Most reported cases have been ascribed to the use of contaminated well water for preparation of infant formula.1 — 3 Fifteen million families in the United States obtain their drinking water from unregulated wells.4 In a survey of 5500 private water supplies from 9 Midwestern states, 13 % of the wells were found to have
nitrate concentrations > 10 mg / L or 10 ppm nitrate nitrogen, 5 the federal maximum contaminant level.6 It is estimated that 2 million families drink water from private wells that fail to meet the federal drinking - water standard for nitrate, and 40000 infants younger than 6 months live in homes that have nitrate - contaminated water supplies.4 In urban areas, municipal wastewater - treatment discharges (a source of nutrients) on surrounding farmland aggravate the problem.7
For breastfed infants, there is no evidence of an increased risk of methemoglobinemia from maternal ingestion of water with nitrate nitrogen concentrations as high as 100 ppm, because these mothers do not produce milk with high
nitrate concentrations.16 Furthermore, the predominant organism in the gastrointestinal tract (Lactobacillus species) of the breastfed infant does not reduce nitrate to nitrite (see following section).14

nitrate concentrations, the magnitude and pattern of which can only be explained by the observed increase in atmospheric nitrogen deposition.

The longer time needed to reach peak plasma
nitrate concentrations after ingestion of rocket salad and spinach beverages may be related to their higher fiber content and the larger volume ingested (Supplemental Table 1), likely resulting in a slower gastric emptying (34).
