US/Silver Spring: OBC Group Corp., a Miami, Florida establishment, recalls all current batch/lots of Nut Diet Max Nuez de la India Seeds and Capsules from the American marketplace due to suspected presence of Thevetia peruviana (commonly called Yellow Oleander). All parts of the Yellow Oleander plant are known to contain Cardiac Glycosides, substances that are highly toxic to humans and animals.
Ingestion of Yellow Oleander can cause various neurologic, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular adverse health effects that may be severe, or even fatal. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhea, abdominal pain, cardiac changes, dysrhythmia (irregular heartbeat), all serious health and safety hazards requiring immediate medical intervention to minimize pain and suffering as well as prevent life-altering injury or death.
