Reason for recall
The firm distributes dietary supplements which contain Mitragyna speciosa (kratom) a dietary ingredient with inadequate information to provide reasonable assurance that such ingredient does not present a significant or unreasonable risk of illness or injury. Also, based on FDA sample positive sample results, the red and green strains are potentially contaminated with 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.
