Frequently asked questions about CERELAC®

Why is CERELAC important for babies?

From 6 months onward, babies begin their weaning journey and need nutrient-dense foods alongside breastmilk to support their growing nutritional needs. CERELAC provides important nutrients, including iron, vitamins, and minerals, to help support growth and development. In a recent local study, CERELAC was also Tested + Proven for Pinoy Babies, giving parents added confidence during this important milestone.

Are CERELAC infant cereals fortified with iron?

Yes. CERELAC infant cereals are fortified with iron and provide 50% of your baby's daily iron needs in one serving, helping support normal growth and development.

How do I prepare CERELAC infant cereals?

  • Boil clean drinking water and measure 150mL of water.
  • Add 50 grams or 5 heaping tablespoons of CERELAC.
  • Mix together until the cereal is smooth. Test the temperature before feeding.
  • Optional: Pair with age-appropriate homemade foods for a Tambalang CERELAC + Homemade meal for BIG Sustansya

Does CERELAC contain sugar?

In CERELAC, much of the sugar is intrinsic; meaning sugars that occur naturally in foods like milk, fruits and vegetables. CERELAC offers variants with fruits that are thoughtfully formulated to support the nutritional needs of children during this important stage of growth and development. Any added sugars are well below the applicable local and international nutrition regulations (such as Codex Alimentarius). In addition, we have introduced no added table sugar variants for parents who prefer these options.

Is CERELAC a healthy choice for my baby?
