One possible way [the drug got into the food] is through the use of contaminated ingredients," Clean Label Project Executive Director Jaclyn Bowen explained in an email. "Rendering plants take slaughterhouse animal tissues and convert them into stable, usable materials like purified fats such as lard or tallow...

According to the Clean Label Project, the products were screened for 130 toxins, including heavy metals, BPA, pesticides and other contaminants. Popular baby brands such as Healthy Times, Organix, Gerber, Earth’s Best, and Parent’s Choice made the Clean Label Project’s list for five worst offenders. The study was not published in a peer-reviewed journal, meaning its methods and research quality have not been examined by outside scientists.

In my opinion, no. The food safety regulatory fabric in America is largely focused on pathogen and microbiological contaminants, for example, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Listeria, etc. These are the food safety recalls you hear about related to chicken or salad mix recalls. These can cause vomiting, diarrhea or worse within 24 to 72 hours. However, there is increasing consumer, academic and medical community concern over exposure to low levels of heavy metals and their impact on long-term chronic disease.

To start, serve a wide variety of healthy foods, limit rice cereal and processed snacks, and avoid giving your baby fruit juice.

In a recent study conducted by the Clean Label Project™, an independent third-party nonprofit organization, Nature’s One Baby’s Only Organic® Formula ranked highest among all baby formulas tested for purity and nutrition. Clean Label Project released the results of an independent laboratory study encompassing most U.S. baby formula and baby food brands. The testing looked beyond just nutrition to include metalloids, environmental toxins and processing chemicals. These toxins are hidden from the consumer and not considered by government regulations. Yet these toxins can have a profound negative impact on a baby’s normal growth and development.
