From the registry

This study investigates the effects of follow-on formula in infants aged 6-9 months over a 12-week period. After parents give consent, their baby's feeding habits, stool characteristics, and any illnesses or medication use will be recorded. Infants will be randomly assigned to receive either the test or control product. Growth and health data will be collected during study visits. Parents will collect stool samples and complete diaries to help researchers better understand the baby's digestion and overall health. A follow-up phone call will be made to check on the baby's well-being after the study ends.
