    Discover the Bebe M Formula Difference

    Bebe M infant formula is a pioneer of plant-based nutrition with a cleverly crafted solution for babies that require a dairy-free diet and struggle with regurgitation. 

    Bebe M formula features a revolutionary base of organic rice protein hydrolysate—a technical term for proteins broken into smaller pieces—designed to be gentle on your baby’s delicate tummy. 

    Research proves that hypoallergenic rice-based formula is a safe and nutritious option for infants with cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA). Bebe M is also an anti-reflux formula and is suitable for babies with lactose intolerance.

    Bebe M Stage 1 plant-based formula has been a life-saving solution for little ones who cannot consume dairy. 

    We love this formula. Bebe M has been great for my son, who rejected all the prescription dairy-free milks when moving from breastfeeding, but he didn’t even flinch trying this one. We’ve never looked back!”
    - Robert V. Bebe M formula Stage 1 customer

    Through our examination of customer responses, we found that sensitive babies tolerated this formula well and easily took to the taste of the milk compared with other vegan baby formulas. Ultimately, parents described it as a game changer for their baby’s feeding issues. 

    Unique Features of Bebe M Formula Stage 1 

    1. Hypoallergenic 🪶 - Rice is known to be a relatively low-allergenic food, and this formula is crafted without dairy, soy, gluten, or fish oil. This allergy-friendly recipe delivers gentle nutrition for newborns with special dietary needs.
    2. Reduces spit up 💦 - Bebe M is crafted with organic carob seed flour and cornstarch to achieve a creamy consistency that stays in tiny tummies better. Studies reveal that cornstarch-thickened formula lessens spit-up and improves infant growth.
    3. 100% plant-based 🌱 - All ingredients in Bebe M are sourced from plant origins, from the rice-based formula milk down to the micronutrients like vitamin D from lichen instead of sheep’s wool. Bebe M offers a fully vegetarian and vegan infant formula.
    4. Maximized nutrient preservation 🛡️ - Instead of using high heat treatments which can destroy important nutrients, Bebe M uses a special cold processing method that preserves the nutritional value of ingredients and minimizes environmental impacts. 

    Bebe M formula Stage 1 is an organic infant formula suitable for newborns up until 6 months of age as a complete source of nutrition. It may be offered in addition to breast milk or as a replacement for nursing. 

    This rice-based vegan formula range also includes Bebe M Stage 2 and Bebe M Stage 3 to accompany your little one on their weaning journey.

    Is Bebe Mandorle (Bebe M) Rice-Based formula lactose-free?
    Yes, Bebe Mandorle (Bebe M) Rice-Based formula is lactose-free.

    Why does the preparation taste different?
    Although rice protein hydrolysate is excellent for digestion, Bebe M formula does have a slight bitterness in taste. However, there is no problem with the product and no risk in feeding it to your baby. From experience, we know that babies generally accept and enjoy this formula. Babies' taste buds are different from those of adults, and their appreciation for tastes is also different!

    Why are the texture and color so unusual?
    In order to meet regulatory requirements, organic rice protein hydrolysate can vary in color and give Bebe M infant formulas a beige to light beige color. The “wet sand” texture is related to two factors: The mix of the powdered ingredients with the cold-pressed vegetable oils. The oils penetrate the powder, giving it a greasy texture that can form clumps, which are easily broken up by touch. Secondly, the fineness of the protein hydrolysate powder causes it to clump together.

    Why are there small shavings in the prepared bottle?
    The addition of coconut oil in a cold manufacturing process can lead to the formation of small white particles (coconut shavings). They can be larger than 1mm and dissolve after reconstitution with hot water and strong agitation. However, they can still limit the proper flow of a teat with small holes. If required, it is recommended to use teats with larger holes.

    Where can I buy Bebe Mandorle (Bebe M) Rice-Based formula?
    You can buy Bebe M formula on the Organic's Best online store.

    How should I prepare Bebe Mandorle (Bebe M) Rice-Based formula?
    To make Bebe M formula preparation easier, it is best to add the powder first, then the water. Shake well from right to left, then from top to bottom to avoid blocking the teat. Dissolve the formula powder with water at 40°C for better solubility and dispersion. The bottle is fed to babies at 37°C, at body and breast milk temperature. Use a 3-speed teat if possible. Please check the preparation tab for further instructions.

    What is the storage life of Bebe Mandorle (Bebe M) Rice-Based formula?
    When the container of Bebe M formula remains unopened and stored in a cool, dry place, it can be used up until the expiration date printed on the package. Once you open the formula container, it should be used within 3 to 4 weeks.

    How long does the prepared formula last?
    Ideally, you should be preparing a bottle just before you feed. Storing or freezing formula is not recommended. The prepared formula is good for 2 hours at room temperature if unused and 1 hour once feeding has begun. Make sure to throw away any remaining formula after feeding.
