The affected product has been removed from shelves due to potential contamination from <strong>moringa leaf powder<\/strong>, though it has not yet been officially recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contaminated Moringa Powder Identified as Source<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)<\/strong> and <strong>Food and Drug Administration (FDA)<\/strong> traced the contamination to a single batch of <strong>organic moringa leaf powder<\/strong> imported from <strong>Vallon Farm Direct in Jodhpur, India<\/strong>. Samples collected by state health officials in <strong>Virginia<\/strong> and <strong>Michigan<\/strong> tested positive for Salmonella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the investigation continues, the CDC warns consumers to <strong>discard or return any Member\u2019s Mark Super Greens Powder products<\/strong> they have at home. The agency also noted it may expand its list of moringa-based products to avoid as new information emerges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reported Cases and Symptoms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between <strong>May and September 2025<\/strong>, 11 individuals in <strong>Florida, Kansas, Michigan, North Carolina, New York, South Carolina, and Virginia<\/strong> contracted Salmonella after consuming the supplement. Three patients required hospitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Salmonella infection symptoms<\/strong> may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nausea and vomiting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diarrhea (sometimes bloody)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Abdominal pain and cramping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fever and chills<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In severe cases, the bacteria can lead to <strong>arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, and urinary tract complications<\/strong>, particularly among <strong>young children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Consumers Should Do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consumers are urged to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Check for Member\u2019s Mark Super Greens Powder<\/strong> in their homes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dispose of the product or return it<\/strong> to any Sam\u2019s Club store.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wash hands and disinfect surfaces<\/strong> that may have come into contact with the powder to prevent cross-contamination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Moringa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Moringa oleifera<\/strong>, native to India and other regions, is valued for its high levels of <strong>protein, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals<\/strong>. It is commonly marketed as a <strong>superfood supplement<\/strong> in powder form, added to smoothies and drinks for nutritional support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As health officials continue monitoring the outbreak, consumers are advised to stay updated through CDC and FDA safety alerts regarding <strong>moringa-based supplements<\/strong> and other potentially affected products.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Federal health authorities have linked Member\u2019s Mark Su [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"saved_in_kubio":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2484","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2484"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2485,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484\/revisions\/2485"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2484"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2484"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportpro.cc\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2484"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
