Here’s what the study showed:

➡ 70% of products lack sufficient protein
➡ 25% don’t meet calorie recommendations
➡ 1 in 5 contains too much salt
➡ 25% have added or hidden sweeteners
➡ 44% exceed WHO’s sugar recommendations!

With so many misleading labels and unhealthy options, it’s crucial for parents to be aware and make informed choices for their little ones.

The study revealed that NONE of the commercially produced infant and toddler food products sold by the top 10 grocery retailers in the US met international nutrition and marketing standards.
