⚠️ Important Information for Parents & Caregivers ⚠️

The CDC is advising families to stop using Nara Organics Whole Milk Organic Infant Formula after a possible link to a multistate infant botulism outbreak. Three infants have been hospitalized, and investigations are ongoing.

If you have this formula at home:

❌ Do not use it
✔️ Return or discard unopened cans
✔️ Label opened cans “DO NOT USE” and store them safely for up to 30 days (they may be needed for testing)
✔️ Wash bottles, feeding supplies, and surfaces that may have come into contact with the formula
✔️ Monitor your baby for symptoms for 1 month after their last exposure

Please contact your child’s healthcare provider immediately if your baby develops:
• Poor feeding
• Unusual weakness
• Loss of head control
• Difficulty swallowing
• Reduced facial expression

Symptoms can take several weeks to appear, so continued monitoring is important.

Please share with parents, caregivers, and anyone caring for infants to help keep our little ones safe. ❤️
