Baby formula "Bellakt" - reviews

Recently, young mothers are actively discussing "Bellakt" mixtures. Reviews about this product are different, as, however, and about any other brand of baby food. Only a few negative stories are alarming, in which the children were covered not just with a rash, but with stains, not with regurgitation, but with a fountain that was eaten with milk. Some even called an ambulance to relieve pain in the tummy. How objective and real the accusations are regarding this mixture, let's consider in more detail in the article.

Where did "Bellakt" blend appeared on the Russian market?

Comments from mothers mention the Belarusian origin of the "Bellakt" mixture, but what kind of firm is it, very few people know. In 1967, the Volkovysk Dairy Canning Combine of Baby Food began to be built in Byelorussia. In 1970, the first dry mixtures were produced, which in the Soviet era were the leaders in the market.

After 15 years, the Belarusian combine under the leadership of the French company "Sifal" carried out the reconstruction without stopping the production of dry mixtures. In 1991, a state-owned enterprise becomes a lease. It is from this time that baby food is sold under the brand name "Bellakt".

The Belarusian combine several times changes the form of ownership, but this does not affect the quality of the products. Since 1995 Volkovysk enterprise becomes an open joint-stock company "Bellakt". Since 2002, the plant has been modernized for six years to produce the mixes taking into account the needs of consumers.

Product Quality

Please note that the company has been operating for 44 years. It is impossible to exist so much, producing a substandard product, and to win world markets with it. Certificates of quality and awards testify to the success of the company.

The company received the first international award in 1995, and three years later the brand of the combine became the "Product of the Year". In 2003 the best Belarusian product was the children's mixture "Bellakt".

In 2004, the company receives a diploma recognizing the products abroad. In a year, Bellakt is awarded with seven diplomas for product quality. Every year the baby food factory receives more and more awards not only for quality products, but also for working with consumers.

In 2014, the mixture is again recognized as folk in Belarus, the company ranks first among other brands of baby food and the second - in the production of butter, sour cream, thick yogurt, glazed curd.

"Flour" mixtures "Bellakt"

The responses of the parents about this product are mostly positive. In their opinion, the children are full of this mixture, after which they sleep peacefully all night. The production adds cereal flour, which saturates, and also contains vegetable fibers, normalizing the work of the gastrointestinal tract.

In this series, blends with buckwheat, rice and oat flour are produced . Despite the fact that they do not contain gluten, they have a balanced complex of useful vitamins, acids, minerals, fats, proteins and carbohydrates, producers pay attention to the fact that before buying this product one should consult a pediatrician.

Judging by the reviews, among the shortcomings of the mixture in this series is particularly distinguished by the presence of lumps. This may be due to several factors:

• The powder is poured into boiling water;
• First a bottle was poured into a bottle and then poured water;
• Badly shook;
• The box with baby food was badly closed and kept in a damp room.

Types of Milk Blends

For healthy children older than a year, the dry milk formula "Bellakt" is produced. Reviews of parents are mixed. Most say that their children do not drink such a milkshake. The reason - the presence of lumps or a specific taste. But my mother found a way out of this situation: on the basis of powder make amazing pancakes.

In this series, a mixture of "Baby Milk" with 15% and 25% fat for a one-year-old children is produced. This is not liquid milk. It is available in the form of a dry powder, which must be diluted with water. It includes prebiotics, a vitamin-mineral complex, fat-free and whole milk.

The fact that not all children drink this product is due to the age category. By the year many babies already refuse from different mixtures, having their own culinary preferences. Some categorically do not accept milk drinks and prefer solid food. And mothers try to buy not mixes, and porridges - more satisfying and various to taste.

Negative feedback

From negative reviews it can be seen that some children with the use of the Belarusian mixture have pronounced red spots, sudden vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain. Kids become irritable, capricious, whiny. Parents do not like the smell of the mixture, lumps and unpleasant taste. For example, many people say that the hypoallergenic mixture "Bellakt" has a bitter taste. Mom's comments say that she can not cope with allergic rashes in comparison with the "Bellakt Soya" diet.

Please note that manufacturers mention cases of individual intolerance, so the mixture may not suit your child. By the way, to introduce a new product you need to gradually, starting at 30 milliliters, and monitor the reaction of the baby. Also on the box it is indicated, for children of what age this or that product is intended. Periodically, the company produces new series of products taking into account the wishes of consumers.

Many parents see the same mixture and buy for babies food intended for the second half of the year, or from a medical series. On each package it is written that it is necessary to consult a doctor and also indicate the age.

Positive reviews

Most of all, according to parents, the children like the fermented milk mix "Bellakt". Reviews moms note kefir taste, lack of starch granules, improve the intestines of babies. Many children have had constipation, and there are no allergic reactions.

For mammal allergy sufferers choose a soy mixture that has a neutral taste and cures the rash better than a specialized hypoallergenic baby food. Still parents allocate mixes with cereal flour which their children drink without whims.

As you can see, the company "Bellakt" offers a huge range of mixtures for healthy children, as well as for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. In comparison with other brands of baby food, the mixture "Bellakt" is distinguished by a price (around a hundred rubles per pack) and a peculiar composition. At the same time, there are more positive reviews than negative ones. But the final decision on the choice of baby food is for your baby!
