"Old news, Brand has just woke up to it. Basically years of pollution and pesticide which foods absorb during growth. Some foods naturally have higher levels of absorption, sweet potatoes rice carrots, which make up the bulk of processed baby food. " Sure I defiantly believe and am aware of the effects of GMO'S and company's the likes of Monsanto and there cancer causing miracle grow product. And pestacides But this seems to be an additional ingredient added as apose to just something carried I'n the food naturally. Or not so naturally as it would be really lol. But you get what I'm trying to say. | |||

"Anyone who has worked in the food industry is aware of issues with groundwater contamination of rice. White rice and especially brown rice is known for retaining inorganic arsenic. It's not about the companies processing it in, it's about chemical runoff in the land and water where the rice is grown, then these (perfectly legal, though contaminated) crops being bought by companies. In the UK we didn't have any maximum level of inorganic arsenic set until 2015, when we adopted the EU recommended maximum level of 0.1mg/kg for inorganic arsenic in rice intended for baby and infant formula. In the US there is no legally binding maximum. The FDA recommendation is for 100ppb in the finished product formula, but it's only a recommendation. That's why there is such a fuss being caused right now over the levels in American formula. Because the limit isn't legally binding companies are free to exceed it whenever they please with no repercussions. They tested a load of brands, almost all of them had higher levels than the recommendation. There needs to either be a legally binding maximum safe level or the level within the product needs to be stated on the packaging for consumers to make an informed choice." Love you! X | |||
