National Enzyme Co Recalls Wellzymes Digestive Health Enzyme Supplement
National Enzyme Co is recalling Wellzymes Digestive Health Enzyme Supplement bottles because the raw material may contain chloramphenicol levels exceeding 0.3 ppb.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which is typically associated with a temporary or medically reversible health risk. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or fatalities, and the hazard is a potential contamination with a specific threshold limit rather than a confirmed high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
