Arsenic, toxic metals found in baby food including Walmart, Gerber, Beech-Nut brands, according to new report
A congressional investigation has found levels of arsenic, lead and other toxic metals that can harm brain development in many popular baby foods, including organic brands. In a report released Thursday, a U.S. House Subcommittee said it requested internal data from seven companies, including Walmart, in 2019 after a nonprofit called Healthy Babies Bright Futures published results of testing it did on baby foods. Four of the companies – Gerber, Beech-Nut, Earth's Best Organics maker Hain Celestial and Happy Family Organics maker Nurture Inc. – shared documents. The subcommittee said Walmart, Sprout Foods and Campbell Soup Co., which makes Plum Organics baby food, didn't cooperate. Arsenic, lead, cadmium and mercury – metals that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration considers harmful to human health – can remain in the environment for decades from past pesticide and herbicide use, according to Michael Hansen, a senior staff scientist with Consumer Reports.

大米在生长过程中就是比较容易吸收土壤里的砷汞镉铅等有毒元素,所以一般儿医都不建议给婴儿吃太多米粉,燕麦粉就好些。

之前看到过一个市场调查的节目说这个问题,而且还邀请了几对妈妈和孩子测砷含量,结果baby的砷含量都是大人的很多倍。现在北美这边没标准,欧洲有的,有些牌子的米糊米饼超标特别严重,而且不同批次也有variation,organic也一样好几个产品超标。反正当时看了那期节目整个人都不好了,给我家老大吃过不少各种rice snack,给老二打算上oatmeal杂粮地瓜根茎类了

上周版上发过这个新闻了。 就是不要吃米制品,自己蒸南瓜,红薯,大点的煮燕麦,都是很好的淀粉摄入。零食的话改成冻干水果之类的。本来米饼也是磨牙用,没什么营养。

不用过于焦虑,我在小红书上刷到一个环境博士的妈妈分析还挺靠谱的,她的意思是,第一,美国2020年新出台了关于婴儿食品的规定,但是报告全部用的2020年以前生产的食品;第二,报告把米粉的砷含量跟饮用水的标准比,但是人一天要喝一两升的水,总不可能吃一两斤的米粉吧;第三,大米含砷确实问题严重,要控制婴儿小孩摄入量;第四, 最重要的是需要FDA制定婴儿食品的详细规范

不用焦虑。宝宝辅食多样化,比如牛油果,香蕉,红薯这种饱肚子的。大娃了也不要给大多米饭。可以加意大利面土豆红薯。玉米粒。可以买有机的。我们一天最多一次米饭。不吃没啥损失。

我小姑从来都是买罐装baby food给他儿子吃。似乎没什么问题,除了开始吃table food后有点偏食不爱吃蔬果。
