A multistate outbreak of Salmonella infections has been linked to Live It Up Super Greens supplement powders, according to a new food safety alert from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC reports that 45 people in 21 states have become ill with the same strain of Salmonella. Twelve individuals have been hospitalized, but no deaths have occurred.
Individuals affected by this outbreak reported consuming Live It Up Super Greens supplement powder. On January 14, 2026, the company informed the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that it would begin a voluntary recall of these products. Consumers are advised not to eat any recalled Live It Up Super Greens supplement powders and should either dispose of them or contact the company regarding returns.
The CDC recommends washing items and surfaces that may have come into contact with the recalled product using hot soapy water or a dishwasher. Anyone experiencing severe symptoms of Salmonella is encouraged to seek medical attention.
Businesses are also urged not to sell or serve any recalled Live It Up Super Greens supplement powders. Items and surfaces potentially exposed to these products should be washed and sanitized.
Salmonella infection typically causes diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps within six hours to six days after exposure. Most people recover within four to seven days without treatment; however, some cases can be severe enough to require hospitalization. Young children, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems face a higher risk of serious illness.
For further information about cases in specific states, individuals are directed to contact their state health department. Media inquiries can be submitted through the CDC's Request for Comment form.
