Greens Powder Recall Expands: Reinforcing the Need for Robust Pathogen Control in Supplement Manufacturing

The recent greens powder recall has expanded once again, following newly reported cases of contamination linked to microbial hazards, raising concerns about the safety of plant-based and powdered supplement products. According to new updates, multiple greens powder products have been recalled due to potential contamination risks that threaten consumer health

This growing recall highlights a key vulnerability in the nutraceutical supply chain: botanical, plant-based, and dehydrated powdered formulas are high-risk for microbial contamination, including Salmonella, E. coli, and other pathogens. Without proper sterilization and controlled processing environments, these products can easily become unsafe — even after blending or packaging.

At Bioactive Services, we help manufacturers prevent these risks through validated steam sterilization in the USA, paired with formulation, toll blending, & packaging solutions that safeguard product quality from start to finish.

Why Greens Powders Are Especially Vulnerable

Greens powders often include a combination of:

• Leafy greens
  
• Algae and superfoods
  
• Herbal extracts
  
• Botanical powders
  
• Fermented or sprouted ingredients
  

Due to minimal processing and raw plant origins, these ingredients carry high microbial loads, making robust pathogen control essential.

This is where food sterilization in the USA—particularly steam sterilization—plays a critical role.
