EDIT: Apparently the recall is merely a formality and not due to a health hazard.

Since many of you are talking about Baluoke, figured I'd post this since I came across it while searching. Not sure what the cause for the recall was. Click

Thanks for posting this information. The bottle of Boluoke I have is the lot that is being recalled.

Well, I figured that since I get my Boluoke from the same place as pab, then mine must be bad too...........YEP!!!

Thanks for the heads up!!!

Question them your self and see if you get the same answer...

They say it has to do with Canada fighting them because they didnt meet a application deadline of some form hence the reason why the explanation for the recall is so vague.

The lady from RNA assured me there have been no ill health effects linked to the reason of this recall and that they have many physicians calling in and have not opted to quit using the product due to the nature of the situation...

Ah. Well thats good news. [Smile]
