U.S. Interior Christmas finds traces of melamine in baby formula


And each time closer to Mexico, as this does not "affect" but we'll see if it's true. The worst thing is that if they find risks in the future as in China, pay and suffer the least fault with, the babies could rightfully be fed with milk is the best mommy.




WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. health officials found traces of chemical melamine in a sample of powdered baby milk sold in the United States said on Tuesday a spokeswoman for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA for its acronym in English).
"There is no reason to worry, because we talk about as low (...) that there is absolutely no risk," said FDA spokeswoman Judy Leon.
A formula contaminated with melamine was discovered previously this year in China, when thousands of babies became ill and several died. In September, the FDA took on the task of reassuring the parents and said that there was no threat of pollution in the United States.
The chemical, normally used to make plastics, was detected in milk powder, wheat gluten and other ingredients of Chinese origin used in products ranging from pet food to candy.
Melamine can create the impression that the foods have a higher protein during testing and has become a cheap substance to replace other ingredients, but is dangerous and can damage the kidneys.
However, Leon said that he was not the case in the U.S. infant formula, which was established in September was not made with Chinese ingredients.
The new data "very likely are the result of the process or what manofacturación contact formula cans. There is contamination and it is not pollution," said the spokeswoman.
Leon declined to name the manufacturer of the formula where melamine was found.
