The fluoride content of commercially prepared infant foods processed in fluoridated and nonfluoridated plants has been determined. The use of fluoridated water during processing has been shown to increase significantly the fluoride content of certain infant foods. The data obtained have been employed to calculate the minimum and maximum total daily fluoride intake for infants up to 6 months of age. The maximum total daily fluoride intake for infants up to 6 months of age is 0.127 mg of fluoride per kilogram of body weight. An infant consuming human milk or cow's milk and living in a community that does have fluoridated water has a substantially lower total daily fluoride intake.
