New review reveals which baby foods carry the highest heavy metal risks

This scoping review found that more than 60 percent of infant formulas and baby foods worldwide contain detectable levels of cadmium, lead, and arsenic, with mercury present in more than 30 percent of products. The highest concentrations and regulatory exceedances occurred in baby foods containing fish, rice, and cereals, underscoring persistent global safety gaps.
