Find the lot number on the bottom of the container, beside the seal or on the box flap; the expiration date is usually printed next to it. If the code on your container appears above, it is in scope. If the product name matches but the code does not, your unit is not part of this recall, though a second lot is sometimes added later, so re-check the recall list before finishing the bottle.
Why this is a Class I recall
FDA assigns the class by the probability and severity of harm, not by how much product is involved. For this event the reason falls into what we file as contamination (microbial, heavy metal, foreign matter): the product, or a raw material in it, may carry a pathogen, a foreign material or a chemical contaminant. The product itself may be exactly what the label says; the problem is what came with it.
FDA’s definition of Class I (21 CFR 7.3) is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. A Class I recall is the strongest signal FDA sends about a consumer product short of a seizure; it is reserved for the cases where continuing to use the product is itself the risk. The reason text is the authority for this specific event; the class is FDA’s summary judgement of it.
If you bought it
- Stop taking it now; for a Class I recall this is the point of the notice.
- Match your lot against the codes above. Keep the container: the firm’s notice normally offers a refund on proof of the lot number or a photo.
- If you have had symptoms consistent with the contaminant FDA names, tell your doctor and mention the product by name. Then report to FDA MedWatch (online form or 1-800-FDA-1088).
- Check the firm’s other products. This event already covers 2 products. Search “SUPERFOODS, INC.” on the full recall list.
A checked alternative for spirulina
The product in this recall names Spirulina. If you were taking it for that ingredient, the useful next step is a product whose contents can be checked, not a different bottle from the same shelf. Our spirulina guide ranks the products we track by dose per serving, verification and cost per dose. A registry listing (NSF, USP, Informed Sport) is what would have caught a contaminated lot before it shipped; a “tested” claim on the front of the bottle is not.
