Baby formula milk: what's actually in it?

Please ask a paediatrician or other healthcare professional before choosing, changing or stopping any infant formula. This page gives no recommendation, no "best" pick, and no feeding advice. It only compares what is printed in the ingredient lists of formula sold in Singapore, so the differences between products can be seen in one place.

Formula is sold in stages. Stage 1 is infant formula (from birth). Stage 2 is follow-on formula (from about 6 months). Stage 3 is growing-up / toddler formula (from about 12 months). The stage matters: the same brand's Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 lists are different products, and they are panelled separately below. Special formulas — for example lactose-free, partially hydrolysed / hypoallergenic (HA), anti-reflux (AR) and soy-based formulas — are also different products, and are labelled as such where panelled. This page does not give a health score or a "best" pick.

How to read these lists: almost every formula starts with lactose and/or skimmed / nonfat milk, then a blend of vegetable oils, then whey protein, then prebiotics (usually GOS and/or FOS and polydextrose), then minerals and vitamins, then single-cell oils as sources of DHA and ARA, then small amounts of taurine, inositol, L-carnitine and nucleotides. The differences that show up in the panels are: which oils and in what order; whether the first ingredient is lactose or milk; whether corn syrup solids, glucose syrup solids, maltodextrin or sucrose appear (and where); whether the protein is intact, partially hydrolysed or soy; and which prebiotic / HMO ingredients (for example 2'-fucosyllactose / 2'-FL) are listed.

Stage 3 — growing-up / toddler formula

No Stage 3 product is panelled on this page. Stage 3 lists were not retrieved in full from a Singapore retailer ingredient section in this pass, and a Stage 1 or Stage 2 list must not be presented as the Stage 3 list for the same brand. Stage 3 products seen on sale in Singapore are listed in seen-but-not-verified below, pending a full SG ingredient-section retrieval or a pack photo.

Seen but not verified — do not panel until checked

Nutrition — what the numbers say

No per-100 g (powder) or per-100 ml (prepared) nutrition panel was verified in full in this pass for any panelled product, so no nutrition table is given here. Formula nutrition is printed per 100 g of powder and per 100 ml of prepared formula, and the two bases must not be mixed; per-serving figures (per scoop / per feed) are not converted to per-100 figures. Do not copy a nutrition figure from another stage, another brand, or a US listing onto an SG product.

Seen but not verified (nutrition): Enfamil Pro A+ Stage 1, Enfamil A+ Stage 1, Enfamil Pro A+ Gentlease Stage 1, Similac Follow On Stage 2 (both listings), Similac Total Comfort H.A. Stage 2, NAN Supremepro H.A. Stage 2, NAN Optipro Stage 2, and every product in seen-but-not-verified above. Their ingredient panels are unchanged; their nutrition figures are not estimated here. A pack photo of the nutrition panel (per 100 g powder and per 100 ml prepared, with energy, protein, total fat, saturated fat, carbohydrate, sugars, sodium with salt equivalent = sodium × 2.5 in brackets) closes each one.

No Nutri-Grade is quoted here: Nutri-Grade applies to beverages sold in Singapore, and no Nutri-Grade was found printed on any formula listing in this pass. None has been assigned.

How to read a formula label — the jargon, in plain English

Stage 1 / 2 / 3
Infant (from birth), follow-on (from about 6 months), growing-up / toddler (from about 12 months). The stage is on the front of the tin; the ingredient list changes with it.
Lactose
The sugar naturally present in milk. In most panelled lists it is the first ingredient. Lactose is a sugar, but it is not "added sugar" in the sense of sucrose or corn syrup solids added as a sweetener — the list shows which of those are also present.
Vegetable oil blend
A mix of oils (commonly palm olein, coconut, soybean and sunflower / high-oleic sunflower) used to supply fat. The oils and their order differ by brand — compare the panels, not the front of the tin.
Whey protein concentrate / whey protein hydrolysate
Whey is one of the two main milk proteins. "Concentrate" is intact whey protein; "hydrolysate" is whey protein broken into smaller pieces (partially hydrolysed). HA formulas use hydrolysed protein; the panelled Similac Total Comfort H.A. and NAN HA lists show this.
GOS / FOS / polydextrose
Galacto-oligosaccharides, fructo-oligosaccharides and polydextrose — fibres / prebiotics listed in most panelled formulas. They are not sweeteners.
2'-FL and other HMOs
2'-fucosyllactose and related human milk oligosaccharides (LNT, 3'-SL, 6'-SL, DFL) — listed by name in several Stage 2 panels. The list shows which HMOs a product names; it does not say how much is present unless the pack states it.
DHA / ARA (single-cell oils)
Docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid, supplied from single-cell oils (Mortierella alpina, Crypthecodinium / Schizochytrium) or from fish oil. The source is named in the list — check it if fish is a concern.
Corn syrup solids / glucose syrup solids / maltodextrin / sucrose
Carbohydrate ingredients other than lactose. Where they appear, and how early, differs by product — see the at-a-glance table. Their presence is a fact from the list, not a verdict on the product.
Nucleotides, taurine, inositol, L-carnitine, choline
Small-quantity ingredients listed near the end of most panelled formulas. They appear in nearly every list, so they do not distinguish one brand from another on their own.

Sources and method

Checked 5–6 November 2026 from: FairPrice SG ingredient sections (Enfamil Pro A+ Stage 1, Enfamil A+ Stage 1, Enfamil Pro A+ Gentlease Stage 1, Similac Follow On Stage 2 EyeQ Plus, Similac Follow On Step 2, Similac Total Comfort H.A. Stage 2, NAN Supremepro H.A. Stage 2, NAN Optipro Stage 2 — all panelled; plus partial/truncated FairPrice sections for Enfamil A+ Stage 2, Frisolac Gold Stage 1, Frisolac Gold Stage 2 and Frisolac Gold AR, and the NAN Optipro HA Stage 2 snippet, all in seen-but-not-verified for the reasons given). Watsons SG corroborated the Enfamil Pro A+ Stage 1 list. Open Food Facts US Enfamil lists were checked and deliberately not used as SG packs. Full per-fact source list is in the accompanying research notes. Nutrition section added 5–6 November 2026: no per-100 g / per-100 ml figure was verified in this pass, so no nutrition table is given and no figure is estimated; sugars are total sugars as printed, not added sugars, unless the source states added sugars; salt = sodium × 2.5. Where a full pack list could not be verified, the product is in seen-but-not-verified instead of being panelled. A further web search for Stage 3 lists on 5 November 2026 hit a search rate limit (429); that gap is recorded, not papered over.
