What is it and what is it used for? Novalac Ar Plus is made from a blend of carob fiber and tapioca starch to provide a highly digestible food. This is because it is a product designed for children with stomach problems who require specialized nutrition. It also contains partially hydrolyzed milk proteins to help protect children from developing allergic conditions such as dermatitis and asthma. In addition, Novalac has added DHA and choline bitartrate, as these contribute to the babys brain development. It also contains vitamin K, which promotes the formation of the beneficial bacteria necessary for digestion, thus strengthening the newborns stomach. Similarly, it helps optimize the development of the immune system, since approximately 70% of the immune system originates in the stomach. This activity is further enhanced by the presence of vitamin C. It also contains minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which are involved in the formation of bones and teeth, and are accompanied by B vitamins. Who is it for?
