The results showed that the highest concentration of the studied elements in the milk samples was for the lead element compared to the zinc element. There was a significant difference in concentrations of the studied elements between the milk types and their age stages. However, this difference was not significant. The highest concentration of zinc and lead in Bebelac milk observed from six months to one year. For nutrients, lead concentrations increased more than zinc, especially in grain-containing nutrients, and the concentration of lead (3.8 mg / L) in the samples of Primalac milk against rehydration and the consumer in the age range from birth until the year. No significant differences observed between the concentration of zinc in both Primalac and Bebelac milk.
