Almiron 1 Pronutra

Almiron 1 Pronutra® is a nutritionally complete, EU-compliant starter formula designed for healthy term infants from birth up to six months. It incorporates Nutricia’s Pronutra‑ADVANCE® blend—a carefully developed formula of prebiotic fibers (scGOS/lcFOS 9:1), DHA, ARA, and postbiotics, structurally modeled after breastmilk to support cognitive and immune development, digestion, and overall growth

Key Features:

• Prebiotic fiber blend scGOS/lcFOS (9:1 ratio) supporting healthy gut microbiome and stool regulation

• HMO‑like postbiotics (3‑GL) for immune support and digestive health

• DHA & ARA fatty acids, required by EU regulations, for brain and visual development

• Palm-oil free blend to promote better tolerance and reduced reflux risk

• No added maltodextrin, using lactose as the primary carbohydrate source (with milk-based ingredients)

Usage Instructions:

1. Wash hands and sterilize feeding equipment per instructions.

2. Boil fresh drinking water; cool to approximately 40 °C.

3. Use only the supplied scoop; level it accurately—do not press down powder.

4. Add water first, then powder as specified in the feeding chart.

5. Shake vigorously for ≥10 seconds, then cool under running water to around 37 °C before feeding.

6. Feed immediately and discard any leftovers after 1 hour.

7. Store the sealed tin in a cool, dry place; use within 3 weeks of opening
