A new report says baby foods may contain dangerous levels of heavy metals, which can be harmful to growing brains.
The investigators examined a wide range of rice cereals, purees, puffs and juices from Nurture (which sells Happy Family Organics), Beech-Nut Nutrition, Hain Celestial Group (which sells the Earth’s Best Organics brand) and Gerber. They allege those companies have permitted the sale of foods tainted with arsenic, lead, cadmium and mercury.
The investigators also noted they were “greatly concerned” that Walmart, Campbell Soup and Sprout Organic Foods did not cooperate with their inquiries.
All of the baby food manufacturers cited in the report have taken issue with it in some form or another as well as noting that the Food and Drug Administration does not set federal standards for toxic heavy metals in baby foods.
