FDA recall appears in this brand's history

An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.

Evidence and sources

This recall is not about the product on this page. Pure Encapsulations, Inc. recalled a different product on November 17, 2017. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Pure Encapsulations Systemic Enzyme Complex DIETARY SUPPLEMENT 180 CAPSULES UPC: 7 66298 00862…”

CheckedWho is behind it?

The barcode identity checks out · 766298025216.

The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.

Evidence and sources

Open Food Facts resolves 766298025216 to "Berberine UltraSorn" (Pure Encapsulations) — consistent with this listing.
