The Food Safety Authority of Ireland has issued a product recall for a soya drink, which has been found to contain high levels of iodine.
The Japanese manufactured Bonsoy drink is sold in one litre containers, mainly through health stores. The FSAI says it is contacting distributors and suppliers to ensure the product is withdrawn from sale.
The increased iodine levels detected in the drink could affect the function of the thyroid gland and may cause some people to feel unwell. Any consumers who have purchased the product are being advised to dispose of it or return it to the shop where they bought it.
The FSAI says that anyone who has already consumed the drink and is feeling unwell should seek medical advice. Bonsoy has already been recalled by the food safety authorities in Australia and New Zealand.
