cheap PUFA oils.
Cheap PUFA oils perfectly checked both the regulation box and the profitability box. Now I am
not opposed to any free enterprise organization maximizing their profits. It’s what good
companies do. But if there was a way for me to optimize my health or the health of my child by
“opting out” of the official system, I would jump at the chance.

By making your own HGMF, you get that chance.

With the Homemade Goat Milk Formula Recipe, there is an emphasis on both MUFA’s from
High-Oleic Sunflower oil (BONUS: even higher MUFA’s than olive oil) and an emphasis on
SFA from grass-fed Goat Milk Ghee which contains the nutritional powerhouse conjugated
linoleic acid. However, the essential fatty acid is not left out because we include a small amount
of Grapeseed Oil which contains a high concentration of Linoleic Acid without overemphasizing
the overall PUFA content.

Optimized Fatty Acid Content = Emphasized MUFA and SFA and minimized (but enough)
PUFA’s.

 21% MUFA
 71% PUFA

The real beauty lies in the fact that we can include a relatively tiny amount (1/8 tsp) of high
PUFA oil (Grapeseed) which is enough to ensure the recipe meets the linoleic acid requirement
without flooding the formula with inflammatory oils.

Our goat milk formula recipe has a fatty acid profile that is 65% SFA from grass-fed goat milk
ghee, 24% MUFA from High-Oleic Sunflower oil (or olive oil if you choose to use that), and
only 9% PUFA from Expeller-pressed Grapeseed oil. Compare that with commercial, ready-to-
mix formulas high in oxidized PUFA’s and you’ll have to agree, this is a major benefit of
making your formula at home.

3. No Carriers or Fillers
As I said earlier, I don’t blame formula companies for trying to maximize profits; it’s what
successful companies do. However, because carriers are unneeded in our homemade formula,
every bottle I make is guaranteed to be free of carriers or fillers such as maltodextrin and corn
syrup. This means every dollar I spend on making formula at home is going directly to the health
of baby and not simply padding the bottom line.

4. Protein
Optimizing the nutritional protein level is the number one reason formula exists in the first place.
While infants do need less protein initially than the levels found in goat milk, as the child grows,
their protein needs also grow. One of the beautiful things about the way the human body was
designed is that the nutritional profile of breast milk adapts in-sync with the growing baby. At
first breast milk is very low in protein and much higher in fat and carbohydrates, just like the
nutritional needs of baby. As baby matures, so does the breast milk with the protein levels
increasing in-step with the development of the kidneys. When you make your own formula at
home, you can increase the protein levels (if you or your pediatrician wish) and/or reduce the
carbohydrate/fat levels to emphasize growth, weight gain, or overall satiety. This is virtually
impossible to do with ready-to-mix formulas as protein is a limiting factor.
5. Flexibility
While it is no secret that making the best baby formula at home is a less convenient method than
simply popping two scoops of ready-to-mix powder into a bottle, it is still extremely flexible
when it comes to securing ingredients. There are substitutions that can be made for both fats and
carbohydrates that can adapt to the availability of ingredients for each individual. This means
that there is a greater likelihood that ingredients needed for baby can be procured even if they
differ slightly from the official recipe ingredients. If baby appears sensitive to a single ingredient
in the formula, often that ingredient can be substituted for another and success can be found with
the formula. This is in stark contrast to the the carousel many parents find themselves on of
trying one formula after the next, never sure why this formula worked better than that one or why
some formulas simply don’t work at all.

6. The Best Baby Formula also has the best Taste


Have you ever tasted commercial formula? While I can’t claim to be a connoisseur, I have tasted
many and “yuck” is usually the word I use to describe them. Generally I sense a gross, metallic,
bitter flavor. Now while it is true that “appetite is the greatest spice” (In other words, baby will
drink just about anything if he/she is hungry enough), do we really want our kiddos choking
down their food at every feeding? Making your own formula at home means you are using real
food and real ingredients that actually taste really good and baby won’t have to be starving to
enjoy her/his bottle.

7. Quality Assurance
Infant formula is the most heavily regulated food product in America. This is for good reason
too, as people want to ensure that their precious children are safe and adequately nourished.
However, the majority of regulation on infant formula has little to do with nutrient quality and
much to do with process verification. Such regulation includes final product pathogen testing,
recall ability, label review/scrutiny, lot tracking, and other paperwork/process/testing regulations.
Surprisingly there are very few rules on the quality of ingredients allowed. This is why many
formulas contain such garbage like corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, maltodextrin, soy protein, etc.
As long as a manufacturer can demonstrate that the ingredients have been handled and processed
in a way that kept them safe from contaminants, the products/ingredients can be easily recalled if
problems arise, and the formula promises precise levels of key nutrients are present, etc. then
regulations have been met.

That’s all.

There isn’t anything else required regarding the quality of the actual ingredients i.e. Grass-fed,
organic, non-GMO, etc. Making your own formula means you can not only ensure quality
processing (washing hands, sanitizing bottles, refrigerating formula, etc.) but can also ensure the
best quality ingredients from sources you trust.
Don’t be afraid to make this baby formula.
We all know that “breast is best.” That science really is settled; nothing can compete with the
nutrient quality of breast milk.
For a multitude of reasons, breast feeding isn’t always available as the exclusive nutrient source
for baby. For these situations, making the best baby formula at home doesn’t have to be scary. It
actually isn’t dangerous if you follow a scientifically sound formula recipe. The quality of
ingredients and processing steps can be held to a standard that no corporate manufacturer could
ever nor would ever maintain. Making homemade baby formula is simply using real food to feed
and nourish your baby.
The Science
The goal is easy to understand: Create a homemade goat milk formula recipe that resemble
mother’s milk as closely as possible.

Easy to state, hard to accomplish.

In order for a homemade recipe to resemble human breast milk, we first need to know what the
nutritional components of human breast milk are. Here is the rub though, we don’t know.
Mimicking breast milk is like trying to mimic the weather; it is constantly changing.

mimicking breast milk is like trying to mimic the weather; it is constantly changing.

There is no standardized nutritional profile for breast milk.

I know, I know, we want a nice little nutrition facts panel that clearly details exactly the amounts
of fat, carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, bio-active components like
nucleotides, cytokines, and growth factors in mother’s milk.

However this is never going to happen.

There are literally huge changes in the composition of breast milk that make it impossible to
give an exact nutritional profile.

The best we can do is analyze thousands of samples of breast milk for hundreds of different
women at dozens of different times during their lactation taking into account such variables as
time post-partum, minutes into feeding (foremilk vs hindmilk), ethnicity, region, age, diet, health
status, etc. The list of variables needed to determine the nutritional profile of breast milk is mind
boggling.

We can however use the power of statistics and make some assumptions.

You see we are not completely in the dark as to this nutritional composition. We do have some
detailed analysis that shows in each 5 ounces of milk on average breast milk contains the
following macro nutrient profile.

Per 5 ounces Breast milk

Calories 103.5

Lactose 10.7

Fat 5.76

Protein 2.04
So even though the nutritional composition of breast milk might vary (some estimate by as much
as a factor of 3 during feeding) we can get a general ballpark for where an infant formula should
be nutritionally speaking. Here is how the recipe I created compares with breast milk.

Per 5 ounces Breast Milk Goat Milk Formula

Calories 103.5 100.7

Lactose 10.7 11.1

Fat 5.76 5.3

Protein 2.04 2.3

First the backstory.

I have been a lifetime goat milk consumer due to a nasty allergy I had developed as a young
child to cow milk. A careless licked ice cream spoon was all it took to send me over the edge and
into an intense allergic reaction. It was safe to call my allergy severe but I can’t claim that it was
unusual. Cow milk allergy (CMA) is the number one allergy in kids and symptoms include
irritability, vomiting, wheezing, swelling, hives, and even anaphylactic shock! Thankfully the
solution to this problem became evident and I was immediately placed on goat milk and thrived.

It was safe to call my allergy severe but I can’t claim that it was unusual. Cow milk allergy is the
number one allergy in kids and symptoms include irritability, vomiting, wheezing, swelling,
hives, and even anaphylactic shock!

My daughter Liesl was in desperate need of a formula that would not cause her to experience the
tell tale signs of cow milk allergy. Her younger sister was coming and mama’s supply of breast
milk gave out. However commercial formulas were a disaster. Right away we noticed, hives on
her cheeks, legs, and arms. She then developed an awful diaper rash, as well as severe diarrhea.
Needless to say we took her off of that formula immediately and started her on the goat milk
formula (GMF).

Note: I have never advocated giving infants goat milk as the sole source of nutrition. Goat milk
by itself contains excessive protein and sodium and lacks folate and vitamin B12 (among other
things). This is a Goat Milk Formula Recipe and not plain goat milk.

Now I believe using goat milk as the base to this formula is the perfect alternative to cow milk
but I at the time wasn’t satisfied with the homemade infant formulas available. While there were
many reasons for this, the primary one was that the recipes that were available were all based on
cow milk.

Cow milk contains an extremely allergenic protein called alpha s1 casein which is recognized
by the body as a foreign antigen (invader). When the body “recognizes” this invader it “reacts”
with an immune response that includes all the signs and symptoms listed above.
Cow milk allergy (CMA) is the number one allergy causing substance in kids under three.

All of the homemade formulas listed at the time included raw cow milk. Conveniently left out of
the discussion was the fact that raw milk will not prevent a CMA reaction. If a child has CMA it
doesn’t matter if the milk is raw or pasteurized, an allergic reaction will still occur as the body is
reacting to the protein not the presence or absence of of enzymes or probiotics as is found in raw
milk. In fact, in the study I cited above, the only way to lessen the chance of a CMA reaction was
to extensively heat the milk at high temperatures. Note: I love raw cow milk and occasionally
drink it myself but know first hand that raw or pasteurized you will react if you have CMA.

Convinced that the world was in dire need of a scientifically sound goat milk formula, I decided
to put my six and half years of nutrition study to work.

Goat milk is the perfect alternative to cow milk in an infant formula, however an infants needs
are slightly different than those of an adult or even a young child.

First, if goat milk is the sole food being provided to an infant than protein content needs to be
taken into account. Goat milk should be diluted to lower the protein content. This will ensure
that the formula doesn’t contain protein levels that would be stressful to the newly formed
kidneys of the infant. However once you lower the protein levels by diluting the milk, you now
have to increase the calories, carbohydrates, and fat, accordingly to make up for diluting the
milk.

This is simple enough to accomplish by adding healthy and proper fats, carbohydrates, and other
micronutrients back in via goat milk lactose, goat milk ghee, high-oleic sunflower oil, and the
rest of the ingredients that make up the recipe.

Now this recipe is certainly not the first homemade baby formula recipe ever created. No one
living can claim to have invented a homemade formula as formula has always meant recipe or to
put another way, a “formula” of ingredients.

There are at least three aspects of this recipe that make it different than any other recipe I’ve seen
or heard of.

1. Easy to obtain ingredients


o No need to pester your local chicken farmer for raw livers or try and obtain raw milk that
may or may not be contaminated with listeria, e. coli, or campylobacter jejuni.
2. Follows a straight forward mixing/preparing schedule
o No need to spend hours at the oven boiling beef gelatin. This formula can be made in 8
oz batches in just minutes of simply measuring and mixing directly in the bottle your
about to use. No extensive preparing or cleanup.
3. Complete compliance with Federal nutrient requirements for infant formula.
o This is the one that makes it all worthwhile. I recently spent over 40 hours researching
and compiling a database that compares the nutrient minimums and maximums
allowed by the Infant Formula Act of 1980 to nutrient levels found in the goat milk
formula recipe when it is properly mixed and prepared. The results were
astounding. Every single nutrient is in compliance with federal law making this formula
the first of its kind.

Let’s briefly look at the macronutrient consideration for this formula.

Protein

Goat milk is the sole source of protein in this formula recipe. There are no other significant
sources of protein from other ingredients and is the most important macronutrient from growing
muscle, tissue, and over infant growth. Goat milk is the perfect ingredient in this category for
reasons I have mentioned before such as the fact that the nucleotide (DNA) structure of goat
milk is very similar to breast milk and the presence of taurine in goat milk is between 20
times that of cow’s milk which is, not surprisingly, the same ratio found in breast
milk, (Being a conditionally essential amino acid, taurine is often added to cow milk formulas to
make up for the natural absence of this key AA in cow milk) and the polyamine content is
higher in goat milk than any any other mammalian milk.

Carbohydrates

Lactose makes the main source of energy for baby in this formula. Lactose, also known as “milk
sugar”, is a combination of glucose and galactose which is perfect for an infant’s diet. Babies
naturally produce excessive amounts of lactase, an enzyme used to digest lactose so the fit is
natural. Also, lactose is really helpful in establishing Lactobacillus acidophilus (good bacteria) in
the newly formed GI tract of your little one and aids in the absorption of the minerals
magnesium, calcium, zinc and iron.

Lactose isn’t the only carbohydrate found in goat milk though. In fact, one of the most unique
and nutritionally beneficial aspect to goat milk is its potential as a functional food due to the high
levels of oligosaccharides. These forms of soluble fiber are absolutely vital in establishing a
health microflora in the digestive tract of an infant and are found in levels 4-5 times higher than
in cow milk and 10 times higher than the content found in sheep milk. In addition to this,
the Journal of Nutrition found that “(the oligosaccharide) profile of goat milk is most similar to
that of human milk. In fact, a larger amount and variety of acidic (oligosaccharide) structures
were identified in goat milk than in cow and sheep milk. Therefore, goat milk (oligosaccharides)
could be included in infant formulas to improve the nutrition of infants.”

Fat

The benefits of making your own baby formula at home really becomes apparent when it comes
to the fat content and fatty acid profile of the final product. When you buy commercially
manufactured infant formula, by law it will be required to have an appropriate amount of fat and
linoleic acid (an essential fatty acid). However simply having the correct amount of fat is not the
same as having the correct kinds of fat. F

First some biochemistry


Proper fatty acid profile is critical.

For decades we’ve heard that fat is bad for you. Fortunately this myth is going away but the
science it was based upon was not entirely faulty. Properly restated, inflammatory fat is bad for
you.

The fatty acid profile of the Standard American Diet is made up primarily of polyunsaturated
fatty acids (PUFAs). We eat about 20 times more of these inflammatory fatty acids than we
need and because of this are constantly struggling with inflammation issues and not surprisingly
obesity. The far more beneficial fatty acids are monounsaturated fatty acids
(MUFA) and animal sourced saturated fatty acids (SFA) are what we should be focusing on
for baby’s health. Yes, some PUFA’s are essential the main one being linoleic acid (C18:2).
These are essential because the body cannot synthesize linoleic acid on its own which is why the
Infant Formula Act of 1980 stipulates that for every 100 calories of formula, there must be
a minimum of 300mg linoleic acid.

So far so good.

The problem we run into with commercially produced formulas is the fact that the cheapest oils
have the most linoleic acid.

Soybean, canola, corn oil, it all will easily fulfill the minimum requirement for linoleic acid and
its already super cheap. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure out that if compliance can be
achieve while using the cheapest ingredient most manufacturers are going to take this path. This
is a problem because the formula, while technically in compliance, has an unhealthy fatty acid
profile.

High in PUFA’s and low in MUFA’s/SFA’s. Not good.

There are 3 ingredients that contain fat in the formula. Here they are along with their fatty acid
profile.

1. Goat Milk Ghee/Full Cream Milk Powder


o 65% SFA
o 23% MUFA
o 4% PUFA
2. Hi-Oleic Sunflower Oil
o 7% SFA
o 79% MUFA
o 14% PUFA
3. Expeller-pressed Grapeseed Oil
o 7% SFA
o 21% MUFA
o 71% PUFA
The real beauty lies in the fact that we can include a relatively tiny amount (1/8 tsp) of high
PUFA oil (Grapeseed) which is enough to ensure the recipe meets the linoleic acid requirement
without flooding the formula with these inflammatory oils.

Our goat milk formula recipe has a fatty acid profile that is 65% grass-fed saturated fatty acid
(SFA), 24% mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and only 9% polyunsaturated fatty acids
(PUFA).
Nutrient Database
Below is a nutrient database I created to show conclusively that this homemade formula recipe is
not only safe for baby but follows the federal guidelines for nutrient minimums and
maximums required by law in infant formula. This recipe follows the same requirements that
infant formula manufacturers follow for each 100 calories (5 oz) of formula.

Now because this is a recipe and not a finished powder or ready-to-drink liquid, there were
certain nutritional assumptions that needed to be made in order to show the nutrient level per 100
calories. For example, the recipe relies on adding a supplemental vitamin powder in one bottle
per day. This means that we have to average the micronutrients found in that bottle over the
course of several bottles per day. I used the assumption of 30 fl oz of formula per day.

This means that the nutrient data per 100 calories (5 fl. oz) per day is assuming that baby is
consuming 30 fl. oz of formula per day. These numbers will vary slightly based on how much
formula baby is consuming.

First is a downloadable copy of the nutrient database you can print off and share with your
healthcare providers who might be concerned about you making your own formula. Goat Milk
Formula Nutrient Database Breakdown.

The database is completely searchable and I’ve tried to show my work in a way that is
understandable. None of the math is complicated but there are a lot of steps involved in coming
up with the data. If you have a question, send me a note and I will try and clarify.
