Baby formula shortage has been in the news recently. And if you are the mother of or related to a young baby or child, this news may be of great concern to you.
While I do not promote formula feeding unless there are absolutely no other options, some mothers are simply unable to breastfeed or to keep up enough supply for their babies (of course there are underlying reasons for this and by using Medical Medium information, this can be corrected). However, while correcting, a mama may need options.
Spirit of Compassion gave Medical Medium a baby formula that is closest to resembling mother’s milk. I have had clients use it on their brand new babies all the way until toddlerhood. Anthony talked about this baby formula recipe on a live that he did with Kimberley Van der Beek a few years ago and I wanted to share it with you, to bring you some peace of mind.
Avocado
Avocado is one of the most perfect foods. It contains over 25 essential nutrients including iron, magnesium, and essential fatty acids. Furthermore, avocado is easily digested, and increases the body’s ability to assimilate nutrients.
In addition, avocados are high in glutathione which boosts the immune system, strengthens the heart, helps rebuild the nervous system, and slows down the aging process. Moreover, this incredible food also helps to steady blood sugar levels because the monounsaturated fats contained in the avocado reverse insulin resistance.
Did you know that an avocado is one of the closest foods to mother’s breast milk? It has protein, fat and glucose ratios that are equal to breast milk.
Barley Grass Juice Powder
Barley grass juice powder is one of the most nutrient rich foods found in nature.
This powerful food can help inhibit the growth of disease bacteria, and balance the PH of the body which boosts immunity. Not only does it strengthen the immune system, but it also alkalizes the body, increases energy, helps digestion, relieves constipation, and improves the overall health of your hair, skin, and nails.
Banana
A banana contains about 76% water, making it a fantastic electrolyte food. They are also packed with vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, B6, potassium, copper, and manganese. A high glucose content makes bananas an excellent brain food and muscle builder. So as you can imagine, bananas are a perfect food for an athlete – they replenish energy and instantly revitalize the body.
This incredible fruit contains very strong antifungal and antibiotic compounds, and has the ability to stop a virus in its tracks. Furthermore, bananas promote nutrient absorption and assimilation. In addition, they support the natural bacteria in the bowel, which keeps your digestive tract healthy and immune system strong.
Coconut Water
Coconut water is an incredibly nutritious drink, packed with B-complex vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, zinc, and manganese. Additionally, coconut water is one of the highest sources of electrolytes on the planet. In fact, it has the same level of electrolytes that we have in our blood.
Did you know that coconut water is identical to human plasma? Plasma is what makes up 55% of human blood. Coconut water can be considered a “universal donor.”
Furthermore, as a complete electrolyte, coconut water is hydrating on a deep, cellular level.
The ingredients in this baby formula are the closest to a mother’s breast milk that you can get.

Whether you need this formula as a substitute for breast milk or in addition to, this nutrition powerhouse will be incredibly beneficial to your baby!
Notes:
- Please note that nearly every mama I know makes this recipe a little differently for her baby. If you are supplementing your baby whilst breastfeeding, you can leave out the barley grass juice powder. If you are exclusively using this formula then I would be sure to keep the barley grass juice powder in the recipe for important minerals.
- Please note that babies who have very sluggish livers and present with skin conditions, for example, may not handle the fat content very well. You can lower the fat content as needed here and increase the bananas. I would not recommend totally avocado free as babies need some fat.
I trust this brings you the confidence and peace of mind to feed your baby without worry.
To your health & happiness,
Muneeza
