Brief Answer:
Best powder for batter breast milk

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.



Iron-fortified rice cereal is best to mix with breast milk,as human milk is a poor source of iron [0.21 mg/100 ml as compared to Cow's milk(1.5 mg/100 ml)].
Healthcare experts recommend baby's first foods be iron-rich .
