The first 1000 days of life are fundamental to improving the nutrition of future generations. All infants deserve a formula that will support their cognitive and physical development and be produced in a way that will protect the world in which they live.

Löwenzahn Organics designs each stage with the purpose of being a healthy, sustainable, and traceable breastmilk alternative. 

Löwenzahn Organics was founded in 2016 by two German mothers who desire to produce the nutrition they want for their infants. 

Composed following the latest nutritional science, Löwenzahn Organics does not make any compromises during sourcing or manufacturing. 

Löwenzahn Organics takes exceptional care in selecting every ingredient that goes into their formula and only chooses high-quality ingredients from responsible organic production. 

Proclaimed to be the world’s first traceable organic baby food brand, Löwenzahn Organics emphasizes transparency in their ingredients and production processes

Löwenzahn Organics stands for a modern and passionate approach to baby formula. They create infant nutrition sourced from throughout Europe and the EU according to the latest science and nutritional knowledge.

Using organic ingredients, Löwenzahn is certified organic (Bio) by Germany and Austria’s Bio regulations.

European baby formula companies adhere to strict rules and standards that ensure the use of only clean, pure ingredients manufactured and produced in an ecologically responsible manner.

Löwenzahn meets the 98% minimum organic content requirement of the EU.

From soil to production, European organic practices consider animal health, husbandry, and economic and long-term social aspects of production. 

Löwenzahn Organics formulas use EU organic skim milk, milk proteins, lactose, and vegetable oils as their base to mimic breast milk as closely as possible. 

Like mature breast milk, each stage has a 60:40 whey-to-casein ratio that optimally balances milk protein digestibility.

Löwenzahn Organics baby formulas are rich in vitamins and minerals, and relying on the latest scientific research, each stage goes beyond EU standards to include higher omega fatty acids, prebiotics, and amino acids.

The brain grows at its most remarkable rate from birth until about two years old. Over 60% of the brain comprises fat, and the Omega-3 fatty acid DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) makes up around 10-15%. 

DHA is necessary for developing the sensory, perceptual, cognitive, and motor neural (nerve) systems during the brain growth spurt. The DHA-rich parts of the brain are thought to be responsible for activities such as planning, problem-solving, and focused attention.

Löwenzahn Organics formulas use algae-based DHA. This detail adds a better taste and is more sustainable than fish oil. Microalgae can provide your little one with the omega-3 they need without compromising nutritional value or the future world in which your baby will live. 

Mimicking breast milk, Löwenzahn Organics formula contains the prebiotic galactooligosaccharides (GOS) to aid your baby's gut health and digestion.

Oligosaccharides have prebiotic effects accountable for health benefits in infants. These probiotics specifically reach the colon, where selected groups of microflora-positive bacteria use them, specifically bifidobacteria and lactobacilli.

Prebiotics benefit infants by promoting the growth of healthy gut bacteria, supporting the immune system, and stimulating bowel movements and softer stools. 

Palmitic acid represents about 20-25% of the primary fatty acids found in breast milk. Palm oil is a good source of critical palmitic acid. 

Palm oil is commonly added to baby formula to model breast milk’s natural fatty acid profile and maintain similar palmitic acid levels.

Löwenzahn Organics combines the highest standards of organic certification with the latest in nutritional science. Starving to change the infant food manufacturing supply chain to create a more sustainable future, each container of baby formula is free of hormones, steroids, and preservatives. 

EU has a strict system of organic controls, including a rigorous annual inspection process to verify continuing conformance.

Guaranteed 95% organic, sustainable, and traceable nutrition your baby deserves!

One of the many benefits of Löwenzahn Organics baby formula is the labeling for developmental and nutritional needs over specific ages. This thoughtful design is called stages and allows for individual care of each unique little one.

Newborns have a susceptible digestive system that is sometimes well-suited to handle complex carbohydrates. Löwenzahn has thoughtfully designed a formula that combines the gentleness of the PRE stage with the nutrition of the 0-6 month baby formula. 

Mimicking breast milk, lactose is the only source of carbohydrates in stage PRE / 1. Lactose provides the perfect energy for growth and development during these early days. 

Löwenzahn Organics Pre/Stage 1 contains prebiotics (GOS) to aid the immature digestive system. Omega fatty acids like DHA and ARA are added in amounts supported by current scientific knowledge as reducing gastrointestinal issues and promoting cognitive development.

Löwenzahn Organics Stage 2 formula is balanced nutrition for use alone or as part of a newly formed solid food diet. 

Exploring the world means busier bodies and minds and additional carbohydrates to keep up. Stage 2 complex carbohydrates are digested more slowly, which helps give your little one energy and a fuller tummy to keep them on the move. 

This formula also contains prebiotics (GOS) that help balance gut flora and omega fatty acids like DHA and ARA, crucial for your little one’s development.

Löwenzahn Organics Stage 3 formula is balanced nutrition for babies ten months of age intended to be part of a primarily solid food diet. 

Mature digestive systems move lactose quickly through the digestive system. A more filling formula is needed to keep your little one satiated longer. Löwenzahn Organics stage 3 has a main carbohydrate of organic maltodextrin and organic starch in addition to the lactose naturally found in the formula's skim milk and whey powder. These complex carbohydrates are digested more slowly for older babies, allowing for sustained energy and fuller tummies. 

Prebiotics (GOS) to further benefit your baby's digestion, omega fatty acids like DHA and ARA, and age-appropriate vitamins and minerals support physical health and cognitive development. 

Löwenzahn Organics, from birth into weaning, is designed to complement or substitute breastmilk. Each stage has balanced nutrition for each specific age. Each stage has strict regulations for the energy levels and macro and micronutrients in baby formulas to ensure your little one has all the necessary nutrients.

Noticable stage differences include Follow-on Formulas with higher levels of iron and more complex carbohydrates to help babies feel more satiated compared to the Stage Pre/1 Formula. 

Stiftung Warentest is a German consumer organization and foundation that unbiasedly investigates and compares goods and services. 

The Stiftung Warentest determines the top infant formula based on nutritional quality, contaminants, packaging, microbiological quality, and other factors. 

The tests were conducted on some of the best German formula brands, each changing the formula market as they continued introducing innovative products known for their outstanding quality. Löwenzahn Organics rose to the top. 

Löwenzahn Organics was praised for the nutritional quality of their formulas and their part in prioritizing environmental welfare. A winning combination for all families!
