NUTRITION ASSISTANCE: Additional Guidance Could Assist States in Reducing Risk of Online Sale of Infant Formula

Note: The authorized supplemental foods must be prescribed from food packages according to the category and nutritional needs of the participants. Formula amounts issued to breastfed infants are to be tailored to meet but not exceed the infant's nutritional needs. For example, a fully-breastfed infant would not receive any formula. For the complete food package requirements, including which participants are eligible for each package and maximum monthly allowances, see 7 C.F.R. § 246.10(e). a) Food Package Three is reserved for participating women, infants, and children with qualifying conditions, such as premature birth, low birth weight, metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, or immune system disorders. Authorized staff at local agencies determine nutritional risk and prescribe supplemental foods for individuals receiving Food Package Three according to medical documentation provided by health care professionals. b) Food Packages Four and Six include the option of legumes or peanut butter, but not both. Food Packages Five and Seven include both legumes and peanut butter. c) Bread is not a category of supplemental food under Food Package Six.
