A dangerous Salmonella outbreak has been traced back to contaminated dietary supplements sold under the brand names Live It Up and Why Not Natural. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a nationwide recall after at least 65 people across 28 states reported illness. The Live It Up Super Greens powder and Why Not Natural Moringa Superfood capsules were sold online through Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and the companies’ own websites, reaching households across the country.
Consumers in Wisconsin have been hit the hardest, with 12 confirmed cases and 2 hospitalizations. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Wisconsin is the only state with more than five cases.
The FDA’s recall includes all Live It Up Super Greens powders with lot numbers beginning with “A” and expiration dates from August 2026 through January 2028, as well as Why Not Natural Moringa Green Superfood capsules labeled with lot number A25G051 and an expiration date of July 2028.
Our firm is monitoring this expanding outbreak and its legal implications nationwide. Here’s what stands out:
The contaminated supplements were marketed as health-boosting superfoods, but for dozens of consumers, these products became the source of severe illness. Salmonella is a bacteria that causes gastrointestinal infection, and symptoms can range from mild stomach upset to life-threatening dehydration and hospitalization.
The most common symptoms include:
Symptoms typically appear 12 to 72 hours after exposure and can last up to a week. While most healthy adults may recover without treatment, those with weaker immune systems, young children, and older adults are at much greater risk of serious complications.
When a manufacturer distributes contaminated products that harm consumers, the legal system provides a path to justice through product liability claims. Supplement companies are required to meet federal safety standards, and when they fail to detect, prevent, or promptly recall tainted products, they may be held financially responsible for the harm caused.
Victims may be eligible to recover compensation for:
If you or a family member took either of these recalled products and experienced symptoms of Salmonella infection, you may have the right to pursue legal action.
