Real Food. Real Nutrition. No Compromises

In an industry crowded with reformulations, additives, and ever-changing ingredient lists, Designed by Nature has taken a disciplined, long-term position: real food ingredients, unchanged, because they work.

As the modern U.S. food pyramid continues to evolve—placing renewed emphasis on whole foods, nutrient density, and functional fats—our philosophy feels less like a trend and more like validation. For us, nutrition has always started with food, not fortification.

Our cow and goat milk formulas are built on a simple but rigorous principle:
all nutrients and vitamins should come from the ingredients themselves. No fillers. No artificial layers. No nutritional “patchwork.”

Nutrition That Comes From Food—Not From a Lab

Designed by Nature formulas do not rely on synthetic vitamin blends added after heavy processing. Instead, nutrients exist naturally within the ingredients, working together the way nature intended.

This matters. Whole-food nutrients are more bioavailable, better tolerated, and metabolized more efficiently—especially by developing digestive systems.

When nutrition is built from food, it doesn’t need correction later.

Ingredient Integrity: What We Use—and Why

Every ingredient in our formulas has a clear, functional role. Nothing is ornamental. Nothing is included “just because.”

Milk Powder

The nutritional foundation of our formula. Naturally rich in protein, calcium, and essential minerals that support bone development and overall growth. Our milk powder is produced using careful, food-grade processing that avoids chemical solvents and unnecessary heat, maintaining the integrity of the milk and the nutrients naturally present within it.

Sweet Dairy Whey

Sweet dairy whey is the natural liquid portion of milk that remains after milk is gently coagulated during traditional cheese-making using enzymes—not acids, it retains its natural protein structure, lactose, and bioactive components. The result is a mild, highly digestible protein that supports growth and gut comfort without irritation.

In our formula, sweet dairy whey helps create a protein profile closer to human milk—functional, gentle, and nutritionally intact. No chemical solvents. No harsh processing. Just milk, respectfully transformed.

Lactose

The primary carbohydrate in human milk. Lactose fuels brain development, supports calcium absorption, and nourishes beneficial gut bacteria—no substitutes, no alternatives.

Hydrolyzed Collagen (Bovine Type I & III)

A functional protein providing glycine and proline—key amino acids for connective tissue, skin, gut lining, and structural growth. Hydrolyzed for easy digestion.

Nutritional Yeast

A naturally nutrient-dense ingredient supplying B-complex vitamins that support energy metabolism, neurological development, and cellular function—without synthetic isolates.

Coconut Oil

A clean source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), offering fast, efficient energy and gentle digestive support.

Cod Liver Oil

A traditional, food-based source of vitamins A and D, along with DHA—essential for brain development, vision, and immune function.

Olive Oil

Provides monounsaturated fats and antioxidant compounds that support cellular health and long-term metabolic balance.

Sunflower Oil

A source of essential fatty acids, including linoleic acid, crucial for neurological development and skin integrity. What matters most is how the oil is processed—ours is carefully sourced and minimally processed to preserve its nutritional integrity, ensuring it delivers benefits without oxidative damage or unnecessary byproducts.

Acerola Powder

A whole-food source of vitamin C that supports immune health and improves iron absorption—no synthetic ascorbic acid required.

Protease Enzyme Complex

Supports protein digestion and nutrient absorption, making the formula gentler on developing digestive systems.

No Fillers. No Added Noise. No Nutritional Shortcuts.

You won’t find corn syrup solids, maltodextrin, artificial preservatives, or unnecessary stabilizers in our formulas.

Every ingredient must justify its presence nutritionally.
If it doesn’t nourish, it doesn’t belong.

Consistency Is a Choice—and Ours Is Clear

For over 13 years, Designed by Nature has made a deliberate decision to stay consistent:

• The ingredients have not changed

• The philosophy has not changed

• The commitment to real food has never been diluted

While others reformulate to follow trends, we’ve stayed focused on what works—because growing bodies don’t benefit from nutritional experimentation.

Real Food. Then. Now. Always.

Long before “real food” became a marketing headline, it was our foundation.
Long before updated food pyramids caught up, our formulas were already there.

No fillers. No artificial layers. No compromises.
Just food—designed by nature, backed by time.

REAL FOOD.
