Comment on Baby Foods Are Tainted with Dangerous Levels of Heavy Metals [pdf]parent

I went through a similar thing with my son. The best part was when an acquaintance recommended the “easier on the stomach” variant of one of the popular formula brands. I checked the box, first ingredient: corn syrup!

For what it’s worth, it’s very hard to be sure switching brands is the causation of a better outcome vs just a correlation. Babies change rapidly so it’s possible that unrelated development is there true source of recovery. But it was definitely a dramatic difference for us exactly when we switched formulas too.

For us it was night and day with the different formula. We even tried going back to old formulas see if it really was the new formula. Immediate problems.

Hipp didn't have corn syrup, and did have the right nutrients for each stage.
