According to the reporter's investigation, although the fragrance ban has not yet been implemented and the truth about the hormone scandal has been revealed, the public's consumption philosophy has already undergone subtle changes, shifting from a mere pursuit of brands in the past to a pursuit of product categories. Moreover, organic infant formula, which sits at the top of the food pyramid, is selling extremely well. Its two major advantages—no added fragrances or flavorings and no hormones—have prompted consumers to embark on the “organic path.”文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11253/

Jiang Zhuoqin, a food and nutrition expert at Sun Yat-sen University, expressed “firm opposition” to the addition of fragrances to infant formula. He said that essences and flavorings have no nutritional value and are not essential nutrients.

Therefore, experts suggest that mothers should try to eat organic food during pregnancy, and for babies with relatively sensitive taste, organic food is even more appealing.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11253/
