FDA lab tests and in-house tests conducted by infant formula manufacturers reveal that as much as 90 percent of the infant formula sold in the United States may be contaminated with trace amounts of melamine.

In response, rather than demanding a recall of the products, the FDA has declared them all to be safe by abruptly deciding, without any scientific evidence whatsoever, that melamine contamination below 1 ppm is suddenly safe for infants in unlimited quantities.

NaturalNews covers this breaking story in more detail in today's feature article entitled "90 Percent of U.S. Infant Formula May Be Contaminated with Melamine; FDA Abruptly Declares Chemical Safe for Babies," available here: http://www.naturalnews.com/024947.html

Further testing will be necessary to determine whether that is the case, of course, but read the story above to learn why it is quite plausible that such contamination is in place right now.
