How does United States of America Food and Drug Administration regulate Infant Formulas?

A - The safety and nutritional quality of infant formulas are ensured by requiring that manufacturars follow specific procedures in manufacturing infant formulas. In fact, there is a law -- known as the Infant Formula Act -- which gives United States of America Food and Drug Administration special authority to create and enforce standards for commercial infant formulas. manufacturars must analyze each batch of formula to check nutrient levels and make safety checks. They must then test samples to make sure the product remains in good condition while it is on the market shelf. Infant formulas must also have codes on their containers to identify each batch and manufacturars must keep very detailed records of production and analysis.
