Nationwide recall raises serious safety concerns as health officials warn of antibiotic-resistant infections tied to contaminated Rosabella Moringa supplements.

Health officials across the United States are investigating a dangerous multistate outbreak of extensively drug-resistant Salmonella infections connected to certain Rosabella brand moringa powder capsules. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and state public health agencies have confirmed that contaminated dietary supplements may be responsible for a growing number of illnesses.

These capsules, marketed as health supplements and sold primarily online, are now under recall after investigators linked them to infections that may be difficult to treat with commonly used antibiotics. For consumers who trusted these products to support their health, the news is alarming.

Parker Waichman LLP is actively investigating potential claims involving contaminated moringa supplements. Individuals who became ill after using Rosabella moringa capsules may have the right to pursue monetary compensation. If you or a loved one experienced symptoms consistent with Salmonella after using these products, call 1-800-YOUR-LAWYER (1-800-968-7529) for a free consultation.

What Parker Waichman LLP Found

Our legal team is reviewing the developing evidence surrounding this outbreak. Key observations include:

  • Health officials linked an extensively drug-resistant Salmonella strain to the recalled capsules.
  • Online nationwide distribution may have exposed consumers in multiple states.
  • The resistant strain may complicate treatment and increase hospitalization risk.
  • Vulnerable populations face heightened danger from this contamination.
  • Individuals who became seriously ill after using the product may have viable legal claims.

What Investigators Currently Know About the Outbreak

Federal health agencies have identified this situation as an open and ongoing investigation. The outbreak involves an extensively drug-resistant strain of Salmonella, which presents unique medical risks because standard antibiotic treatments may not work effectively.

Fast Facts Reported by Health Officials

  • Confirmed cases: 7
  • Hospitalizations: 3
  • Deaths: 0
  • States affected: 7
  • Product: Rosabella brand moringa powder capsules

Although the number of confirmed cases may appear limited, public health experts often caution that reported cases typically represent only a fraction of actual infections. Many people with Salmonella do not seek testing or medical care, which means the true scope of the outbreak may be larger.

Products Included in the Recall

The recall focuses specifically on Rosabella brand moringa powder capsules distributed by Ambrosia Brands LLC.

Identifying Features

The affected supplements were:

  • Sold in white plastic bottles
  • Packaged with a green label
  • Marked with 52 different lot codes
  • Carrying expiration dates in 2027
  • Distributed nationwide, primarily through online retailers

Where the Capsules Were Sold

Investigators report the product was widely available through:

  • The company’s website
  • Amazon
  • TikTok Shop
  • Shein
  • eBay

Because online distribution can reach consumers quickly and broadly, exposure may have occurred across many regions.

Health officials warn consumers to stop using the capsules immediately and either discard them or return them to the seller.

Why This Salmonella Strain Is Especially Dangerous

Not all Salmonella infections carry the same level of risk. What makes this outbreak particularly concerning is the presence of extensive drug resistance.

According to public health guidance, the strain involved:

  • Is resistant to all commonly recommended first-line antibiotics
  • May resist multiple alternative antibiotic options
  • Carries the NDM-1 carbapenemase gene
  • May require highly tailored treatment decisions

This level of resistance can complicate medical care, particularly for vulnerable populations such as:

  • Children under five
  • Adults age 65 and older
  • Individuals with weakened immune systems
  • People with chronic medical conditions

When infections cannot be easily treated, the risk of severe illness and hospitalization increases.

Symptoms of Salmonella Infection Consumers Should Watch For

Most Salmonella infections begin within 6 hours to 6 days after exposure. While many people recover within a week, others can develop serious complications.

Common Symptoms

  • Diarrhea
  • Fever
  • Stomach cramps
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting

Warning Signs of Severe Illness

Medical attention is recommended if any of the following occur:

  • Fever above 102°F
  • Diarrhea lasting more than three days
  • Bloody diarrhea
  • Inability to keep liquids down
  • Signs of dehydration
  • Reduced urination
  • Dizziness when standing

Consumers who used Rosabella moringa capsules and later experienced these symptoms should inform their healthcare provider about the exposure.

Potential Legal Claims for Injured Consumers

When contaminated food or supplements cause illness, affected individuals may have legal rights under product liability and consumer protection laws.

Possible legal theories may include:

  • Defective manufacturing, if contamination occurred during production
  • Failure to warn, if risks were not adequately disclosed
  • Negligence, if safety protocols were inadequate
  • Breach of warranty, if the product was not reasonably safe for intended use

Even when a recall is issued, manufacturers and distributors can still be held financially responsible for injuries that occurred before the product was removed from the market.

Consumers who required medical treatment, hospitalization, or experienced significant complications may be eligible to seek compensation.

Steps Consumers Should Take Right Now

Public health agencies recommend immediate action:

  1. Do not consume the affected capsules.
  2. Throw away the product or return it.
  3. Wash any surfaces or containers that touched the capsules.
  4. Monitor for symptoms for at least several days after exposure.
  5. Seek medical care for severe symptoms.
  6. Preserve packaging and purchase records if illness occurred.

Keeping documentation can be important if a legal claim becomes necessary.

Why Acting Quickly Matters

Foodborne illness cases often involve strict legal deadlines that vary by state. Waiting too long can limit the ability to pursue compensation.

In addition, evidence is easier to preserve soon after exposure. Medical records, product packaging, and purchase history can all play an important role in evaluating a claim.

Speaking with a product liability attorney early can help protect your legal rights.

Salmonella Lawsuit FAQs

What makes this Salmonella outbreak different from others?
Health officials report that the strain involved is extensively drug-resistant. That means commonly used antibiotics may not work, which can complicate treatment and increase the risk of severe illness. Drug-resistant outbreaks often raise heightened safety concerns because infections may be harder to control once they occur.

Who may qualify to file a lawsuit related to contaminated moringa capsules?
Individuals who consumed the recalled Rosabella moringa powder capsules and later developed confirmed or suspected Salmonella infection may be eligible. In some situations, family members may also have claims if a loved one suffered serious complications. Eligibility depends on medical records, product identification, and timing of symptoms.

Do I need laboratory confirmation of Salmonella to have a case?
Not always. While lab confirmation strengthens a claim, some cases rely on medical diagnosis, symptom timing, and proof of product exposure. An attorney can review available documentation and determine whether the evidence supports a potential claim.

What types of compensation may be available?
Depending on the circumstances, compensation may include medical expenses, hospitalization costs, lost wages, out-of-pocket expenses, pain and suffering, and other related damages. Each case depends on the severity of illness and the documented impact on the individual.

Is there a deadline to file a Salmonella lawsuit?
Yes. Each state has its own statute of limitations. Because deadlines vary and can expire sooner than expected, speaking with a lawyer promptly is important to preserve potential claims.
