HiPP Organic Baby Formula Stage 1 for Newborns 0 to 6 Months

HiPP Organic Baby Formula Stage 1 is a German Combiotik starter formula designed for babies from birth through 6 months. Made by a family-owned company with over 125 years of farming heritage, it is certified EU organic and carries the strict HiPP Organic Seal. As with any feeding decision, consulting your pediatrician before introducing formula is always a good first step.

A Family Farm Legacy Since 1899

HiPP was founded in 1899 and has been family-run for four generations, with Stefan Hipp leading the company today from Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm, Germany. Every stage of production, from the organic farms to the finished can, is held to standards that exceed standard EU organic requirements.

The milk used in Stage 1 carries the EU organic certification (DE-OKO-001) as well as the German Bio-Siegel and HiPP's own independent Bio-Seal, a mark that represents additional quality checks HiPP applies on top of the legal minimum. The result is a formula that parents in Germany and across Europe have trusted for decades.

Who Stage 1 Is For

Stage 1 is formulated for newborns from 0 to 6 months and can be used as a complete source of nutrition during that window. It belongs to HiPP's German Combiotik line, which combines GOS (galacto-oligosaccharide) prebiotics and probiotic cultures to support a balanced gut environment, mirroring two components naturally present in breast milk.

Breast milk remains the gold standard for infant nutrition and the preferred first choice whenever possible. When formula is the right fit for your family, HiPP German Stage 1 offers a thoroughly tested, organically sourced option that aligns with modern European nutritional standards.

Ingredients and Composition

The protein base is organic skimmed cow's milk combined with an organic whey product, giving a whey-to-casein ratio appropriate for young infants. Carbohydrates come from lactose as the primary sugar, with a mild organic starch also present. The formula contains organic palm oil as part of the vegetable oil blend, along with other organic oils to supply essential fatty acids.

DHA is sourced from fish oil, meeting the EU's mandatory DHA requirement for infant formula. ARA is also present, sourced from Mortierella alpina oil. The Combiotik system adds GOS prebiotics and probiotic cultures to the formula. No soy protein is used. The formula is Halal-certified and is not Demeter-certified, only EU organic.

European Quality, Shipped to the US

Every can sold by Organic Formula Europe is sourced directly from European supply chains and shipped to the United States. You receive the same product sold in German pharmacies and supermarkets, unopened and within date, with the European DD/MM/YYYY expiry printed on the base of the can.

HiPP German formula is manufactured in Germany under EU food safety regulations, which set mandatory DHA levels and strict limits on pesticides and additives. This is a different regulatory environment from US-domestic formula, so reviewing the label with your pediatrician before switching is worthwhile.

Preparation and Everyday Use

Always prepare formula fresh using the feeding chart and scoop printed on the can, and follow the specific water temperature guidance on the packaging. Powdered infant formula is not sterile, so using appropriately hot water and discarding any unused prepared formula within the timeframe on the label is important for your baby's safety.

Once opened, use the contents within 3 weeks and store the sealed can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

How to Prepare Powdered Formula

  1. Boil fresh water for each feed. Let it cool down to about 120 °F (50 °C) before mixing with the formula.
  2. Pour about two-thirds of the required water into a clean, sterilized bottle.
  3. Use only the scoop provided with your formula pack (sizes may vary). Add the correct number of level scoops - 1 scoop per 1 oz / 30 ml of water.
  4. Close the bottle with the nipple and cap. Shake vigorously until all powder is dissolved.
  5. Add the remaining water and shake again.
  6. Cool to drinking temperature (approx. 98 °F / 37 °C). Always test the milk temperature before feeding to avoid scalding your baby.

Important Information

  1. Only use the scoop included in the package.
  2. Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated. Do not add extra water, scoops, or other ingredients.
  3. Always prepare fresh. Do not prepare bottles in advance. Discard any leftovers after each feed.
  4. Never heat bottles in the microwave - hot spots can cause burns.
  5. Once opened, use formula within 21 days. Never use beyond the expiration date printed on the box/tin (format: day/month/year).
  6. Avoid storing formula in hot or humid environments.

Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for infants. Please consult your pediatrician before introducing or changing infant formula. Infant formula is designed to meet the nutritional requirements of infants according to age. It contains carbohydrates, which are an essential part of infant nutrition. As with any carbohydrate-containing liquids, frequent or prolonged contact with the teeth may increase the risk of tooth decay. To support healthy dental habits, avoid extended bottle use and encourage transitioning to a cup when age-appropriate.

Packaging may change without notice. Always follow the preparation, storage, and feeding instructions provided on your product packaging.

Why is HiPP Organic Baby Formula Stage 1 suitable for newborns up to 6 months?

HiPP Stage 1 is specially formulated to meet the nutritional needs of infants from birth. Made from the finest organic cow's milk from grass-fed cows, this formula contains essential vitamins A, C, and D, along with vital minerals like iron and calcium. The formula's composition closely mimics breast milk, featuring prebiotics and probiotics for digestive health as well as Omega-3 and Omega-6 LCPs (DHA and ARA) that support brain and eye development. With lactose as the main carbohydrate and no added sugars or starch, it provides gentle nutrition that's easy for tiny tummies to digest.

What makes HiPP Organic Stage 1 different from conventional formulas?

HiPP Stage 1 stands apart through its commitment to organic excellence. Produced on one of the world's first carbon-neutral farms, this formula exceeds EU organic certification standards, which are significantly stricter than US requirements. It's completely free from GMOs, steroids, pesticides, soy, refined sugar, growth hormones, and non-medically necessary antibiotics. The formula contains no wheat, soy, or peanut ingredients, making it suitable for babies with common sensitivities. Additionally, HiPP UK Stage 1 now comes in a convenient, 100% recyclable 800-gram can, demonstrating the brand's commitment to sustainability.

How do prebiotics and probiotics in HiPP Stage 1 benefit my baby?

The prebiotics and probiotics in HiPP Stage 1 work together to support your baby's developing digestive system and immune health. These beneficial ingredients help establish healthy gut bacteria, similar to what naturally occurs in breastfed babies. The organic galacto-oligosaccharides derived from organic lactose act as food for beneficial bacteria, promoting a balanced gut microbiome. This can lead to better digestion, reduced digestive discomfort, and enhanced immune support during your baby's crucial first months. When choosing Organic Formulas for your little one, these added beneficial ingredients make a significant difference in supporting overall well-being.

What should I know about preparing and storing HiPP Stage 1 formula?

Each 800-gram can of HiPP Stage 1 yields approximately 6,350 ml (210 fl oz) of prepared formula and includes a specially designed 4.3-gram measuring spoon for accurate portioning. Always follow the preparation instructions on the packaging, using freshly boiled water cooled to the appropriate temperature. It's important to note that HiPP uses European date notation (DD/MM/YYYY) for expiration dates. For optimal freshness, order your formula with adequate lead time to account for shipping variables. Once opened, store the can in a cool, dry place and use within the timeframe specified on the packaging. When exploring our HiPP Formula Stage 1 collection, you'll find various options to suit your baby's needs.

Can HiPP Stage 1 be used alongside breastfeeding?

Yes, HiPP Stage 1 is an excellent choice for combination feeding or as a complete alternative to breastfeeding. Its carefully balanced composition makes it suitable for babies transitioning from breast milk or for mothers who choose to supplement. The formula's design aims to complement the nutritional profile of breast milk while providing consistent, reliable nutrition. However, we always recommend consulting with your pediatrician before making any feeding decisions to ensure the best choice for your baby's unique needs. Remember that every baby is different, and what works best will depend on your individual circumstances and your baby's specific requirements.
