The Reality About Commercial Baby Food.

Do you know that recent studies confirm that sixty percent of baby foods on grocery store shelves are unhealthy?

Researchers say that 60 percent of infant and toddler foods at major grocery stores in the U.S. currently fail to reach nutritional recommendations — and none meet the World Health Organization’s promotional requirements.

In a study published Monday and led by The George Institute for Global Health, the authors combed through data on more than 650 infant and toddler food products sold in the top 10 U.S. grocery chains.

The study’s contributors visited eight stores in Raleigh, North Carolina, including Walmart, Kroger, Costco, Sam’s Club, Target, and Aldi.

Among the products analyzed, a whopping 70 percent failed to meet protein requirements, and 44 percent exceeded total sugar requirements. One in four products also failed to meet calorie requirements, and one in five exceeded the recommended sodium limits.
