Baby nutrition company, ByHeart, has made the decision to recall five batches of its ByHeart Whole Nutrition Infant Formula out of caution this month, due to potential cross-contamination with Cronobacter sakazakii.

Product numbers affected are 22273 C1, 22276 C1, 22277 C1, 22278 C1, and 22280 C1 printed with use by 01 JAN 24 or 01 JUL 24. Recalled batch numbers can be found on the bottom of the can.
