Reason for recall

Wellements is recalling Wellements Baby Move Prune Concentrate, 4oz. because they have confirmed that their supplier of the ingredient galacto-oligosaccharide which is used in the Baby Move product may be contaminated Salmonella.

Salmonella causes fever, diarrhea and abdominal cramps, usually 12 to 72 hours after eating contaminated food. Most people recover without treatment, but severe cases can need hospital care.
