On February 18, 2025, the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal (RASFF) reported the detection of Aloe Emodin and Emodin substances in an Aloe vera based food supplement. This incident originated in the Netherlands and falls under the category of control, specifically related to bio-contaminants.
The presence of these substances raises concerns regarding the safety and compliance of the food supplement in question.
