NAFDAC Raises Alarm Over the Consumption of Unsafe Nestle Maggi Noodles




The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) have called the attention of the general public to some Maggi noodle produced by Nestle India, which have been confirmed to contain excess lead and were therefore deemed unsafe and hazardous for human consumption. 

The information, which was published on NAFDAC's website at the weekend, stated that Nestle has recalled its Maggi instant noodles from stores across India following the report by the Indian Food Safety Regulators of probable lead contamination.It is established that Lead exposure causes an estimated 143,000 deaths a year worldwide.

In view of the potential safety concerns on consumption of the lead contaminated Maggi instant noodles, NAFDAC warns that Maggi instant noodles produced by Nestle India should not be consumed.

Hence, all stores, wholesalers, retailers and consumers should be proactive in ensuring that such products are brought to NAFDAC if they come across any, and under no circumstances should such products be sold or purchased.
