TYSON 2.0 Kava & Kratom Supplement Recalled for Unapproved Additive and pH Control Failure

LGNDS LLC is recalling TYSON 2.0 Kava & Kratom Blend supplement because the product contains kratom, an unapproved food additive, and has a pH above safe levels for an acidified product.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving both an unapproved food additive (kratom) and a process control failure (pH above the maximum allowed level for an acidified product). No illnesses or injuries have been reported, making this a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
