Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was raised on Enfamil as far back as 1970, so Enfamil has been in my family for a long time. When my wife and I had babies, I knew which formula I wanted for them when they were ready. Even the hospital staff and our pediatrician recommended Enfamil. We used it for about 12 months before Enfamil changed their product, and for 2 months after the "new & improved" formula. With the new formula, Enfamil switched to corn syrup solids, which is essentially the same sugar as high fructose corn syrup (just in a solid, powder form). If you check Wikipedia or any other online resource for corn syrup solids, you'll find the same info. Enfamil increased the amount of sugar in their new formula to make it "taste better". There is nearly twice as much sugar as protein now, and the corn syrup is one of the main ingredients (2nd ingredient, if I'm not mistaken). So instead of giving your infants & toddlers a good, healthy, protein-rich meal, you're giving them lots of sugar and then some secondary sustenance. Within 2 days of starting my girls on the new Enfamil formula, I noticed their nap times diminish, mood swings increase and overall happiness decline. There was little to no GI difference, but the outward behavior was definitely affected - tired, whiny, moody, less smiley, etc. As soon as I discovered the fact that the new Enfamil was so high in corn syrup (about 7 weeks later, much to my personal disappointment), I immediately switched to a 100% organic formula from Whole Foods (also found on Amazon). Within 2-3 days, my girls were back to normal - happy, cheerful, napping for hours like before and looking brighter. I'm not a doctor or scientist, and I'm definitely not some hippie-organic nut, but I directly attribute the change in mood/health to the fact that Enfamil's formula is now packed with sugar like it's some soda or Snapple-esque drink for babies. It's like when some mega-sugar cereal boasts that is it "fortified with 7 vitamins", but you know it's a bunch of marketing baloney and that each bowl is rife with sugar. Do yourself a favor and look out for this scenario with your kids. If you *must* buy Enfamil, maybe check with a doctor to see if the corn syrup is really recommended for your growing babies and toddlers. Babies need the best possible nutrients. Think twice before loading your babies up with unnecessary sugars. Think twice before buying this Enfamil product; at least until someone at Enfamil fixes their huge mistake of changing a good formula for the worse.
