FDA issues safety alert for infant formula over health risks
By News Desk on August 2, 2024
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a safety alert for parents and caregivers regarding several infant formula products that are non-compliant with federal safety standards.
The products in question include Crecelac and Farmalac brand formulas, which have been linked to serious health risks for infants.
The alert follows a recall initiated by Dairy Manufacturers Inc. on May 24, 2024, which was prompted by the discovery of elevated levels of potassium and chloride and low levels of Vitamin A in Crecelac Infant Powdered Goat Milk Infant Formula. Such imbalances pose significant health risks, including potential kidney and heart problems from high levels of potassium and chloride, and vision problems from Vitamin A deficiency if consumed over a prolonged period. Although the recalled products were removed from shelves, the FDA is concerned that some households may still have these products.

FDA warns consumers to throw out certain ground cinnamon in wake of lead poisoning outbreak
By Coral Beach on March 6, 2024
In response to the problem with elevated levels of lead in cinnamon in children’s applesauce and recalls of products in the fall of 2023, the FDA initiated a review of ground cinnamon and has issued warnings.
During the review the Food and Drug Administration found elevated levels of lead in several products. The products are not targeted toward children, but are used as ingredients in foods that consumers may make and serve to children.
“Consistent with the agency’s Closer to Zero initiative, which focuses on reducing childhood exposure to lead, the agency is recommending voluntary recall of the products listed below because prolonged exposure to the products may be unsafe. Removing the ground cinnamon products in this alert from the market will prevent them from contributing elevated amounts of lead to the diets of children,” according to the FDA warning.
The FDA’s targeted survey checked ground cinnamon products from discount retail stores and analyzed the samples for chromium as well as lead.
