Wise Woman Herbals Kava Capsules recall

Recalled by EarthLab Inc · Creswell, OR, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

The microbial test result is found to be out of specification due to high yeast and mold counts.

Some molds produce toxins, and mold growth usually points to a problem with moisture, packaging or storage. All mold recalls.

FDA's distribution note: nationwide

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
