About the screening score. This draft ranks by estimated formula-window intake vs named protective anchors (MADL / RfD / FAO-WHO where cited) — not cohort percentiles and not LeaveDuration “lifetime” math. Missing metals are listed as not tested and do not earn a purity bonus. EU 2023/915 powder maxima remain on the lab bars. HiPP Dutch Stage 1 Pb/Cd sit under those MLs and still show year-window intake here. See Learn. DO NOT treat as merged product math until James reviews.
~1-year intake listing
Estimated intake vs protective anchors
Default scenario: 24 fl oz/day × 365 days (~105.6 g powder/day at 4.4 g/fl oz). At this volume, feeding Total Comfort costs about $3.87/day ($116/month).
Incomplete coverage: 3 of 4 key metals measured. Missing rows are not treated as clean.
Anchors are protective references (e.g. CA OEHHA Pb MADL 0.5 µg/day; Cd MADL 4.1 µg/day; EPA iAs RfD with disclosed 6.1 kg infant; Al FAO/WHO 400 ppb powder MPL as screening context) — not “safe/unsafe” diagnoses and not EU legal MLs. Assumptions are editable above. See Learn. Discuss with your pediatrician.
