The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has confirmed the presence of a toxin that can cause food poisoning in some Nestlé baby formula products. At the start of this month, the Swiss food and drink company recalled several batches of its SMA infant formula and follow-on formula due to concerns they contained cereulide, which can trigger nausea and vomiting when consumed. The Nestlé products affected include SMA Advanced First Infant Milk, SMA Advanced Follow-On Milk, SMA Anti Reflux, SMA Alfamino, SMA First Infant Milk, SMA Little Steps First Infant Milk, SMA Comfort, and SMA Lactose Free. “If further recalls are needed, we will announce them immediately.”The FSA urged anyone who has bought the recalled formula to stop using it and switch to an alternative. The batch numbers of the affected products in the UK can be found on the Nestle website or by visiting food.gov.uk.
