European Union sets new limits for toxin in infant formula after contamination earlier this year
The European Commission has established strict permanent food safety limits for the 'cereulide' toxin in infant formula, follow-on formula, and medicinal foods for infants. These new maximum levels for both powdered and liquid products will serve as the basis for controls by food business operators and national competent authorities.
Why it matters
If you purchase infant formula in Portugal, you can expect stricter safety monitoring and toxin limits on these products, following earlier recalls that affected several European countries.Correio da ManhãRead original ↗
