Optimum (Enspire), Our Closest Formula to Breast Milk, Immune-Supporting Lactoferrin and Brain-Supporting DHA Baby Formula, Powder 20.5 Oz Tub

Let me start by saying this formula is likely not the "best tasting" one out there. "Best tasting" when it comes to food is often the worst when it comes to nutrition. If you're concerned about taste/smell this formula is probably not for you. I personally am un-bothered by the smell and only read the nutritional label when making my choice. If you're concerned about the quality of ingredients, don't want an obese child, and want to give your kid the best nutritional formula the US has to offer.... This product is for you. Secondly, I highly recommend ordering the refill packs on Amazon. Get your initial plastic tub from the grocery store then refill it the $55 box from Amazon. It's cheaper and you don't have to worry about seals being broken. This stuff is expensive.... But it helped develop my thriving 10-month-old who is talking, laughing, smiling, communicating, and hitting all of her physical milestones with ease. She was born 5 weeks early and we worried about her mental development. She was tiny and behind other babies at first in her milestones. Since my wife breastfed and could never keep up, this was initially recommended by our pediatrician to help supplement and eventually transition from breast milk. The lactoferrin and MFGM are the special ingredients along with lactose being it's only sweetener instead of corn syrup. The MFGM makes a big difference in mental development while the lactoferrin helps develop a healthy gut (which attributes to the loads of parents saying this is the only thing their little ones can keep down). These are the only two ingredients that set it apart from traditional formulas... and they truly make a world of difference. This stuff is great. If it is just a little too expensive check out Enfamil NeuroPro... Which is basically the same thing just minus the Lactoferrin (it still contains the brain developing MFGM). Hopefully next time our next child decides to stay in the belly full-term, the breastfeeding starts off on the right foot and continues through one year. If not, I won't think twice before using Enfamil Enspire again. It's truly a no-brainer and we are so grateful to Enfamil for developing this incredible formula.

We’ve been using Enfamil Optimum for our baby and it’s been working really well. No issues with gas, spit-up, or tummy discomfort — which was a huge relief finding our go to formula on the first try. It mixes smoothly (no weird clumps), and our baby took to the taste without any fuss. It also seems to keep them full and content between feedings. Honestly, it’s just been a great fit for us. Peace of mind knowing baby is getting good nutrition and it agrees with their system. Definitely recommend trying it if you’re looking for a quality formula that’s easy on sensitive tummies.

My little one likes this formula. I like how it does not have high fructose corn syrup in the ingredients. I really read the ingredients. She has been on this since birth and is now 6 months. No stomach issues. Very little spit up. It doesn't leave her gassy. I believe it's a better quality formula. It is expensive I will say that. It helps that enfamil sends coupons in the mail. $10 off really helps. I bought this formula for an awesome amazon deal. I was extremely happy I bought 3. The packaging is nice but I don't buy something based on that. I wasn't able to breastfeed my baby and this was a good alternative for us. It mixes well. Each container has been fresh and no issues. It comes in a sealed bag in the sealed container. Easy directions on how to mix (ounces of nursery water to scoops of formula). I use nursery water to mix. No issues warming formula. My daughter likes hers warm. No constipation with this formula. When she was a baby she was every other day. Now at six months she's everyday or twice with baby food. I really wish it wasn't so expensive to get high quality formula, but it is what it is. You can also contact enfamil and have them send you coupons. There are a lot of formula groups on facebook. Lots of coupon trading. Again, if your a mom that couldn't breastfeed this was a great formula. They also have the gentle version. I never had to use that. I'm happy with formula and will continue to buy

Both of my babies have thrived on this formula and done so well on it. We accidentally switched formulas from a Similac to this cold turkey on one of my babies (miscommunication with husband) and thankfully, he did just fine. No issues at all. Way more pricey than some formulas but I think its the worth the cost- especially if you wait for sales or use coupons.
