AUDIENCE: Consumer, Health Care Professional, Pharmacy
ISSUE: Why Not Natural is recalling its Why Not Natural Organic Moringa - Green Superfood because they may be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

The potential for contamination was noted by FDA as part of ongoing outbreak investigation of Salmonella in other products containing moringa powder.
