ung children are particularly vulnerable to the toxic effects of lead. They can suffer profound and permanent adverse health effects, particularly affecting the development of the brain and nervous system, which can diminish their ability to learn.

Levels of lead in infant formula can be controlled by sourcing raw materials from areas where lead is less present.
