The FDA issued a recall notice for weight loss products, namely Nuez de la India seeds and capsules, which contain a potentially deadly toxin.
While no illnesses have been reported since the recall announcement, per the earlier advisory , one person in Maryland was hospitalized after consuming the Nut Diet Max brand Nuez de la India seeds.
The Maryland Department of Health began sampling and testing products labeled Nuez de la India following the hospitalization. Using their analyses, the FDA and the MDH determined that the Nut Diet Max brand Nuez de la India seeds were actually yellow oleander, and the capsules contained cardiac glycosides that were consistent with the plant.If you bought the recalled Nut Diet Max seeds or capsules, the FDA urges you not to consume them and to return them to your place of purchase instead.
According to the advisory—which also mentioned Todorganic Natural brand Nuez de la India seeds that aren't part of the current recall—if you've taken these products, contact your doctor immediately. "Even if these products have not been used recently, consumers should still inform their health care provider about which product they took, so that an appropriate evaluation may be conducted," the advisory states.
The FDA is also working with third-party platforms and conducting an ongoing investigation. If you have questions pertaining to the recall, contact OBC Group Corp via the telephone number listed in the FDA release.Abby Reinhard is a Senior Editor at Best Life, covering daily news and keeping readers up to date on the latest style advice, travel destinations, and Hollywood happenings.
