The Chief Sanitary Inspectorate has published a warning regarding wholemeal rye flour. “You should not consume the batch of product indicated in the message,” it was written. This is another similar announcement recently.
“As a result of the explanatory proceedings of the State Sanitary Inspectorate, it was established that the same batch of raw material from which whole-grain rye flour type 2000 was produced (covered by the public warning of November 6, 2024) also produced whole-grain rye flour type 720” – reported GIS in Wednesday's announcement.
As reported by GIS, the manufacturer of Radix-Bis decided to withdraw a specific batch of wholemeal rye flour type 720 as potentially contaminated with ochratoxin A. It was explained that ochratoxin A is a toxin produced by fungi of the Aspergillus and Penicillium species, which has a harmful effect on human health.
