(TheProudRepublic.com) – The Food Drug Administration (FDA) has once again sounded the alarm on ground cinnamon, issuing a third public health alert in 2024 due to dangerous lead contamination.

Watch the video below.

The FDA’s latest health alert on lead-contaminated cinnamon exposes yet another government failure to protect American families.

As the Biden administration focuses on woke agendas, dangerous products slip through regulatory cracks, putting our children at risk.

The latest warning targets “Super Brand” cinnamon, adding to a growing list of potentially dangerous spices infiltrating American homes.

This revelation follows the shocking discovery of lead-tainted applesauce pouches that affected over 250 children across 43 states in 2023.

Lead poses a silent yet significant risk, especially to children, as it accumulates in the body over time, potentially leading to severe health complications.

The affected brands are Super Brand, Asli, El Chilar, Marcum, SWAD, Supreme Tradition, Compania Indiilor Orientale, ALB Flavor, Shahzada, Spice Class, and La Frontera.

This influx of potentially dangerous foreign products underscores the need for stricter import controls and a renewed focus on domestic production.

Director of food safety research and testing at Consumer Reports James Rogers said, “Even small amounts of lead pose a risk because, over time, it can accumulate in the body and remain there for years, seriously harming health.”

The FDA’s response to this crisis is deeply concerning. Instead of taking swift, decisive action to protect American families, the agency is merely “advising” consumers to discard affected products and recommending that suppliers “voluntarily” test their goods.

Meanwhile, the FDA claimed to be working on its “Closer to Zero” initiative, which aims to reduce childhood exposure to toxic elements in food. Yet, it is questionable how close to zero consumers are when lead-laced products continue to flood the markets.

Furthermore, Consumer Reports revealed that 12 out of 36 tested cinnamon products still had lead levels exceeding acceptable limits, prompting increased vigilance among regulatory bodies.

According to the expanded alert posted in early November, the agency continues to work with states to test cinnamon sold directly to consumers at retail and to test cinnamon at import.

The FDA will also continue its import activities to prevent unsafe cinnamon from reaching consumers in the U.S., including adding firms and products to import alerts where appropriate.
