European Goat Milk
What it is:
Our grass-fed goats live on over 100 family-run farms in the Netherlands and supply the milk for our formula. Goat milk is made up of proteins called whey and casein, lactose, and some other very complex carbohydrates called oligosaccharides, and important fatty acids.
What it does:
Goat milk more closely resembles breast milk and naturally contains a higher level of A2 ß-casein proteins that are different from the A1 ß-casein proteins in cow milk. A higher proportion of A2 proteins may provide comfort and prevent tummy troubles.¹⁻² The naturally occurring oligosaccharides in goat milk help support a healthy gut and immune system.³⁻⁴
Lactose
What it is:
Lactose is a milk sugar naturally occurring in all milks (including breast milk) and is the main carbohydrate source of goat milk. It is molecularly identical in all milk, including breast milk.
What it does:
Additional lactose is added to our formula to resemble the levels in breast milk. Lactose is critical for optimal growth and development because it provides energy to all the cells of the body, especially those in the developing brain. Lactose also contributes to the absorption of calcium, helps regulate gut microbiota, and supports immune function.
Premium Fat Blend
What it is:
Our premium plant-based fat blend is designed to specifically match the fatty acid profile of breast milk, including beta-palmitate.⁵ The fatty acids in beta-palmitate are arranged as oleic-palmitic-oleic (OPO) to better match breast milk, as opposed to palmitic-oleic-palmitic (POP),⁵⁻⁶ like in other formulas.
What it does:
The unique structure of beta-palmitate helps to promote softer stools and improved consistency, and may increase calcium and fat absorption.⁵ This is the reason babies feel more comfortable, may cry less, and report improved sleep,⁷⁻⁸ so parents can sleep better too.
DHA & ARA (Plant based)
What it is:
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid) are two important fatty acids found in breast milk that are necessary for developing brains and vision.⁹⁻¹¹ We use plant-based sources for both our DHA and ARA.
What it does:
DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid that is crucial for cognitive, visual, and neurological development for children. ARA is an omega-6 fatty acid that supports normal cognitive development, as well as the repair and growth of muscle tissue. Both are fundamental components of the developing nervous system.
Goat Whey Protein
What it is:
Whey is a type of protein naturally found in milk. Premium, non-GMO goat whey protein is added to our formula to adapt the ratio of whey to casein (60:40) to more closely resemble breast milk.
What is does:
Goat whey protein concentrate is high-quality protein that supports a wide range of body functions, including structural support, healthy growth and development, and a robust immune system.
Prebiotics
What it is:
Prebiotics are non-digestible dietary fibers. When broken down, they provide fuel or 'food' for the good bacteria in the gut. Our formula contains natural oligosaccharides and added galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) prebiotics.¹²⁻¹⁴
What it does:
GOS has been demonstrated in clinical studies to improve gut function and act as good bacteria in the intestine, supporting immune functions. Prebiotics help to improve stool consistency by preventing hard stools and constipation.¹⁵⁻¹⁸
Iron
What it is:
Iron is an essential mineral that is found in every cell in the body, and it's necessary for growth and development.
What it does:
Iron is necessary for the formation of blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. It is also responsible for energy metabolism. Iron begins to drop in most babies between 6-12 months of age.

KUKabrita USA2 hours agoThank you for your wonderful review, Melissa!
We are so thrilled that your little ones are loving Kabrita! 💙🍼🐐 - Jessica N.Verified BuyerRated 2 out of 5 starsYesterdayThe scoop!!!
Why in the world is the scoop in the bottom of the container!!?? I had to dig all around in the formula for it!! And the top doesn’t stay on the container very well. The formula is fine but quality of other things, I think I’ll stick with Kendamill
KUKabrita USAYesterdayThank you for sharing your feedback, Jessica . We appreciate your comments regarding the scoop placement and container lid. Your input helps us identify areas for improvement.
In case it is helpful, the next time you open a can, occasionally the scoop will settle in the powder. Try tilting the tin and tapping gently against the side to displace the powder. This should help you locate the scoop. As always, please feel free to contact Customer Service if you have any questions. - Justyna M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 starsYesterdayGreat Formula for Upset Stomach!
The transition from breastfeeding to Kabrita formula has been a game changer for me. Kabrita formula has helped regulate any digestive issues my newborn was experiencing the first few weeks after birth. Now I exclusively feed with Kabrita formula and am very happy I made the change!

I thought the intro can was a great way to introduce this formula to my infant and test to see if she would like it. I approved of the smell and taste before giving it to her, as well. I can report that she has happily taken to it and we've seen no tummy issues.
