Inquiry Clears Nestle Formula in Tragic Infant Case
A French judicial inquiry found no connection between a baby's death and the recalled Nestle infant formula. Tests detected cereulide, a toxin, in a Chinese supplier's ingredients but not in the Nestle product. Investigations in other areas continue, with Nestle fully cooperating with authorities.
A French judicial inquiry has ruled out any link between a baby's death and the recalled Nestle infant formula he consumed, according to the Bordeaux prosecutor.
Investigations revealed the presence of cereulide, a toxin that causes nausea and vomiting, in ingredients from a Chinese supplier, affecting several infant formula brands. This prompted widespread precautionary recalls.
However, tests on the Nestle-produced Guigoz brand formula consumed by the infant showed no traces of cereulide. Similar investigations in Angers and Blois are still underway, with Nestle providing full cooperation.
