We live in the 21st century – companies would not get away with stuff like that! Of course it is safe, otherwise it would not be on the market. I fed my baby S26 and he is absolutely fine. I’ve since changed to Karicare Gold, though, as it’s proven to be more beneficial than the s26
Major U.S. manufacturers of infant formula line their packages with material that contains unsafe levels of a chemical linked to reproductive problems

S 26
Ingredients: Lactose; vegetable oils [palm, coconut, oleic (safflower or sunflower), soybean]; non-fat milk powder; alpha-lactalbumin (alpha protein) enriched whey protein concentrate; emulsifiers (soy lecithin, monoglycerides); long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids from single-cell sources [arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) L-methionine; taurine; nucleotides (cytidine-5′-monophosphate; disodium uridine-5′-monophosphate; adenosine-5′-monophosphate; disodium inosine-5′-monophosphate; disodium guanosine-5′-monophosphate); antioxidants (mixed tocopherols concentrate, ascorbyl palmitate).

The above ingredients are fairly standard for infant formula

I can find nothing to show s26 has in it steroids, I would consider it as safe as an infant formula can be expected to be

I think it is totally safe I was raised on it and my oldest daughter was aswell and my 10 month old is on it now she is a little over weight but healthy. If you belived everything everyone said you would not eat or drink anything.
