We aggregate lab test results from brands, independent labs, and regulatory data — so you can compare heavy metal levels across every baby food on the shelf.
Free forever for parents. No ads. No brand sponsorships.
Heavy metal levels in parts per billion (ppb). Lower is better. Scores aggregate lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury.

Our scores are based on total heavy metal burden — the combined levels of lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury per product, measured in parts per billion (ppb). We don't rely on a single source.
Required by California AB 899. Brands must test monthly and publish results. We aggregate and normalize across brands.
From Consumer Reports, Clean Label Project, and academic studies. These often tell a different story than self-reported data.
How easy does the brand make it to find this data? Brands that bury results behind lot codes score lower.
How easy does each brand make it for parents to access heavy metal test data? Brands that publish results without requiring lot codes and make data browsable earn higher marks.
Transparency ratings based on Consumer Reports / Unleaded Kids assessment and our own evaluation. More brands will be added as we verify their data access.
