Lebenswert is ideal for babies from birth right up until 2 years old.

It’s one of Germany and Austria’s favorite formula brands. And because it’s part of the Holle family, quality control and research-backed nutrition are built in. 

It’s a nutritious, wholesome formula that most babies find easy to digest. 

Lebenswert will work well as your baby’s only milk, or to complement breastmilk.

Here’s how we recommend you do it (it’s very similar to any other formula):

1. Sterilize: Use a sterilizer, sterilizing tablets or boiling water.
2. Prep the water: Boil water and cool to room temperature. This can take around 40 minutes – use a thermometer if you want to be sure. Pour half the water you need into the bottle.
3. Add the powder: Use a measuring scoop (you should get one in the box) to measure the right amount of formula powder. Tip it into the bottle.
4. Shake and serve: Shake the bottle, add the rest of the water, and shake again. Now, all you need is a hungry baby…

Keep your baby’s little tummy happy and healthy by following these simple rules:

• Check the expiration date before you use (we only sell formula with at least [x] months left)
• Once you’ve opened the seal on your formula, use it within 3 weeks.
• Prep each bottle fresh, and throw out made-up formula milk after an hour – even if your baby hasn’t drunk much. 
• Don’t use your microwave to heat bottles – this can cause dangerous hot spots (even if you shake)
• Keep formula containers somewhere cool, dark and dry.

Lebenswert was created by Holle in 2009, as an alternative to their own formulas. 

The brand quickly became a favorite for families in Germany and Austria. And Lebenswert provides all the quality and nutrition you’d expect from any Holle formula. As part of the family, they’re backed by the same decades of research and experience. 

The milk they use comes from farms that meet the Bioland standard, where cows can graze freely. The result is a clean, tasty formula that babies love.

Lebenswert is good for babies from birth to 2 years old. 

Clean and wholesome, it provides the ideal balance of nutrients and is easy for most babies to digest.

Stage 1 is starch-free – great for newborns who can have sensitive tummies. Stage 2 and 3 include a mild organic starch to help give active crawlers and walkers the energy they need to explore the world.

Lebenswert comes in 3 different stages. 

Stage 1 is for babies from birth to 6 months. Stage 2 is for 6-10 months. And Stage 3 for 10 months+. 

Completely. Lebenswert is made using organic milk from farms in Austria and Germany that meet the Bioland organic standard – tougher even than EU standards.

Yes. Lebenswert includes the ideal balance of nutrition – proteins, healthy fats and natural carbs – along with essential vitamins including A, C, D and E K and B Complex.

It’s a great choice. It’s made using natural organic milk and is easy for most babies to digest. Stage 1 is also starch-free – because many younger babies struggle with starch.
