CHAPTER 1

Understanding Caprivita Goat Milk Infant Formula

Giving Every Child the Best Possible Start

The first years of life are a period of extraordinary growth and development. During infancy, nutrition plays a fundamental role in supporting healthy physical growth, brain development, immune function, digestive health, and lifelong wellbeing. When breastfeeding is not possible or is insufficient, selecting a high-quality infant formula becomes one of the most important nutritional decisions parents can make.

Caprivita Goat Milk Infant Formula has been scientifically developed to provide complete and balanced nutrition for infants and young children from birth to 36 months of age. Every formulation is carefully designed to meet internationally recognised nutritional standards while delivering the natural goodness of 100% New Zealand goat milk.

The Caprivita Philosophy: Exceptional nutrition begins with exceptional ingredients combined with advanced nutritional science to support the first 1,000 days of life.

Why 100% New Zealand Makes the Difference

Nature Meets Nutritional Excellence

The quality of an infant formula begins long before production. It starts with the environment, animal health, pasture quality, and the dairy supply chain. New Zealand's temperate climate, fertile soils, and abundant rainfall create ideal conditions for raising healthy dairy goats.

  • High standards of animal welfare and year-round grazing systems.
  • World-class food safety and rigorous export assurance systems.
  • Decades of continuous investment in dairy science and research.
  • Strict traceability from farm collection to final packaged product.

The First 1,000 Days

Building the Foundation for Lifelong Health

The period from conception until a child's second birthday is recognised as one of the most critical stages of human development. Nutrition during this window provides essential building blocks for growth, cognitive development, vision, and immunity.

Birth to 6 Months (Stage 1)

Supports rapid growth, brain development, bone formation, and immune maturation when breastfeeding is not possible.

6 to 12 Months (Stage 2)

Complements complementary foods and weaning diets to support increasing physical activity and brain function.

1 to 3 Years (Stage 3)

Growing-up formula designed to support toddlers through active growth and a wider variety of foods.

Nutrient Primary Support Area
High-quality protein Healthy growth and tissue development
DHA & ARA* Brain and visual development
Iron Cognitive development and normal blood formation
Calcium & Vitamin D Healthy bones and teeth
Zinc Growth and immune function
GOS & FOS* Healthy digestive microbiome (*where included)

Did You Know?

By a child's second birthday, the brain has reached approximately 80–85% of its adult size, making the first 1,000 days one of the most active periods of neurological development.
