In reply to Jessica H. There are two versions available, the more current one uses corn syrup, not corn maltodextrin. If possible, avoid corn maltodextrin as it can spike blood sugar levels in large amounts. An ingredient that is listed first means it's the main ingredient and makes up the majority of the formula. Check the use-by date on the can to see if it's expired. I'm not sure what caused the ingredient change, but corn syrup while still not a good choice does not spike blood sugar nearly as much as maltodextrin. Let us know if you have more questions.

Hello! I recently was given a canister of Similac Pro-Sensitive, and I was reading your article before I make the decision to give it to my child. I was reading the ingredients on the label, and you mentioned that the first ingredient was Corn Syrup, however the first ingredient my canister is showing is Corn Maltodextrin. So now I’m doubting whether or not I should give this to my child, and I’m wondering when they made the ingredient change. I was surprised to see that you wrote this only a month ago, so I wonder if my canister is older or if this article is older. Thanks for your thoughts!
