Hi ladies
I have the Hipp1 Combiotic formula for my baby, it has praebiotik & probiotik cultures in and I have started pre buying it to help with costs.
It says on the back that it must not be stored in a room above 25Celcius/77Fahrenheit. It is always above that in every room of my house, I spent today checking with my thermometer lol.I used to have this problem with my contraceptive pills too and ended up keeping them in an airtight container in the fridge door as the pharmacist over here said they would not work if I kept them above 25C again. I also keep my headache tablets in the fridge. My hubby's father who we are no longer in contact with is a Dr and said that for every degrees higher a product will last less months and may even expire long before it's expiry date and not work at all. My worry is that the cultures and vitamins will no longer survive and that my formula will be useless. My prenatal vitamins also state that 25C is the limit. But I only have a few maybe even just a couple of weeks left untill birth and I take sooooo many that I figured they will be fine, when I buy a new box I will keep them in the fridge too, but I can't keep the formula in the fridge as the cultures may not be able to live at that cold temperature
Any advice?
