The government is now operating in accordance with the Guidance on Caretaker Conventions, pending the outcome of the 2025 federal election.
Metagenics (Aust) Pty Ltd is recalling batch 007764 of Ethical Nutrients Mega Magnesium Raspberry Powder (Exp: 07/2025) due to high pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) content.
The affected product has been distributed nationwide.
What is the problem?
Due to a manufacturing error, the pyridoxine content is twice the amount stated on the label. This means that it slightly exceeds the 100mg maximum recommended daily dose.
Ingestion of excessive pyridoxine may cause tingling, burning and numbness.
What should I do?
If you have purchased Ethical Nutrients Mega Magnesium Raspberry Powder batch 007764, do not use it. The batch number can be found on the side of the bottle, under the directions for use, and near the barcode. Return the product to the place of purchase for a refund.
