Has anyone heard about the Similac formula issue?


how can a formula company not know there vitamins does not have enough vitamin C in it. Aren't they supposed to check that? It could cause : If infants drink formula without enough vitamin C for two to four weeks, they could start exhibiting symptoms of vitamin C deficiency, which include irritability with generalized tenderness

Answers:
It was an isolated incident. It was not actually a lack of vitamins in the formula, it was a layer missing from the cans that affected the Vitamin C, and they did catch it, and a can of formula should not last for 4 weeks anyway unless the baby is close to a year old and eating other foods. The baby should also be on liquid vitamins anyway. Other women are using this as just one more reason to bash women that choose to formula feed!
yet another reason to breastfeed.. breastmilk doesnt get recalled :)
