A new recall has been issued for a dietary supplement containing moringa leaf powder following an ongoing Salmonella outbreak, according to an updated food safety alert from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC reported that as of January 29, 2026, a total of 65 people across 28 states have been affected by the outbreak. An additional strain of Salmonella has also been identified in the investigation.
The recall involves Why Not Natural Organic Moringa Green Superfood capsules, lot # A25G051, with an expiration date of July 2028. These products were distributed nationwide. The CDC’s findings indicate that moringa leaf powder is contaminated with Salmonella and is causing illness among consumers.
The CDC advises consumers not to eat any recalled dietary supplements and to either throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. Surfaces and items that may have come into contact with the recalled supplements should be washed thoroughly with hot soapy water or cleaned in a dishwasher. Individuals experiencing severe symptoms associated with Salmonella are encouraged to contact their healthcare provider.
Businesses are instructed not to sell or serve the recalled supplements and to clean and sanitize any surfaces or items that may have come into contact with them.
Salmonella infection typically causes diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps within six hours to six days after exposure. Most cases resolve without treatment within four to seven days, but some individuals—particularly young children, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems—may experience more severe illness requiring hospitalization.

The CDC continues its efforts to identify and respond rapidly to disease outbreaks in order to protect public health across communities in the United States.
