# Preparing and using HiPP

## The answer

The preparation guides are about making up HiPP formula safely and measuring it right: the water and its temperature, the scoop and the ratio printed on each pack, how much a baby drinks by age, and how long a made-up bottle or an opened tin keeps. Each fact comes from HiPP's own pack or from a public health source such as the WHO or the CDC, and where the two differ, the guide says so and gives both.
