I found out the doctors are recommending vitamin D drops for infants. Yet they're loaded with all sorts of junk, like caramel color, polysorbate, etc. Sunlight produces vitamin D, helps break down bilirubin, and produces other beneficial substances. I know which one I'd choose.

The sugarless formula has no artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives, so it won't interfere with feeding.
