Dr. Kuehn is a board-certified pediatrician and neonatologist and the Chief Medical Officer at ByHeart. With her vast work and research on pregnancy, early life exposures, and their impact on growth and development, she believes that early nutrition is the foundation for lifelong health.
She joins me to discuss the challenges, concerns, and considerations families face when making decisions about feeding their newborns and babies, especially when choosing from the variety of infant formula available on the market.
Breast milk is the gold standard in infant nutrition, but it’s not an option for all parents.
We chat about the importance of parents being confident when deciding which formula to offer their baby. The mission of ByHeart is to close the gap between infant formulas and breast milk, alleviating some of the fears parents have when choosing baby formulas.
There are many FDA regulations for the infant formula industry. In developing their infant formula, ByHeart utilized research and innovation, which led them to become the fourth fully integrated infant formula brand in the US.
Dr. Kuehn highlights the importance of providing babies with a higher quality protein and essential macronutrients. Acknowledging the immunity properties of breast milk, she says that ByHeart’s formula contains an entire complex of ingredients targeted toward providing immune support to babies.
She also shares tips on how healthcare providers can help parents feel more confident about infant formula and shares her insights on the future of infant formula, including the latest innovation and developments happening within the industry.
