products are our number one priority for both us and the families we serve. That’s why we hold ourselves to testing standards higher than what are set for food companies in the United States. We are regularly testing our baby food products for heavy metals and pesticide residues to ensure your child’s safety while delivering the balanced nutrition their growing bodies need. \u003Cstrong>Our food’s test results must meet Nurture Life’s strict standards or we will not sell these products.\u003C/strong> Please see below for the details on our testing standards and methods.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Heavy Metals Testing\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>We send all of our Finger Food meals to a third-party certified lab to test for heavy metals, including arsenic, lead, cadmium, and mercury.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Why do we test for heavy metals? Cadmium, mercury, arsenic, and lead are metals that naturally occur in the earth’s crust, soil, water, and air. However, their concentrations have significantly increased due to improper waste disposal, agricultural runoff, and industrial emissions, leading to a rise in environmental and food supply contamination. Exposure to these toxic metals, especially in high amounts, can disrupt development, particularly during early childhood. Reducing exposure requires knowing the source of ingredients, understanding processing methods, and rigorously testing the final product. We adhere to the 2025 limits for lead set by the FDA, and the European Union (EU) safety thresholds for arsenic, mercury, and cadmium. We choose to follow both the EU and FDA regulations because they provide the lowest maximum allowable limits for contaminants and we are committed to ensuring all of our \u003Ca href=\"https://www.nurturelife.com/blog/finger-foods/\">Finger Foods\u003C/a> meet those standards.
