What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 1/5 (Low).
Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class III, which indicates the product is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The issue is a minor labeling error regarding unit notation (mg vs mcg) on the front panel, which falls under the 'Low' severity criteria for documentation or packaging-only problems.
Plain-English summary
National Vitamin Company Inc is voluntarily recalling 3,370 bottles of Nature's Blend Folic Acid 1000 mcg Dietary Supplement. The product is a 1000-count bottle with Product Number 1280 and UPC 0-79854-51280-9. The affected lots are 9JA08 and 9JA09, with an expiration date of 10/22.
