Risk:

Consumption of Wise Wife Brand Ground Cinnamon contaminated with elevated levels of lead poses a potential health risk. Short-term exposure to very low levels of lead may not elicit any symptoms. Increased blood lead levels may be the only apparent sign of lead exposure. Additional signs and symptoms are more likely with acute exposure to higher levels of lead or chronic exposure to lead. If a child is exposed to enough lead for a prolonged period of time, such as weeks to months, permanent damage to the central nervous system may occur, resulting in learning disorders, developmental defects, and other long-term health problems.

Impacted states: CT, IN, KS, MA, MI, MN, NC, NE, NY, OH, PA, TX, VA, WI
