What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The FDA has classified this recall as Class I, which requires a severity score of at least 4. The product is marketed for infants—a high-risk population—and contains dangerous mineral imbalances and critical nutrient deficiencies that could cause serious harm to vulnerable consumers.

Plain-English summary

Moor Herbs is recalling all units of Moor Herbs Healthy Beauty Angel Formula, sold in 16oz. plastic containers, because the product is marketed as an infant formula but has not submitted the required pre-market infant formula notification to the FDA.

FDA testing found that the product contained iron, potassium, and sodium levels well above the maximum acceptable range. These elevated levels could potentially lead to iron overload and/or electrolyte imbalances in infants. Additionally, the product does not contain vitamin D, and vitamin D deficiency can potentially lead to rickets, a softening and weakening of bones.

The affected product was distributed via internet sales and through the firm's storefront. A total of 147 units have been recalled.

Consumers who have purchased this product should not feed it to infants and should discard it or contact the firm for further instructions.
