In a significant health alert, Herbaland Naturals Inc. has announced a recall of all Herbaland gummy vitamins and supplements sold in bulk. This recall is due to the potential serious health risks these products may pose, particularly to children and pregnant individuals.
These products, sold at various bulk, low- or zero-waste refillery stores across Canada, lack the necessary labeling, depriving consumers of critical information for safe consumption. This includes dosing instructions, ingredient lists, and safety warnings.

Why This Recall is Critical
The absence of proper labeling can lead to the misuse of these supplements, leading to health issues ranging from minor ailments like upset stomachs to severe reactions such as allergic responses or even birth defects in unborn children. Children and pregnant people are especially vulnerable due to their unique physiological needs and sensitivities.
The Confusion with Candy
Adding to the risk is the possibility of these gummies being mistaken for candy, increasing the likelihood of overconsumption, especially among children.
Health Canada’s Involvement
