Ep 1403 BABY'S HEAVY METAL FOOD

from The Food Chain · host metrofarm

A decade-long study of baby food released by Healthy Babies – Bright Futures claims that 95% of commercial baby food contains heavy metals that can result in autism spectrum and attention-deficit disorders.  And so we ask…   Should grocers be allowed to sell baby foods that contain toxic heavy metals? Topics include how heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury pollute 95% of the nation’s baby food; what government and industry are doing to reduce the heavy metal pollution in baby food; and how attorney groups are putting the red-hot poker of litigation to the efforts of government and industry to reduce the pollution.
