In addition, “fenugreek leaves” from the same manufacturer are currently being recalled: The pesticide chlorpyrifos was found in the product, as the warning says.
This insecticide is also banned in the European Union - for good reason: The agent is used against pests in agriculture and can cause massive damage to nerves and genes in children.
The “fenugreek leaves”, however, come from India, where the remedy is still approved.
