Food Safety Alert: Undeclared Contaminants Detected in Animal Liver Products

Date: October 10, 2025

Recent findings have raised significant concerns regarding the safety of liver products sourced from various animals. An incident reported through the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal has identified the presence of undeclared dexamethasone, a corticosteroid, in these products. This contamination poses potential health risks to consumers, particularly for those who may be sensitive to such substances.

The liver, a commonly consumed organ meat, is often valued for its rich nutrient profile. However, the detection of contaminants like dexamethasone highlights the importance of stringent food safety controls and monitoring throughout the food supply chain. The source of this issue has been traced back to Poland, where the liver products were processed.

Consumers are advised to remain vigilant and check for any advisories or recalls related to liver products from various animals. It is crucial to ensure that any food consumed is free from harmful contaminants to safeguard public health. Regulatory authorities are expected to take necessary actions to address this issue and prevent further occurrences.

For more information, stay updated through official food safety channels and consider consulting with health professionals if you have concerns regarding the consumption of affected products.
