Overview

• The Food Standards Agency ordered an urgent recall of all Orgenism Eggshell Membrane Capsules after detecting an ESBL-producing Salmonella strain linked to consumer illnesses.
• Laboratory confirmation shows the Salmonella resists fluoroquinolones, tetracycline and fosfomycin, raising concerns over treatment challenges.
• The recalled supplement was sold online through Amazon, eBay and Orgenism’s website, and all sales have been suspended.
• Consumers must return capsules using prepaid envelopes for safe disposal and avoid discarding them in household waste or flushing to prevent environmental spread.
• Orgenism is offering full refunds to customers and public health authorities advise anyone unwell after consumption to seek medical attention as investigations continue.
