Enfamil® believes every baby deserves to get omega-3 DHA, an important nutrient found in breastmilk, in amounts recommended by global experts, like the World Health Organization. But about 1.9 million babies drinking Similac‡ don’t get DHA in this expert-recommended amount and, in fact, get less than half† the DHA that Enfamil provides.
That’s why we are petitioning other brands like Similac to #RaiseTheDHA in their formula. And that’s why we are making it easier for Similac-drinking babies to get DHA as experts recommend with our switch to Enfamil from Similac offer. Let’s #RaiseTheDHA for all babies.
Sign the petition to help #RaiseTheDHA for all.
