Supplements might be tainted, firm says

WASHINGTON – A health firm warned Wednesday that some of its dietary supplements may be contaminated with bacteria that could cause blindness.

Master’s Miracle Inc., based in Minneapolis, said its Fortified Mineral Neutralizer and Ultra Fortified Mineral Neutralizer supplements are at risk of bacterial contamination. According to the FDA, some Master’s Miracle distributors have been promoting use of the supplements in people’s eyes.

If a contaminated product comes in contact with the eyes, it could lead to injury or blindness. The FDA also said the supplements do not meet FDA sterility standards for eye products and should not be used or marketed that way.

The supplements come in 8-ounce, 20-ounce and 1-gallon containers. Call (763) 493-3200 between 6 a.m. and 3 p.m. PDT or visit www.themastersmiracle.com.
