“Breast is best.” We’re next.
We spent over five years studying breast milk and its nutrients, working with leading scientists and pediatricians to completely rewrite the formula recipe to set baby up for a healthier life ahead.
Our patented protein blend (not so) simply gets the closest.
60% more of breast milk's two most abundant proteins, Alpha-lac and Lactoferrin.
For easier digestion, nutrient absorption, immune and microbiome support.
Total protein quantity reduced to get closer to breast milk levels.
For healthy growth and body composition.
Our whey to casein ratio mirrors early breast milk.
For optimized protein digestion and absorption.
Our carbs all come from lactose – just like breast milk.
Why skim the milk? Breast milk has whole fats, just like ours.
Our Proteins
We believe proteins are key to closing the gap between formula and breast milk, because it’s not just about quantity (which is closely regulated by the FDA) but quality, which directly impacts baby’s development.
Our high quality, patented blend combines the two most abundant proteins in breast milk with broken down proteins for a food that's easy to digest, supports baby's immune system and microbiome, and even helps them spit up less (you're welcome, parents).
Our Carbs
Our carbs come from organic lactose, which work hand-in-hand with prebiotic GOS to promote good bacteria in baby’s gut—making for a healthy microbiome and easier digestion—and leave out the yucky stuff (no corn syrup or maltodextrin in our blend!).
Our Fats
We love skim for our coffee, but not for our babies.
Skimming milk (AKA skim or nonfat milk, an extremely common ingredient in infant formulas today) removes key nutrients that are naturally present in milk, some of which are then added into other infant formula blends in the form of oils and other additives. Our organic, grass-fed whole milk supplies more of the fats that not only support brain development, but also help makes baby’s bones stronger and poops softer!

What does no compromise mean?
Because parents shouldn’t have to choose.
To give baby the first Clean Label Project-certified infant formula in the US.
To keep the good stuff in, and the stuff you don’t want (soy, corn syrup, maltodextrin) out.
Because babies should have it all.
For too long, parents have been forced to choose between brain health or tummy happiness, “science-backed” or “clean.” So we built our first formula from the ground up, with an innovative recipe that’s blended in small batches for quality every step of the way.

The buzz around ByHeart
“[With] major advances in nutrition science and breast milk research...the tools are there to raise the bar on babies’ first food.”
“One of the best things about Cluster is that it’s the only feeding-focused community out there, acting as the hot spot for linking up with other parents in the same phase to share tips, articles, and advice. It’s a place to learn from and lean on one another, cause we could all use a little more of that.”
“With a proprietary blend of ingredients, ByHeart says its infant formula is designed to deliver...not just enough calories to spur a baby’s weight, but the immune, microbiome, and digestive health benefits babies need—above the industry standard.”
“Creating a formula recipe that incorporates modern advancements in baby nutrition beyond the industry standard requires ownership of the entire manufacturing process and running a new clinical trial.”
