Parents Should Buy A Good Blender And Replace Baby Foods With Naturally Organic, Locally Grown fruits and vegetables.

Health experts recommend that commercial rice cereal be eliminated from a baby's diet altogether because it contains high amounts of arsenic

Monday, December 13, 2021 - Studies have shown that more heavy metals in baby food like lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic may be absorbed into the brain cells of children in the first three years of life than in all of the remainder of years of their early development. James E. Rogers, Ph.D., director of food safety research and testing at Consumer Reports (CR) wrote recently, "Babies and toddlers are particularly vulnerable due to their smaller size and developing brains and organ systems. They also absorb more of the heavy metals that get into their bodies than adults do." This makes being diligent about baby food testing for the presence of heavy metals a particularly pressing issue. Members of the US Congress agree with that statement and have proposed legislation to tighten up the restrictions and increase the penalties on companies that produce baby food products that test positive for unacceptably high levels of heavy metals. At present time, infant rice cereal is so contaminated with arsenic that Consumer Reports recommends that baby food companies voluntarily suspend the sale of the product. Feeding children baby formula high in toxic heavy metals like lead and arsenic are linked with children that have lower than average IQs and other neurological development issues. "Given how readily available substitutes are, Healthy Babies Bright Futures recommends eliminating rice-based cereals from babies' diets altogether, and CR's experts agree. "There are other infant grain cereals that provide the nutrients babies need but are much lower in inorganic arsenic, says CR's Rogers, " according to CR.

A study found that 95% of all baby food products sold in the US contain high amounts of heavy metals. Consumer Reports makes the following recommendations for concerned parents to replace commercially produced baby foods with natural, organic, and locally-grown produce. Parents should consider replacing foods that have a high risk of being contaminated with heavy metals like baby foods made from carrots, sweet potatoes, and infant rice cereals. Children's nutritional experts recommend that commercial baby foods be replaced by blending sweet potatoes, carrots, and other fruits, any combination of fruits and vegetables that you would see included in baby foods, but without the heavy metals. Bananas, mangoes, and blueberries are among the most easily-digested, high nutrient foods on the planet and are good for babies when purified in a blender.

Parents of autistic and other neurologically impaired children are outraged when told that some companies were informed years ago that the products contained high levels of heavy metals and did nothing to warn them of the dangers. They are equally angered to find out baby food finished products are not FDA tested for heavy metal, only the ingredients. Parents of children are waking up and starting to hold baby food manufacturers like Beech-Nut, HappyBABY, Earth's Best Organic and Gerber responsible by filing baby food heavy metal lawsuits.
