Food Safety Alert: Detection of Bio-contaminants in Dietary Supplements
On October 24, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of Aloe Emodin and Emodin substances in dietary supplements known as liver tabs. This incident originated in India and has been categorized under control measures due to the potential health risks associated with bio-contaminants.
Bio-contaminants are substances that can pose serious health risks when ingested, particularly in dietary supplements that are intended to support liver health. The presence of these compounds raises concerns about the safety and efficacy of the affected products. Consumers are advised to exercise caution and avoid the consumption of any liver tabs that may be linked to this incident.
The Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal (RASFF) has been instrumental in identifying and communicating this issue, highlighting the importance of monitoring food safety standards. Regulatory authorities are expected to take necessary actions to ensure that contaminated products are removed from the market and that public health is protected.
Consumers should remain vigilant and stay informed about food safety alerts, particularly regarding dietary supplements. It is crucial to consult healthcare professionals before using any dietary products, especially those that have been flagged for safety concerns.
