What's the Problem?
The recalled product is ByHeart Whole Nutrition Infant Formula, Milk Based Powder with Iron for 0-12 Months in 24 oz containers, according to a Recall Notice [1] issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
"Cronobacter bacteria can cause severe, life-threatening infections (sepsis) or meningitis (an inflammation of the membranes that protect the brain and spine)," FDA said. "Symptoms of sepsis and meningitis may include poor feeding, irritability, temperature changes, jaundice (yellow skin and whites of the eyes), grunting breaths and abnormal movements. Cronobacter infection may also cause bowel damage and may spread through the blood to other parts of the body."
The recalled ByHeart Infant Formula was distributed to consumers in the United States, and can be identified by the number on the bottom of the can. Recalled product batches are 22273 C1, 22276 C1, 22277 C1, 22278 C1, and 22280 C1 printed with use by 01 JAN 24 or 01JUL 24.
This recall was initiated after one test sample collected from ByHeart's third-party packaging facility tested positive for Cronobacter sakazakii.
If you purchased any baby formula that is affected by this recall, you should discard it immediately or return it to the point of purchase for a refund.
If your baby is experiencing any symptoms of Cronobacter infection, you should contact your healthcare provider immediately or dial 9-1-1.
This recall began on December 11, 2022.
