Hi,

Commercial infant formulas r not a brest milk substitute. They don't contain the immunity boosting elements of breast milk which only your body can provide to your baby.

Promil Gold contains unique combination of essential nutrients at proper levels for your growing child. When breast milk is insufficient or unavailable,Promil Gold, a gentle and trusted formula is fortified to help ensure balanced nutrition for healthy children.

Taurine have several health benefits like lower risk of disease and improvement of sports performance. It is possibly safe for children and has no known side effects when used in amounts found in foods.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
