Consumer reports tested formulas for lead and arsenic:
https://www.consumerreports.org/babies-kids/baby-formula/baby-formula-contaminants-test-results-a7140095293/?EXTKEY=SG72CR0D&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD-SwFSLO0TujrBKipuvJdOfzgpq7 I’m glad that many formulas were fine but am disturbed that not all checked out well! |

| It looked like some of the formulas that tested above the limits are, unfortunately, formulas for babies with at least some degree of medical need. Nutramigen is hypo-allergenic for babies with a dairy allergy who can’t tolerate soy. Elecare is similar and also used in 12+ month olds with growth/developmental issues and gut and intestinal problems. |

They should test for microplastics.
Shady places are intentionally adding microplastics for bulk in products. |

| The ones failing are all the hypoallergenic ones. Extra awful because it often means breast milk isn’t suitable. |
