MDHHS and MDARD are urging Michigan families to stop using specific cinnamon brands due to elevated lead levels. Following FDA’s request, six companies have been urged to recall their products, with five complying. Brands affected include La Fiesta, Marcum, MK, SWAD, Supreme Tradition, and El Chilar. Consumers should discard these items immediately to avoid health risks. MDHHS stresses the importance of blood lead testing, especially for pregnant individuals and children. While the source of contamination differs from previous incidents, MDHHS and MDARD are closely monitoring the situation. Stay informed through FDA alerts and consider blood lead testing if concerned.
