Organ Risk - Certain artificial flavoring agents have been associated with organ toxicity in animal studies, particularly affecting the liver and kidneys after repeated ingestion. Babies are more vulnerable due to their developing organs.

Immune system - Some artificial flavors may alter immune responses or increase the risk of allergies, especially in infants with developing immune systems.
