A new investigation has revealed more than a dozen popular baby formula products have “potentially harmful” levels of heavy metals.
Consumer Reports tested 41 types of powder baby formula and found about half contained “potentially harmful levels” of at least one contaminant. In particular, the non-profit found that almost all samples contained lead, and eighteen formulas contained 50 to 100 percent of the “Maximum Allowable Dose Level” for a three-month-old.
