"Poisonous Plant Warning Prompts Supplement Recall"

Two companies have recalled dietary supplements after testing found they contained toxic yellow oleander instead of the labeled ingredients, posing serious health risks including neurologic, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular adverse effects. The FDA warned in January that certain dietary supplements labeled as tejocote root or Brazil seed are "adulterated" with yellow oleander, and consumers are advised to stop using and dispose of the products.
