Big nutrition for tiny people.
Built on the excellent nutrition of organic whole milk fat, we're setting a new standard in baby formula.
Formula nutrition 101
Your baby needs the same nutrients as you: fat, carbs, protein, and vitamins. These nutrients are carefully balanced and regulated by the FDA to meet your baby’s nutritional needs.

Our ingredients make Nara special.
To meet the required nutrient levels, every formula must make choices about ingredients. And not all ingredients are equal. At Nara, we carefully choose every ingredient in our formula for the highest possible quality and organic nutrition.
Good fats for baby
Other formulas use all vegetable oils as their fat source, but we use the highest possible amount of whole milk because it contains good fat and naturally occurring MFGM. Then we add organic plant-based oils, including coconut oil. Together, they provide easily absorbed short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids and the essential fatty acids your baby needs for development.1 We also add DHA and ARA oils to support the brain, immune and cardiovascular systems.2
Carbs inspired by breastmilk
Just like breastmilk, lactose is the primary carbohydrate in our formula providing the energy your baby needs to grow. Lactose also helps to absorb calcium — a mineral essential for bone growth — and it acts as a prebiotic to support healthy bacteria in your baby’s gut.3,4 We also add the prebiotic GOS — derived from lactose — to support digestion.5 We never add carbs like corn syrup solids, maltodextrin, or glucose syrup.
Easy-on-tummies protein blend
Organic whey and casein, the proteins in our formula, come from our carefully sourced organic milk and whey ingredients. Our whey/casein is balanced at 60:40, an easy-on-tummies protein ratio patterned after mature breastmilk.
Essential vitamins & minerals
Nara has all the vitamins and minerals your baby needs in their first year including vitamins A, C, D, E, zinc, selenium for immune support, calcium for healthy bones, and iron, which is important for red blood cells, brain and immune development.6 Our formula also provides inositol at similar levels in breastmilk and choline to support brain development and neural function.7,8
Diving deeper: MFGM
Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is naturally occurring in whole cow’s milk and breastmilk (but not skim milk). Research shows that MFGM＊can help:
At Nara Organics, safety always comes first.
Your baby’s health is our top priority, which is why our formula meets both U.S. and EU food safety standards and is rigorously tested at every step.
＊Scientific knowledge is limited regarding outcomes for naturally occurring MFGM provided by bovine milk fat, compared to MFGM added to infant formula.
