Infant goat milk formula leaders • Dairy Goat Co-operative

DGC are the originators of commercialised infant formula from goats’ milk. Since that breakthrough in 1988 we have continued to lead clinical advances in this field. We are now in more markets than any other goat milk infant formula.

Milk is made up of protein, fat, carbohydrate, water, minerals and vitamins.

DGC has adopted an alternative approach, using whole milk to retain milk fat.

At DGC our process begins with whole goat milk to retain the milk fat before adding lactose, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.

DGC has conducted two double blinded randomised control trials of goat formula¹ and one prospective co-hort study² in new born infants.

It is well known that goat milk produces a very loose curd structure with a high proportion of water and is easily broken apart.

Studies show that goat milk reduces intestinal permeability¹ and intestinal inflammation.

Goat milk is naturally rich in calcium and other minerals.

Goat milk contains oligosaccharides similar in structure to human milk oligosaccharides.

There is a common belief that goat milk is a sound alternative for infants or children with cow milk protein allergy.
