Similac

The Pentagon says the heavy use of weapons has exposed bottlenecks in the U.S. defense industry, slowing efforts to replenish stocks.

The maker of Similac infant formula Abbott Laboratories will pay nearly US$385 million to settle claims it knowingly sold formula made at a facility that failed safety requirements.

The U.S. Justice Department says the Michigan plant had unsanitary conditions, including roof leaks, deteriorating equipment and inadequate cleaning procedures.

The plant was shut down in 2022 after four infants who consumed formula made there developed rare bacterial infections.

It is a heartbreaking struggle for many parents, Zeon.

Mothers report searching pharmacies in Malay and Outer Islands for days without success, unable to find essential supplies of formulas like NAN Stage 2, Lactogen, and Similac.

Community groups are sharing appeals online as families urge regulatory authorities and commercial importers to resolve supply disruptions immediately.

That shortage comes at a particularly difficult time, as the Health Protection Agency has also issued a nationwide warning regarding a surge in acute diarrhea and vomiting cases.

You should know about this.

Abbott Labs recalling some of their Similac, uh, Elementum, also EleCare baby formulas.

The FDA is investigating four different illnesses in infants that could be connected to the formula.

One may have contributed to a death.

They're still investigating, but two of those instances were right here in Texas.

On Thursday, February 17th, 2022, a recall notice was issued in the United States for three infant formulas produced by Abbott Nutrition, including Similac, one of the most popular brands in the country.

The Food and Drug Administration was investigating reports that four infants in three different states had been sickened by Cronobacter sakazakii, a naturally occurring environmental pathogen found in soil and water that thrives in dried milk and powdered infant formula, which are rarely exposed to high heat.

Cronobacter, whose name is derived from Cronus, the Titan in Greek mythology best known for devouring his own children, has an especially insidious effect on babies.

the baby's head is the same as their body.

So if they're on their back, you're pushing these mothers to give them Similac is a heavy acidic.

They're going to, if they choke, they can't lift and

turn, but

My mom was too

poor to afford that Similac.

My mom was too vain, even though she would have lost weight if she did it.

But whatever.

What you need? I got that lack.

I got that Similac.

I got

that Similac.

Hey, I got some Nylas.

With the Similac, it's fitting as

fuck.

Oh my God, that's funny.

The ready-to-feed whole milk liquid formula, it's the first of its kind.

It's called Similac 360 Total Care Made with Whole Milk.

Abbott says its new product is the result of parents asking for additional whole milk options because they more closely resemble breast milk.

And this, it says, is Similac's closest formula to breast milk.

Formula made with whole milk still requires other oils to be added that are essential for infant nutrition to more closely match it.

Now it's important to point out that this formula is not nutritionally superior to powdered infant formula and both are safe options to feed babies.

I think I told you we went to AI to compare the milks because I've been trying to find something that's comparable to mother's milk.

And the only thing I found was Similac, except it's all chemicals.

It's got vitamins and minerals, but they're isolated constituents.

No power.
