The Food and Drug Administration has announced an active recall on a number of apple juice products found to have elevated levels of arsenic sold by major retailers including Walmart and Aldi. Arsenic can be extremely toxic, and exposure to high levels can lead to poisoning.

The latest recall expands one issued by Walmart in August, and now involves 133,500 cases of various brands produced by manufacturer Refresco Beverages. The giant retailer says it has removed the products from its shelves.

What to do if you have recalled apple juice products

The FDA advises consumers who have any of the recalled products to throw it away immediately or return it to where they bought it and ask for a refund. The agency says the affected apple juice contains “inorganic arsenic above action level set in guidance to industry.”

This recall is in process, and consumers will be informed if more products will be added to the list in the immediate future.
