Galactooligosaccharides (GOS) is a “highly pure food grade powder derived from milk lactose” with uses including being an ingredient in dietary supplements for kids.
Since as early as May 10, 2012, Westchester, IL-based Corn Products International Inc. has recalled the GOS manufactured in South Korea and sold in 44.1 lb. plastic bags for food use only in the U.S.
Corn Products issued the recall in early May because almost 20 tons of GOS may be contaminated with Salmonella. The ingredient was distributed to eight states and Canada, Czech Republic, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
But only now has Sedona Labs recalls “certain lots” of its our iFlora® Kids Multi-Probiotic® and iFlora™ 4-Kids Powder distributed between 3/16/2011 and 5/3/2012 over concern for possible Salmonella contamination from the GOA ingredient
