hi
we've just arrived in HK and i'm finding it easy to find everything we are used to having - except goat milk products (milk, yoghurt, hard cheese and follow-on formula). My 14 mth son has had eczema in the past and switching to goat products virtually cleared it up. We've been here less than a week and he's been having cows milk/cheese etc and its affected his skin already - any suggestions where I should go?
 
found some old threads that tell me!

hi..sorry....found a couple of old threads that were great - i've bought the formula from kinderkinder and will head to Great tomorrow to source the expensive fresh goat milk - if anyone knows of anywhere cheaper let me know but otherwise I'm good - thanks
 
my daughter has the same problem as your son. I know there are some other kind of goat's formula, some organic, some regular. all found at citysuper causeway bay in times square (they now have a special baby section). they also sell a lot of goat's cheese. at oliver's (prince's bldg, central) they sell goat's yogurt too.
 
You can get the Karihome Goat's Formula from Wing On. It's cheaper than other places plus you can also order on-line and they will deliver free!
 
Hi fellow aussie mum, there is a fantastic health food store in Causeway Bay and they seem to have almost everything...here is address: 54 - 58 Jardine's Bazaar, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong
Tel : 2577-3798 Fax : 2890-8469
Call first - they are very helpful over the phone...they may also have other goal milk products.....I know what it is like my 2 year old was the same but seemed to grow tolerance as she got older. Good luck
 
I have a few trial packs of goat's milk formula if anyone wants them. Can ask my husband to take them to central for pick up, so please pm me if interested.
 
hi auusie mum

i've just googled and found your post. my daughter who's now 5 is also suffering from eczema but i've only just found out from some friends that goats milk cured their eczema. However, it was fresh goat's milk that they had from the UK.

have you any ideas where i can find fresh goat's milk from Hong Kong? If not, any idea whether formula ones does the same trick please?

many thanks and hope that your son is now free from eczema!

Hi HK Jo

They stopped selling fresh goats milk in HK a couple of years ago so we switched to organic cows milk back then and I found it had no adverse impact on his skin at that time. The humid weather here for most of the year really seemed to agree with his skin and we've had no further problems. He is still eczema free!

As far as I know you still can not get fresh goats milk in HK. You can buy powdered goats milk (not infant formula but similar in that its powdered milk) I haven't tried it but I would think it might be more palatable for a child than infant formula which is very sweet? Both should still work in the same way that a switch to fresh goats milk would.

I can't recall where Ive seen it sold. From memory I'm thinking it was possibly Jasons Marketplace at Repulse Bay. Ill repost once Ive had time to check. I would assume the usual suspects like 360, City Super etc may well stock it too. They also stock goats cheese etc which i still use alongside cow cheese products.

Good luck
