was the highest among all samples

, indicating that it is The

3-MCPD content of the product complies with the relevant regulations of the WHO

and the European Food Safety Agency

. However, you don’t have to panic

is much better than the tested ones. The milk powder content must be high

as long as the milk powder that does not exceed the standard

However, the brand has issued a statement claiming that all the relevant ingredients comply with the regulations, and how the results will continue to be followed up.

3. There is a milk powder whose lead content has just reached the upper limit set by the WHO. Although it is not against the regulations, it is somewhat dangerous.

feeding form for reference only after the sampling inspection by the Hong Kong Consumer Council. If necessary, ask the doctor

The Hong Kong Consumer Council recommends the

product packaging feeding form for reference

but Different babies have different physiques and needs.

Parents should consult the medical staff to make adjustments

1. When feeding, follow the instructions on the can and measure the amount of milk powder and water with the spoon provided by the original manufacturer.

2. The protein content of follow-up formula is relatively high, which will load the immature kidneys of newborn babies. Infants under 6 months of age should not drink follow-up formula.

3. The prepared infant formula should be consumed immediately, not at room temperature for too long, should be consumed within 2 hours.

4. In addition, infants under the age of 1 should not drink goat milk, soy milk, whole or low-fat milk, evaporated milk and condensed milk.

The quality of milk powder for children is the most important.

Moms and friends must remember when
