High Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Infants and toddlers are uniquely vulnerable to chemical exposure. Their bodies are still developing, their detoxification systems are immature, and they spend more time on floors and put objects in their mouths. Pound-for-pound, children receive higher doses of environmental chemicals than adults from the same products.

Why We Recommend This Product

Medela's BPA-free milk contact parts are a meaningful commitment. The pump is well-designed and effective. The plastic housing is not in contact with milk. A reasonable choice for breastfeeding mothers who want to minimize BPA exposure.
