 Constipation + Sucrose = No, thanks! September 29, 2008
Victoria Compton (Seattle, WA)
You think you're doing something good for your kid when you invest a little more to get an organic formula. Sadly, that's not the case here. This is a horrifically constipating formula...lots of pain and straining, guaranteed. Having to take measures to prevent this (offering juices, water, etc) is just not a sensible approach.
Also, the manufacturers use sucrose instead of lactose to save money, and they use a LOT of it. With the same sweetness as country time lemonade, Similac Organic's sucrose-based formula may also set your child up for future diabetes. Check the NY Times article for more info on this.
Bottom line: painful constipation in the near term, possible diabetes and certainly a sweet tooth in the future...no, thanks!
 If you're worried about consitpation.... June 29, 2008

I purchased this formula but was worried after reading the comments here that my 5 month old baby would suffer from constipation. He did. However, I really wanted to use organic formula so I added a few teaspoons of prunes to his cereal and within 12 hours - problem solved. No constipation since and he has been on this formula for about 2 weeks. I give him some prune/cereal every 4 days. If your baby is not yet on solids you might consider giving him a little apple or pear juice mixed with water. This should do the trick also. Don't let the constipation issue scare you off.

we switched from the advance similac to the organic product thinking it would be better as we prefer organic foods ourselves. it was a disaster with our 2 month old baby getting constipated and progressively worsening her intake till she fell drastically below her calorie intake. we discontinued the product within five days and switched back to the previous similac and she is fine now. her feeding and calorie intake is back to normal
very convenient February 22, 2008

i love the fact that i can get this delieved to my house with no delievy charge.it is so hard to find organic formular
It's about time! February 7, 2008
Karen Chiantella (Venice, FL USA)
As far as I can tell, this is the only organic "ready to feed" formula on the US market (Earth's Best only comes in powder form). It's about time!!!! It's CHEAPER on Amazon than from the Similac online store.
