BABY FORMULA

WARNING!

SOURCES OF PROCESSED FREE GLUTAMIC ACID IN TWO BABY FORMULA'S-
1) NAN 2- MALTODEXTRIN (2nd listed ingredient on label) 
2) KARICARE PLUS- MALTODEXTRIN (3rd listed ingredient on label).
We all know that avoiding MSG in foods is extremely difficult especially when there are around 52 additives that are sources of processed free Glutamic Acid but, strictly speaking, are not labelled as MSG.

MSG is prohibited from baby foods and infant formula's. However, I have found it 'under-cover' in the 2 popular baby formula's listed above.

In addition to this, there is another ingredient which caused hundreds of complaints from customers in August, 2012:

Nestle external relations manager Margaret Stuart said the company ran tests when it switched calcium chloride (509- stomach irritant in sensitive people- i.e. babies?)  for potassium chloride  (508) in the formula recipe.
However, you don't have to look far to read that  research associates Potassium Chloride (508) with gastric ulcers, nausea and liver toxicity. Research distinctly states that Potassium Chloride SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN TO CHILDREN.
WHY IS IT  IN NAN 2 BABY FORMULA?

This is not just disappointing but disgusting. Our children's well being is being eroded.
Avoid purchasing these products- pass this on to whoever you know who is currently using baby formula.
