What officials are investigating
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and state partners, is investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium infections linked to Live it Up-brand Super Greens dietary supplement powder. The FDA’s outbreak notice describes an ongoing investigation and says more products could potentially be identified as the work continues.
According to the FDA, reported illnesses associated with the outbreak occurred over a period spanning late 2025, with cases reported across numerous states. The agency reported hospitalizations among those affected and said no deaths had been reported at the time of its most recent update.
Products and where they are sold
The product named in the FDA alert is Live it Up-brand Super Greens dietary supplement powder, including original and wild berry flavors, with expiration dates ranging from 08/2026 to 01/2028. The FDA said the supplement is primarily sold online, including through the company’s website and major e-commerce platforms.
The FDA stated it recommended a recall and reported that the firm agreed to initiate a voluntary recall. Officials also advised people who have the product not to consume it and to either dispose of it safely or return it to the place of purchase, depending on retailer policies.
Symptoms and what consumers should do
Salmonella infections typically cause diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps, and symptoms often appear within a few days after exposure. The FDA emphasized that young children, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk for severe illness.
In addition to not using the product, the FDA advised consumers to clean and sanitize any surfaces or containers that may have come into contact with the powder to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
