I. Product Composition
Ingredients
Whole milk powder, skimmed milk powder, lactose, galactooligosaccharides, milk minerals, concentrated whey protein, fructooligosaccharides, collagen, lactoferrin, α-lactalbumin, hydrolyzed egg yolk powder, magnesium oxide, ferrous gluconate, zinc gluconate, taurine, and lutein esters.
II. Sources of the Primary Ingredients
Milk Minerals
Derived from New Zealand whey, milk minerals are produced through the removal of protein and lactose, followed by concentration and drying to form a naturally occurring milk-calcium complex. Its calcium-to-phosphorus ratio closely resembles that of human bone, making it a natural source of dairy calcium.
Colostrum Basic Protein (CBP)
CBP is an alkaline bioactive protein extracted from bovine colostrum. Recognized as one of the key active proteins in colostrum, it is widely regarded as an important factor in calcium retention and bone metabolism.
Lactoferrin
Lactoferrin is a naturally occurring bioactive protein extracted from cow’s milk and is considered one of milk’s principal immune-supporting components.
Hydrolyzed Egg Yolk Powder
Produced from egg yolks through enzymatic hydrolysis, this ingredient contains bioactive compounds including egg yolk peptides.
Prebiotic Blend (Galactooligosaccharides + Inulin/Fructooligosaccharides)
Galactooligosaccharides are derived from lactose, while inulin is extracted from natural plants. Both are naturally occurring soluble dietary fibers that help support intestinal health.
Lutein Esters
Extracted primarily from marigold and other botanical sources, lutein esters offer greater stability and improved bioavailability compared with standard lutein.
III. Primary Benefits
Physiological Functions of the Children’s Growth Formula Milk Powder
Milk minerals help improve bone density and support skeletal health
Milk minerals promote the proliferation of osteoblasts while inhibiting osteoclast activity, thereby supporting healthier bone metabolism. Studies suggest that bone density gains may continue even after supplementation has ceased, unlike certain inorganic calcium sources whose effects may diminish over time. Regular intake may also help reduce fracture risk among older adults and postmenopausal women.
Colostrum Basic Protein (CBP) supports balanced bone metabolism
CBP acts directly on osteoblasts, encouraging their growth and accelerating bone matrix mineralization. At the same time, it helps suppress osteoclast differentiation and activity, reducing bone loss. In synergy with calcium, CBP may improve calcium absorption and utilization, enhance bone density, and support the longitudinal growth of children’s bones.
Lactoferrin provides broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiviral support
Lactoferrin exerts antimicrobial effects through two principal mechanisms. First, it binds free iron in the surrounding environment, depriving harmful bacteria of an essential nutrient and thereby inhibiting the proliferation of pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Helicobacter pylori. Second, it can bind directly to bacterial cell membranes, compromising membrane integrity and causing leakage of cellular contents. These effects have demonstrated inhibitory activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
Hydrolyzed egg yolk powder helps regulate bone metabolism and promote skeletal development
This ingredient stimulates osteoblast proliferation and upregulates bone-forming factors including IGF-1, TGF-β1, and BMP2, thereby promoting collagen synthesis and calcium deposition in bone tissue. These processes support bone growth in children and contribute to increased bone density. It may also inhibit osteoclast activity and reduce inflammatory mediators such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, helping decrease bone resorption and lower the risk of osteoporosis. In addition, it may improve intestinal calcium absorption, reduce urinary calcium loss, and support bone resilience and dental enamel health.
Lutein esters help maintain retinal structure and visual function
Once metabolized into lutein and zeaxanthin, lutein esters selectively accumulate in the macular region of the retina, forming macular pigment. These compounds help filter high-energy blue light, reducing potential oxidative damage to retinal photoreceptor cells. They also support the structural integrity of photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelial cells, helping maintain normal visual signal transmission while improving visual acuity and contrast sensitivity.

IV. Directions for Use and Suitable Consumers
Directions
Add one sachet (25g) of milk powder to 180ml of warm water. Stir thoroughly until fully dissolved before consumption.
Suitable Consumers
- Children aged 3–6 years: One sachet daily after meals to support foundational nutritional needs during growth and development.
- Children aged 7–15 years: One to two sachets daily, ideally one in the morning and one in the evening. Intake may be adjusted according to the child’s overall dietary habits. Consuming after meals may support nutrient absorption more effectively.
This product is not suitable for children with dairy allergies.
