Dietary supplements are being recalled in the US after they were found to contain deadly poison.
Dietary supplements containing a toxic plant are being recalled across the country. Its poison is not safe for human health, and in some cases it can lead to death, reports KSNT.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announces that GA Mart dba H&Natural is voluntarily recalling two commercial lots of H&NATURAL TejoRoot tablets (10 g) and two lots of H&NATURAL Brazil Seed dietary supplement (0,167 g). The reason for this was the results of tests conducted by the FDA. They showed that this product contains yellow oleander.
Poisonous plant
The poison is found in the flowers, branches, stem and leaves of the oleander. The plant contains glycosides that have a beneficial effect on the heart. But if a lot of the juice of this plant gets into a person’s body, his heart muscle is simply paralyzed, as a result of which the person dies. A small amount of yellow oleander in the human body is fraught with neurological, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular disorders.
