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

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

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.

Consumer reports tested formulas for lead and arsenic:

I’m glad that many formulas were fine but am disturbed that not all checked out well!
