The Ministry of Health reports a proactive recall of baby food and specialty food formulas from the global company Nestlé, following the possible identification of the toxin ceruloide, which originates from the bacterium Bacillus cereus.
The toxin can cause excessive vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain and cramps, diarrhea, and weakness, especially in infants.
After an examination conducted by the Ministry of Health with the relevant authorities, as of this time, the products included in the voluntary recall are not commercially imported into Israel and are not marketed in Israel.
