Product Information
Dear Customers, the quality of our products and your trust in our brand are our top priorities. Following the principle of utmost caution and full transparency, we would like to inform you about the completely voluntary and precautionary withdrawal from the market of the following dietary supplements:
Osavi Mushroom Blend 8 in 1, batch numbers: 2972512PL, expiry date 11/2028; 1052504PL, expiry date 03/2028; 1052504EN, expiry date 10/2028; 2972512EN, expiry date 11/2028
Osavi Mushroom Blend 4 in 1, batch numbers: 1032504PL, expiry date 03/2028; 2962512PL, expiry date 11/2028; 1032504EN, expiry date 03/2028; 2962512EN, expiry date 11/2028
The withdrawn products are completely safe and absolutely non-toxic. The withdrawal is purely precautionary and results solely from formal and regulatory reasons. We identified a technological non-compliance in a raw material supplied by our partner, in which irradiation was detected.
Irradiation sterilization, to which an ingredient of the above-mentioned products was subjected, is commonly used in the food industry to ensure optimal microbiological purity. The process itself guarantees safe consumption.
According to Directives 1999/2/EC and 1999/3/EC, only herbs, spices, and dried vegetables may be irradiated within the European Union. Mushrooms and mushroom extracts are not included on the list of products approved for irradiation sterilization. Under the applicable regulations, the production method used means that this raw material does not meet the criteria for market authorization.
Consumption of the standard daily serving of powder from the listed batches poses no health risk whatsoever and does not cause side effects, allergic reactions, or poisoning. These products also do not pose any risk to sensitive groups such as pregnant women, seniors, or children.
Although the current situation does not involve any health risk, at Osavi we are committed to full transparency and responsibility for our products. Therefore, we have decided, on our own initiative, to withdraw the formally non-compliant batches from the market.
How can I return a product from the withdrawn batch?
If you own a product from the batches listed above, please arrange a return or exchange by contacting us via email at: [email protected]
Are the withdrawn products safe for health?
Yes. The products are 100% safe. The withdrawal is not due to the product being harmful, toxic, or contaminated. The irradiation sterilization process applied to the raw materials is commonly used in the food industry (for example, for spices or herbs) to ensure optimal microbiological purity. The process itself guarantees safe consumption.
What is irradiation sterilization? Is the product radioactive?
The product is not radioactive. Irradiation (ionizing) sterilization is a process in which energy passes through the product in order to eliminate bacteria, mold, and microorganisms (similar to pasteurization, but using ionizing energy instead of heat). The energy passes through the product, sterilizes it, and then disappears. No radiation remains in the product.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused. However, we would like to emphasize that your safety and trust in our brand always come first. For this reason, we are responding in a fully responsible and transparent manner, in accordance with our quality control procedures.
We remain at your full disposal.
The Osavi Team.
