<h2>Whole Goat Milk Formula is Unique</h2>
<p>Goat milk has unique properties that allow a different approach to formula.<br />

<h5>Naturally soft and easy to digest protein^1-5^</h5>
<ul>
<li>Compared to cow milk, goat milk has lower levels of a protein called alpha-S1 casein, which makes goat milk easier to digest as it naturally forms a softer curd in the stomach.^1-6^</li>
<li>Like breastmilk, goat milk is naturally A2. A2 milk has been shown to support digestive comfort, when compared to traditional cow milk containing A1 beta-casein.^7-9^</li>
<li>Standard cow milk formula is whey-adjusted, meaning whey proteins are added to the formula to make it easier to digest.</li>
</ul>
<p>{space}<br />
Capricare® whole goat milk formula does not need to add whey as the proteins are already easy to digest. Not adding whey means Capricare® contains lower levels of beta-lactoglobulin, a key allergen that is not present in breastmilk.^1,2,5^</p>


<h5>~50% of the fat source is goat milk fat, naturally delivering bioactives</h5>
<ul>
<li>Naturally delivers Milk Fat Globule Membrane (MFGM) – MFGM delivers key components that support brain development and gut maturation^10-12^</li>
<li>Delivers naturally higher levels of sn-2 palmitic acid* for softer stools^13^</li>
<li>Naturally delivers around 2x cholesterol levels* &#8211; cholesterol is essential for brain development^10-12^</li>
</ul>


<h5>Minimally processed</h5>
<ul>
<li>Capricare® is made from only fresh whole goat milk as a source of protein, with no processed whey</li>
<li>Made using a gentle processing technique to protect the natural goodness of goat milk, and delivers a good tasting formula that babies love</li>

<h6>Mean reduction in regurgitation frequency (times/week) from randomisation to 4 weeks</h6>


<p>A trend towards a greater reduction in parent–reported infant regurgitation was observed in infants transitioning from breastfeeding to whole goat milk formula, compared to standard cow milk formula. A total of 80 infants were randomised to investigate the impact on regurgitation frequency over 4 weeks when transitioning from breastfeeding to formula feeding. Despite a higher regurgitation frequency in the whole goat milk formula group at baseline, both groups had similar regurgitation frequency after 4 weeks.^2^</p>

<h3>Unique attributes of Capricare® for digestive comfort</h3>


<h5>Naturally soft curd due to lower alpha-S1 casein levels</h5>
<p>Human milk naturally forms a soft curd in the stomach thanks to its naturally lower levels* of a protein called alpha-S1 casein (~5% of protein^5^). Like human milk, the goat milk used in Capricare® also has naturally lower levels* of alpha-S1 casein (~8%^4^), also leading to a naturally soft curd.^5^ Cow milk forms a harder curd^5^, due to higher levels alpha-S1 casein (~28%^6^) &#8211; adding whey to cow formulas helps soften the curd^5^ and makes it easier to digest for infants. Whole goat milk formula is naturally soft without needing to add whey.</p>


<h6 style="text-align: center">Goat milk used in Capricare® is naturally lower in alpha-S1 casein ^3-6^, making it easier to digest</h6>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2025 size-full" src="https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/casien-new-e1755566667194.png" alt="" width="800" height="353" srcset="https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/casien-new-e1755566667194.png 800w, https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/casien-new-e1755566667194-300x132.png 300w, https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/casien-new-e1755566667194-768x339.png 768w, https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/casien-new-e1755566667194-600x265.png 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center">{small}alpha-S1 casein as % of total protein{/small}</p>


<h5>Naturally A2 for digestive comfort</h5>
<p>Just like human milk, goat milk naturally only contains A2-type beta caseins and no A1-type beta caseins.^7^<br />
{space}<br />
A1-type beta caseins are only present in bovine milk and have been linked to digestive discomfort^8,9^ and gut inflammation.^9^ This is because A1-type beta caseins in cow milk release high levels of a peptide called beta-casomorphin 7 (BCM-7), which has been linked to the negative effects of A1-type beta caseins.^9^<br />
{space}<br />
Milk only containing A2-type beta casein has been shown to release no or very little BCM-7^9^ and provides benefits for digestive comfort, stool consistency and frequency.^8,9^</p>


<h6>A2 beta-casein contains Proline at position 67, while A1 beta-casein has Histidine, making A1 more susceptible to enzymatic cleavage and the release of BCM-7 during digestion.</h6>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/3456-300x210.png" alt="" width="300" height="210" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2155" srcset="https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/3456-300x210.png 300w, https://cms.capricare.online/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/3456.png 545w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p>


<h5>Higher levels of sn-2 palmitic acid* for softer stools</h5>
<p>Capricare® contains ~50% fat from the goat milk source naturally providing higher levels of palmitic acid in the sn-2 position**^10^, which has been linked to digestive benefits, including softer stools, and less crying.^11^<br />
{space}<br />
When palmitic acid is in the sn-1 or sn-3 position of a triglyceride (the main form of fat), it is cleaved by digestive enzyme and becomes a free fatty acid that then forms soaps with calcium, making both the calcium and fatty acid unavailable to be absorbed by the body. This leads to harder stools and lowers calcium absorption. Palmitic acid in the sn-2 position does not form soaps and gets easily absorbed.^11^</p>


<h6 style="text-align: center">Proportion of palmitic acid in the sn-2 position</h6>

<h2>Natural Allergy Benefit</h2>
<h4>Capricare® whole goat milk formula is lower in key allergens and may reduce the risk of eczema</h4>
<p>A post hoc analysis of a randomised controlled trial of 200 formula-fed infants to assess growth and nutritional status, showed a trend of lower cumulative incidence of eczema with whole goat milk formula, compared to standard cow milk formula.^1^</p>


<h5>Lower in key allergens</h5>
<p>There are 2 key allergens in standard cow and goat milk formulas; alpha-S1 casein and beta-lactoglobulin.^2,3,4^<br />
{space}<br />
Human milk does not contain the key allergen, beta-lactoglobulin. Beta-lactoglobulin is found in the whey fraction of cow and goat milk. When whey is added to a milk formulation; ie &#8216;whey-adjusted&#8217;, the beta-lactoglobulin component of that formula is increased. Unlike cow milk formula, Capricare whole goat milk formula has no whey added and therefore, has a lower amount of the key allergen, beta-lactoglobulin, compared to whey-adjusted formulas.^2-4^</p>
<ul class="green-tick-list-left">
<li>Capricare® whole goat milk formula contains ~11% beta-lactoglobulin of total protein.^5^</li>
<li>Standard whey-adjusted goat and cow milk formulas contain &gt;34% beta-lactoglobulin of total protein.^5^</li>
</ul>
<p>Like human milk, Capricare® whole goat milk formula contains lower levels of alpha-S1 casein, when compared to standard cow milk formula.^6^ Furthermore, when alpha-S1 casein is sourced from goat milk, it has been shown to be less sensitising compared to alpha-S1 casein sourced from cow milk,^7^ suggesting that it is not only the lower levels of alpha-S1 casein, but also the goat milk source that supports the allergy benefits of Capricare® whole goat milk formula.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">{small}*Typical levels calculated based on levels reported in the scientific literature and assuming a 60:40 whey to casein ratio{/small}</p>


<h5>More efficient digestion of key allergens</h5>
<p>Caseins and beta-lactoglobulin from whole goat milk formula are more efficiently digested than those from cow milk formula (in vitro model)^8^, and beta-lactoglobulin is also more efficiently digested in whole goat milk formula compared to whey-adjusted goat and cow formula. This can further lower the allergic trigger potential of whole goat milk formula. Calculated assuming 60% whey with same composition as reported in Amalfitano et al. (2020)^2^ and Li et al. (2022).^3^<br />

<p>{space}</p>
<h5>Lower triggering potential in those with hypersensitivities</h5>
<p>While goat milk formulas are not suitable for infants or toddlers with established IgE-mediated cow milk allergy (CMA) due to possible cross-reactivity, lower levels of key allergens and more efficient digestion may benefit those with hypersensitivities. Lower levels of alpha-S1 casein, for example, have been shown to lead to a more muted inflammatory reaction in sensitised mice compared to exposure to high levels.^9^</p>

<h2>Natural Bioactives</h2>
<p>Capricare® whole goat milk formula supports key benefits, by design. Made with whole goat milk as the only source of protein and ~50% of fat from the goat milk fat, Capricare® naturally delivers components that support the growth and development of infants and toddlers.</p>


<h5>Naturally delivers Milk Fat Globule Membrane (MFGM)</h5>
<p>The milk fat in whole goat milk formula naturally delivers MFGM. MFGM from human milk, and other mammal milks such as goat milk, contains key components such as glycophospholipids, sphingolipids, cholesterol and bioactive proteins.^1,2^</p>
<p>These components have been linked to key benefits^1-3^:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MFGM proteins have antiviral, antibacterial and immunomodulatory properties</strong></li>
<li><strong>Phospholipids and cholesterol are important for brain development</strong></li>
<li><strong>Sphingolipids in MFGM are involved in gut maturation</strong></li>
<li><strong>MFGM has also been found to support gut microbiota development</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Most infant formulas add vegetable oil as the fat source, therefore do not naturally deliver MFGM. Our research shows that Capricare® whole goat milk formula contains near intact MFGM, delivering all of its beneficial components.^2^</p>

<h5>Cholesterol is important for the development of the brain and nervous system^2,3^</h5>
<p>Capricare® whole goat milk formula naturally delivers higher levels of cholesterol than formulas with a fat source from vegetable oil. Cholesterol is essential for the development of myelin sheaths in the brain and nervous system.^2,3^ Evidence shows that infants fed standard cow milk formula with a fat source from vegetable oil have lower serum cholesterol levels compared to breastfed infants.^3^</p>


<h6>Whole goat milk formula delivers around 2x the cholesterol levels of standard formula^2^</h6>

<h5>Naturally higher in milk oligosaccharides for healthy gut microbiota^9,10^</h5>
<p>Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex sugars (oligosaccharides) found in high concentrations in human milk. They are the third most abundant component in human milk, where they serve as prebiotics, selectively nourishing beneficial gut bacteria like Bifidobacteria, which helps shape a healthy infant microbiome. They have other important roles, such as protecting against pathogens, modulating immune responses, and supporting brain development.^11^<br />
{space}<br />
The scientific literature reports that goat milk naturally contains up to 6x higher levels of oligosaccharides, than cow milk, including oligosaccharides that are similar to those in human milk.^12,13^ Studies investigating the impact of whole goat milk on the gut microbiota demonstrated that infants fed whole goat milk formula had a gut microbiota more similar to a breastfed infant, when compared to cow milk formula. Whole goat milk formula was shown to be bifidogenic.^9,10^</p>

<h2>Safe, Effective &amp; Loved By Babies</h2>
<p style="text-align: left">Capricare® is safe, well tolerated and provides feeding time contentment for mums, dads and baby while supporting the normal healthy growth of an infant.</p>


<h5>Supports healthy infant growth</h5>
<p>Based on studies of formulations similar to Capricare®, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) determined goat milk to be a suitable source of protein for infant formula, without the formula requiring adjustment to the protein profile.^1^ Whole goat milk formula has been shown to support normal growth of formula-fed infants, with weight, length, head circumference, weight-for-length and body composition within the normal growth range and comparable to breastfed infants and those fed cow milk infant formula.^2-4^</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It has also been shown to support healthy plasma amino acid levels, is well tolerated and there were no differences in adverse health outcomes between formula groups.^2-4^</p>


<h6 style="text-align: center"><strong>The body composition of infants fed whole goat milk formula is comparable to that of breastfed infants</strong></h6>
