Does Lactogrow® contain any sugar?
Lactogrow® does not contain any added sucrose. It contains lactose, which is a form of sugar that comes from milk. Lactose is a good form of sugar in comparison to sucrose.
Sugar is a source of energy, but needs to be consumed in recommended portions, that is 4-5 tsp a day as it is also low in other nutrients like vitamins & minerals. Eating too much sugar increases the chance of the child being overweight. Lactogrow® contains lactose that provides sweetness to the drink and we recommend no further addition of table sugar to the drink. Please contact your Pediatrician for further details.
