Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

The dietary supplements were found to contain lead, mercury and/or arsenic at levels exceeding permissible limits.

Lead and other heavy metals accumulate in the body. Children are most at risk; even low levels can affect development.
