NUK First Choice Glass Baby Bottles Recalled due to Lead in Excess of Allowable Limit

The markings on the outside of the bottle contain lead in excess of the allowable limit established by the Consumer Products Containing Lead Regulations. Lead is toxic if ingested, especially to children. A range of serious health effects have been associated with exposure to lead including anemia, vomiting, diarrhea, serious brain injury, convulsions, coma, as well as effects related to the liver, kidneys, heart and immune system. In extreme cases, there have been deaths. Since lead builds up in the body, ongoing exposure to even very small amounts of lead can result in large amounts of lead being present in the body. For more information on the risks and symptoms, visit the Government of Canada's website pages Reduce your exposure to lead and Lead Information Package - Some Commonly Asked Questions About Lead and Human Health. As of July 20, 2022, the company has received no reports of injuries in Canada. In the Unites States, the company has received no reports of injury.
