Peace of Mind, Spoon by Spoon.
We are dedicated to baby food safety.
We have prioritized foods eaten by babies and young children because their smaller body sizes and metabolism make them more vulnerable to the harmful effects of these contaminants.
We list the quantity of heavy metals present in baby food.
