Survey: What's in Baby's Bottle?

A survey of infant formula

At EWG, we’re working to ensure potentially harmful chemicals are kept out of the foods we eat. Bisphenol A (BPA) is a hormone disruptor found plastic baby bottles and the lining of canned foods including liquid and powdered formulas in steel cans. While there has been a lot of attention to potential exposures from plastic bottles, our calculations suggest that BPA in formula could be a greater health risk.

EWG is preparing an independent analysis of infant exposures to BPA in formula to present to the National Institutes of Health. We need your help to gather food and weight information for real babies to understand the intensity of BPA exposure. Timing is critical! NIH is meeting in early August to make important decisions on BPA safety and use.

TAKE THE SURVEY.
If your baby was fed formula, please take a few minutes to complete the survey below by Tuesday, July 31, 2007. When we’re finished, we’ll send you a customized report for your baby--just indicate your interest at the end of the survey.
