ABSTRACT Complementary breastfeeding (MPASI) is an important stage in meeting the nutritional needs of babies after 6 months age. However, contamination heavy metals, such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), complementary foods can be a serious threat to health who have more vulnerable metabolism than adults. The aim this study identify level metal (Pb Cd) food products circulating Indonesia. method used uses atomic absorption spectroscopy (SSA), preparation destruction microwave system with combination 65% HNO 3 30% H 2 O solvents (7:1). results showed that all MPASI (A, B, C, D) studied contained Cd Pb exceeding maximum limit set by World Health Organization (WHO) (Cd < 0.010 mg/L 0.020 mg/L), highest concentrations were found sample code C (chicken) 0.63 ± 0.0397 2.21 0.1868 mg/L, respectively. This expected provide scientific data supports strengthening safety regulations increase public awareness importance choosing safe foods.
