🚨 Important Update for Parents 🚨
Heads up, mums and dads! The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has confirmed the presence of a food poisoning toxin in some of Nestlé’s infant formulas. This comes after several batches of their SMA formulas were pulled from shelves over concerns they might contain the cereulide toxin. 😱 This nasty toxin can cause vomiting, nausea, and stomach pain.
Here’s the scoop: the tainted ingredient has been identified as arachidonic acid (ARA) oil, usually an essential addition for baby growth. The issue seems to have originated from a shared supplier. Yikes!
✨ Affected Products Include:
– SMA Advanced First Infant Milk
– SMA Advanced Follow-On Milk
– SMA Anti Reflux
– SMA Alfamino
– SMA First Infant Milk
– SMA Little Steps First Infant Milk
– SMA Comfort
– SMA Lactose Free
🍼 What Should You Do?:
– Check your packs for the specific batch codes on the FSA website.
– Stop using the affected formulas.
– If your baby has consumed these, contact your GP or NHS 111 for advice.
Parents using a prescribed formula, consult with your pharmacist or doctor before making any changes. Better safe than sorry. 🙏
Even more news – Danone recently recalled a batch of their Aptamil formula due to similar toxin worries. Stay on the alert and check those labels, folks!
