Q: I read somewhere that melamine is added to milk powder for lowering production costs and this can cause irreversible damage to the kidneys. Is it true? I give Naan 2 milk powder to my two years old daughter. Is it safe for my daughter?

A:I understand your concern about the milk powder. They are all supposed to be safe and melamine free. It is not a legal additive. I neither advocate, nor am I against any particular brand. These are personal decisions. In case you feel uncomfortable with milk powders, you may consider the normal milk we all consume as your daughter is two years old now.
