Study examines effect of chemicals in baby foods
By Ahmed ElAmin
 03/08/2007 - A new EU-funded study on infants will examine the impact on
the health of newborns of chemicals currently found in baby foods.

Depending on the findings, the project's conclusions could have severe
repercussions for baby food manufacturers if any adverse effects are found.
"Chemicals in commercial baby food have a greater impact on the still
embryonic tissue of a growing child than on the tissue of an adult who has
stopped growing," said Karl-Werner Schramm, a GSF spokesperson.
More and more babies are either never breastfed or are only breastfed for a
short time. Instead, these babies are fed with industrially-prepared formula
milk or solids such as vegetable purée.
