Has anyone tried giving their baby organic baby formula? Will doing this give my baby future problems with non-organic brands?

My sister uses Bellamy's organic formula since she is unable to nurse her baby (mastitis). She started it after consultation from her doctor who gave her a few pointers to what to look out for in organic baby formula. Here's what she said: - Look for non-organic ingredients: Watch out for formula containing GMO, traces of pesticides, milk with antibiotics or growth hormones, and even oil extracted from hectane. - Watch out for soy: Soy formula is recommended only when the baby suffers from dairy intolerance. It may contain soy protein isolates, which is highly processed and they contain 13,000 to 22,000 times more concentration of estrogen. (Read: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9848516) - Palm oil: Breastmilk has palmitic acid so, many formula also try to replicate by adding palm oil. However, the baby is not able to absorb it. It is also shown to have decreased bone density. (Read: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12728082) - Preservatives: Many baby formulas contain synthetic preservatives like beta carotene and ascorbic palmitate.

They are unsafe because they cross the safe limit of arsenic.
