The healthiest choice is breastmilk.
All infant formulas are basically the same.
NONE of them contain the immunities that breastmilk provides.

all formula is regulated by the FDA they all have to pass standards. I used walmart's parent's choice and he is perfectly healthy. He just turned 2 last week, he was born weighing 8Lbs 8oz and 19" with a big round head even though he was delivered naturally vaginally. And now 2 years later he is 35" and 35Lbs. It fit my budget and my son is healthy. I have no conplaints. You have to find what is best for your child. A friend of mine, we were just talking about this tonight too, she went through 3 different kinds before she found one that her daughter didn't throw up or cause constipation.
Just a note to anyone who thinks this. Just because breast milk is best for babies doesn't mean that is the be all end all no othe roption. I couldn't breast feed my son mecause I had to go on medications that wouldn't allow me to breastfeed him. And no you don't bond any less feeding by bottle. My son got the chance to bond with both myself and my husband equally by being bottle fed. I wish that people would stop treating us parents who bottle feed like we are bad parents. I was bottle fed because I was and am again lactose intollerant. It just doesn't work for everyone.

I've always used Enfamil, but they're all healthy. Infant formula is regulated by the FDA. They have to put a certain amount of nutrients in all formula.
I have to add that I am all for breastfeeding. I'm actually breastfeeding exclusively right now. But do we have to answer a formula question with "breastmilk is best," and then give thumbs down to all the people who answered the question that was asked?

In used SMA for both my boys, it's casein ( protein ) based unlike most other formulas which are whey based. Both of them thrived on it.
I tried the karicare, but my first son just kept throwing it up.

I used similac, soy formula, I tried enfamil but my daughter just puked it back up (much like the scene in the Exorsist). The "healthies" is what is best for YOUR baby. You might want to discuss that with your baby's doctor.

just stop where the milk is and read the labels on all of them and you will find out which one is better for your baby. when I buy something for my kid I always read all of the items available first before buying anything.

Hi, I would say you should ask your doctor this question because he knows best what to recommend to your baby!
