2 in 3 Baby Foods Failed the Test. Yours Won't
Baby nutrition companies advertise their products as healthy, but that's often not the case. The study reveals that two-thirds of infant foods fail to meet nutritional guidelines. You're left with a product filled with sugars, artificial ingredients, and preservatives.
The misrepresentation of baby nutrition products can lead to poor infant and toddler dietary habits, leading to childhood obesity. [2,3]
