S-26 Gold 1 is a premium cow’s milk-based starter formula developed to meet the nutritional requirements of babies from birth to six months when breastfeeding is not possible or supplementary feeding is recommended by a healthcare professional.
Its advanced Nutrilearn™ System combines Alpha-Lipids, including phospholipids and sphingomyelin, with DHA, AA, choline and lutein. These nutrients form part of the formula’s nutritional profile for normal brain, cognitive and visual development.
The formula also contains 2′-FL Human Milk Oligosaccharide, oligofructose prebiotic fibre and five key nucleotides. These nutritional components help support beneficial intestinal bacteria, normal digestive balance and the baby’s developing immune system.
S-26 Gold 1 provides alpha-lactalbumin, a high-quality whey protein, together with iron, calcium, zinc, selenium, taurine, L-carnitine and essential vitamins and minerals. These nutrients support normal physical growth, bone development, red blood cell formation and energy metabolism.

Important Feeding Notice
Breast milk is the ideal source of nutrition for babies, and exclusive breastfeeding is recommended during the first six months whenever possible.
S-26 Gold 1 should be introduced only after consultation with a paediatrician, pharmacist or another qualified healthcare professional.
The amount and frequency of feeding should be based on the baby’s age, weight, appetite, growth and individual nutritional requirements.
Introducing partial bottle-feeding may reduce the mother’s breast milk supply, and the decision to stop breastfeeding may be difficult to reverse.
How to Prepare
Always follow the feeding table and preparation instructions printed on the supplied UAE tin. The exact scoop size, amount of water and number of scoops must match the product label.
- Wash your hands thoroughly and clean the preparation surface.
- Wash the feeding bottle, teat, cap and all utensils until no milk residue remains.
- Rinse the equipment thoroughly, then boil it for five minutes or sterilise it according to the pack instructions.
- Keep the sterilised equipment covered until required.
- Boil fresh drinking water and allow it to cool to the temperature specified on the product packaging.
- Pour the exact amount of water shown in the feeding table into the sterilised bottle.
- Use only the scoop supplied with the product.
- Fill the scoop with powder and level it without pressing or packing the powder.
- Where confirmed on the supplied pack, add one level scoop of approximately 4.43g for every 30ml of water.
- Close the bottle and shake thoroughly until the powder has completely dissolved.
- Check the temperature on the inside of your wrist before feeding.
- Feed immediately after preparation.
Never change the water-to-powder ratio or add extra powder, water, sugar, cereal or other ingredients unless specifically instructed by the baby’s healthcare professional.
Too much powder may cause dehydration, while too little powder may provide inadequate nutrition.
Feeding and Storage Instructions
Prepare only one bottle at a time and feed immediately whenever possible.
Discard any formula remaining after feeding. Never store or reuse an unfinished bottle that has been in contact with the baby’s mouth.
Do not heat prepared formula in a microwave, as uneven heating may create hot spots and cause burns.
Keep the powder, scoop and internal packaging clean and dry.
Close the tin tightly after every use.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, moisture and excessive heat.
Do not refrigerate the powder.
Use the contents within four weeks after opening or within the period printed on the supplied UAE tin if different.
Always hold the baby while feeding. Never leave a baby unattended with a bottle, as this may increase the risk of choking.
