Benefiber Recall
posted (May 29, 2013)
Do you use a nutritional supplement called Benefiber? Well, if you do, the Ministry of Health today announced a voluntary recall of the powder. As the word "voluntary" suggests there's no urgent health risk but the recall is triggered by complaints by consumers about a lack of odour, lack of flavour, bad dissolution and the presence of particles. A release says "the US-based manufacturing facility of this product has extended the recall to Belize simply as a cautionary action." Belizean consumers who want to get rid of their products are asked to either destroy or return the unused portion to the local store where they bought it.

The recall only covers specific product batches and you can find those at the Ministry of Health website.
