In a very weird recall, NiutriVitaShop, doing business as NatureCom Inc. is recalling its DMAA because it may contain DMAA. DMAA is ,3-dimethylamylamine, methylhexanamine, also called geranium extract.
DMAA is used as a stimulant, pre-workout, and weight loss ingredient in dietary supplement products. The FDA warns that DMAA is “potentially dangerous to health as it can narrow blood vessels and arteries, which can cause a rise in blood pressure or other cardiovascular problems such as shortness of breath, arrhythmias, tightening in the chest, and heart attack.”
It was purchased through a direct sales force in the U.S. and Puerto Rice and through online sales. The product is net weight 500 grams, in a 8″ x 11″ silver and clear mylar ziplock bags. The lot numbers are 20141102, 20150715, 20151022, 20160226, 20160701, 20161017 and 20150323. No adverse reactions have been reported to date.
If you purchased this product, do not consume it. Take it back to the place of purchase for a refund. Any adverse reactions can be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting System.
