3CS Organics Recalls Lebenswert Infant and Toddler Milk Formulas

3CS Organics LLC is recalling specific Lebenswert infant and toddler milk formulas because the products are not FDA approved and lack full English labeling.

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 typically involves a reasonable probability of temporary or medically reversible health consequences. The primary hazard is labeling non-compliance (lack of English labels and FDA approval) rather than a confirmed biological contamination or acute injury, fitting the Moderate severity criteria for labeling errors and voluntary precautionary actions.

Plain-English summary

3CS Organics LLC is voluntarily recalling approximately 25,000 boxes of Lebenswert Bioland Anfangsmilch1, Lebenswert Bioland Folgemilch 2, and Lebenswert Bioland Folgemilch 3. The recall covers all lots of these products, which were distributed nationwide in the United States as well as in Canada, France, Israel, and Mexico.

The recall was initiated because the products are not FDA approved and not all products are labeled in English. This labeling deficiency prevents consumers from fully understanding the product contents and usage instructions, which is a significant concern for infant and toddler nutrition products.

Consumers who have purchased these products should stop using them immediately. They should check their inventory for the specific Lebenswert Bioland Anfangsmilch1, Folgemilch 2, or Folgemilch 3 products and dispose of them or return them to the place of purchase for a refund. No specific lot numbers are listed, so all units of these specific product names should be considered affected.
