Consumer Reports: Tips to afford safe baby formula
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Baby formula represents a significant cost for many families, especially those in the WIC program, which is essential for nutrition. Consumer Reports has tested 90 formulas for contaminants like lead and arsenic, finding that popular WIC options, Similac Advance and Enfamil Infant, have low levels of harmful substances. While WIC typically offers limited brands, parents can save money by shopping at wholesale retailers or using auto-delivery services. A proposed federal bill may allow WIC to contract with multiple manufacturers, potentially increasing choices and reducing shortages for families relying on this program.
