Gentle® Baby Formula for Fussiness or Gas


Ingredients and Nutritional Info
Breastfeeding is always best for your baby. Mother’s milk contains hormones, active enzymes and other compounds that cannot be replicated in any baby formula. But if you choose to supplement breastfeeding with formula or to formula-feed exclusively, there is simply nothing better than new Bright Beginnings Gentle with DHA.

If your baby is experiencing fussiness or gas, Bright Beginnings® Gentle® is a complete and wholesome choice that is easy to digest. In fact, this “gentle” baby formula contains partially broken down whey protein with one-fourth the amount of lactose in standard, milk-based formulas.

The formula is also less expensive than the higher-priced national brand, Enfamil® Gentlease® LIPIL®.*

Bright Beginnings® Gentle® Provides Complete Nutrition

While no formula can provide all the advantages of breast milk, Bright Beginnings® Gentle® is designed like breast milk to satisfy the unique nutritional needs of growing infants.

Our formula meets all FDA standards and the recommendations of the World Health Organization for DHA and ARA (1). Plus, it provides the benefits of the lipids DHA and ARA at a significant savings compared to other national DHA brands.

Benefits of DHA & ARA in Baby Formula


DHA and ARA occur naturally in mother's milk and belong to a class of nutrients called lipids, or fats. Lipids are an essential part of a healthy diet because they are important structural components of vital organs, particularly an infant's brain and eyes.

Interest in DHA and ARA has increased following several scientific studies showing that infants fed formula supplemented with DHA and ARA gained intellectual and visual benefits not found in infants who were fed standard formulas without DHA and ARA. In fact, studies have indicated improvements in mental and visual development, problem solving skills, and IQ tests for infants fed formula with the lipids DHA & ARA (2).

Product Highlights


Bright Beginnings® Gentle®:

  • Is easy to digest and contains partially broken down whey protein with ¼ the lactose of a standard, milk-based formula
