Personal injury attorneys filed the first baby food lawsuit in California and possibly the nation against several baby food companies alleging they knowingly sell products tainted with arsenic, lead, cadmium, and mercury. We represent parents, who allege their seven-year-old son, suffers from neurodevelopmental disorders after consuming substantial quantities of baby foods from the following baby food manufacturers:

 

Childhood exposure to heavy metals

has been found to cause damage to neurological development

Both the Food and Drug Administration and the World Health Organization warn that heavy metals are harmful to health. Infants can experience serious and often irreversible brain damage from even low levels of exposure to heavy metals in baby food. Long-term brain function can also be negatively affected by this.

Inorganic Arsenic

ATSDR reports that organic arsenic presents the greatest health risk among various environmental substances.

Research concludes arsenic exposure has a “significant negative impact on neurodevelopment in children” and has been linked to damage to the central nervous system and cognition.

The following are additional risks associated with exposure:

 

  • Haematlogical/Blood
  • Neurological
  • Respiratory
  • Renal/Kidney
  • Immunological
  • Hepatic/Liver
  • Gastrointestinal

Lead

ATSDR identifies lead as the most significant environmental substance potentially harmful to human health.

Even small doses are extremely harmful, accumulating in the body over time

It leads to behavioral issues, decreased cognitive performance, postnatal growth reduction, and delayed puberty

The danger is especially high for infants and young children

Early childhood exposure to lead has a number of neurological effects, including:   

 

  • Behavioral difficulties
  • Learning disabilities
  • Lowered IQ

Cadmium

The ATDSR ranks cadium 7th on its list of environmental contaminants posing the greatest risk to human health.
According to research, it is associated with:

 

  • Development of ADHD
  • Decrease in IQ, especially in full-scale IQ among boys

Mercury

On the ATSDR’s list of environmental substances that have the greatest impact on human health, mercury ranks #3.

In recent studies, mercury exposure during pregnancy has been associated with adverse neurodevelopment and lower IQ.

An increased level of exposure has been linked to autistic behaviors.

Únase a la demanda por metales pesados ​​en alimentos para bebés: justicia para niños con trastornos del neurodesarrollo

En 2021, un subcomité del Congreso de EE. UU. informó que numerosos productos populares de alimentos para bebés, incluidos cereales de arroz para bebés, galletas para la dentición, purés, pasteles de arroz y otros, contienen "niveles peligrosamente altos" de arsénico, mercurio, plomo y cadmio. Sorprendentemente, Happy Family Organics, Gerber, Hain Celestial (Earth's Best Organic), Beech-Nut, Plum Organics, Walmart (Parent's Choice) y Sprout Organic Food vendieron a sabiendas alimentos contaminados para bebés a padres desprevenidos, según el informe.

Numerosos estudios han relacionado la exposición a metales pesados ​​tóxicos con alteraciones del comportamiento. El vínculo es especialmente pronunciado entre los bebés y los niños pequeños, cuyos cerebros aún se están desarrollando. Incluso en niveles bajos, la exposición a metales pesados ​​puede provocar daños graves e irreversibles en el desarrollo neurológico de los niños. Como observó un estudio reciente:

The congressional oversight committee has proven that seven companies betrayed the public trust by selling baby food containing extremely high levels of toxic chemicals.  Among these companies are some of the most popular baby food suppliers:
