NAFDAC Confirms Safety of Nestlé Infant Formulae Amid Global Recall

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) in Nigeria has confirmed the safety of Nestlé infant formulae in the country amid a global recall of a specific batch in the UK due to potential cereulide toxin presence. Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, the Director-General of NAFDAC, reassured the public that the Nestlé infant formulae approved for the Nigerian market are safe for consumption and not part of the recalled batch.

The affected batch triggered symptoms like nausea and vomiting when consumed. NAFDAC emphasized its commitment to public health and vigilance in monitoring food safety concerns.
