Aluminum Content of Infant Formula Remains a Challenge for Pfizer Pharmalot submits: A new study finds that the aluminum content of infant formula remains unacceptably high and one of the manufacturers cited is SMA Nutrition, a company based in the UK and owned by Pfizer (PFE). The issue is significant, of course, for public health reasons, but also for Pfizer, which Wall Street projects will derive a growing proportion of revenue from its nutrition business over the next few years. The study (pdf), which was published in BMC Pediatrics, examined 15 infant formulas, including powered and ready-made liquid formulas based on cow’s milk and a soy-based product, for babies at various ages. The researchers found that concentrations of aluminum in the milk formulas varied from 200 to 700 micrograms per liter and would cause up to 600 ug of aluminum to be ingested per day.
