Recalled powder formulas aren’t meant to be baby formulas and might sicken infants
Designed by Nature’s milk powder formulas look like they’re designed to be baby formulas, but that’s exactly why the company recalled its Base Milk Powder, Cow’s Milk Powder and Goat’s Milk Powder.
“We intend to change our labeling to make it clear that these products are not intended to be used as infant formula,” the California-based company said in a company-written, FDA-posted recall notice.
And, the company said in a Wednesday email to the Miami Herald, “All current packaging will now come with a warning sticker until we can get them reprinted.”
Parents of infants under a year old are warned in the recall notice that the powders “are deficient in multiple nutrients required for infant formula, and the products have not been tested for the presence of Cronobacter, a pathogen that can be particularly dangerous to infants and is required testing for powdered infant formula.”
This covers the above formulas with an expiration date between May 1, 2021 and June 11, 2022.
For a refund, recall instructions or to get any questions answered, consumers should email recall@designedbynature.net.
