Charity calls for improved infant formula controls in UK

Charity calls for improved infant formula controls in UK

A charity in the United Kingdom has made several recommendations to regulators after the cereulide infant formula contamination incident.

First Steps Nutrition Trust said the situation exposed important weaknesses in the safety and security systems governing infant foods.

Contaminated products may have been on the market from May 2025 until the first Food Standards Agency (FSA) alert on Jan. 5, 2026. This raises questions about the adequacy of existing regulatory oversight, surveillance and incident response, said the public health nutrition charity.
