Blue Baby Syndrome Did you know that when nitrates interact with the hemoglobin in red blood cells turns the hemoglobin; which carries oxygen‚ forms a new substance called methemoglobin. Methemoglobin can’t carry sufficient oxygen to the body ’s cells and tissues. This doesn’t seem to be a problem in adults‚ but when it comes to infants it seems to be a problem. I am strongly persuaded that nitrate in well water has to deal with blue baby syndrome. According to two cases on Environmental Health
