I am a nursing mom, but needed to supplement my pumping at work. After the birth of my first child, I was unsure what to do, and I wasn't too keen on any of the formulas I'd seen friends using, as they all smelled metallic to me and did not look at all like something I would want my child to injest. A friend, with 3 kids, recommended Good Start, not only because it was a super value on all levels, but also because it was digested most like breast-milk, therefore her kids never experienced discomfort as a result of her using it. I tried Good Start, and was so pleased with the smell and consistency of it, as well as my child's reaction to it, I have been recommending it to friends with new ones ever since. Now, after the birth of my second child, when the time came to supplement, it was a no-brainer to purchase the Good Start. My children have never had any problems with this formula, and many of my friends whose children used other formula brands have had digestion issue after issue. I couldn't be happier with this product. In our house, Good Start continues to reign supreme.

My daugher had to be put on formula at 4 weeks, and it was really hard on her stomach. My doctor kept pushing other brands, and we tried them all! She was fussy, irritable, and could barely sleep. Plus, she has acid reflux, so that complicated matters. Well, after taking things into my own hands and doing my own research, I tried Nestle GoodSTart, and boy am I glad I did! The proteins are finally gentle enough for my now 9-week old to digest, and she is such a different baby now! I am mad at myself for not trying this sooner! It really does make a difference for some babies, especially those that are very sensitive or premature. Plus, it's cheaper than most others!

About 5 months ago, I noticed NGSupreme was not as avble in all the stores i was buying it at. It came down to 1 store and then- GONE! I was in a panic. I emailed Nestle and they responded with try [...]. It was the way to go and my son and I were content. then a month or 2 went buy and I got another email from Nestle. I read it and was besides myself. It mentioned that it would be discontinuing NGSupreme/Nourish Plus at the end of Dec 2009!!!! I then went on [...] and wrote my review as I am now, and cut and pasted the exact words from Nestle, and asked all concerned parents to email nestle and fight to keep the only formula without all those harmfull extras. What's sad is that I went on to see my review and it was altered. The info I wanted to get out and share with all of you was not there!!! I was outraged! and guess what [...] is TEMP OUT OF STOCK! Can't believe there was and is NO warning that our favorite formula may absolete any day now! We all need to email Nestle and share our experiences and fight to keep this formula around for our future children. Please pass the word around get support and have as many people email Nestle until we get a straight answer!!!! I have emailed them again and have not heard anything!!!!!!!!! Anyone out there who is listening and have other ideas and ways to accomplish this and just if you have emailed them please comment on this site.

My baby was the most colicky baby I'd ever seen. We tried everything to make her tummy feel better. I was told by our midwife to find a formula without DHA added as that can cause stomach upset sometimes. This is the only one I could find. She does great with it and seems to be able to tell the difference between this one in the purple can and the orange one with DHA added.

This was a great deal buying in bulk. It saved me time and money buying it on-line. I normally buy bi-weekly but tried to do it this way too keep myself from going to WalMart and spending more money on other things I did not need. My baby loves this formula and is easy to digest.

When I became ill due to pneumonia, I stopped making breastmilk and needed to supplement by baby. I've tried everything under the sun, and to no avail, my baby was constipated. I've tried the soy formulas and that made her projectile vomit. Finally I found this formula and everything is in harmony and the way it should be. She makes regular bowel movements and seems A LOT happier. I'm recommend trying this before switching to soy if your baby is having issues.

Once I brought my son home from the hospital, he remained on the formula the hospital was giving him. This formula was constipating him, so I ended up switching him onto another one. Now, this one brought on diarrhea. So, I did my research and switched him over to Nestle Good Start. He automatically was regulated. No more diarrhea or constipation. Thanks to the Nestle company.

As a mother and degreed professional (in chemistry) with a 23 year career in food safety and quality, I can attest to this product being one of if not the best on the market. Baby number 7 in our family (5 of my sisters and 2 of mine) have thrived with no problems on this formula. All are healthy, well adjusted children, the youngest 2 months old. You can't go wrong. Also the value here is the best that I have researched! Thanks to Amazon for free shipping!

My baby-girl just loves this formula. When I fed her the first time with Good Start, she started to sleep through the night. It may be because of the easy proteins in this formula, we don't know, but from now on we are buying only this brand.

I have purchased this product at the store for both sons (3yrs & 8mos) but it was so nice to order the case and has it on hand when a can was empty. It was also cheaper per can than at any store I can get it at.
