Multiple brands of canned tuna were recalled earlier this month, including Genova. The recalled six-pack of Genova's 7-ounce Yellowfish Tuna in Olive Oil was sold at Costco warehouses in Florida and Georgia. The tuna has a UPC of 4800063267 and one of the following best-by dates: 1/21/2028, 1/23/2028 or 1/27/2028.
Check your pantry, and if you have the recalled canned tuna on hand, dispose of it or return it for a refund. The tuna is being recalled due to a manufacturing defect that may compromise the products' seal. This can allow bacteria like Clostridium botulinum to enter and grow inside the can, which can cause botulism, a foodborne illness.
Symptoms of botulism may include bloating, constipation, muscle weakness, double vision, dizziness, trouble speaking or swallowing and difficulty breathing. Seek medical attention if you are experiencing these signs after eating the recalled tuna.

Costco recalled their Kirkland Signature Severe Cold & Flu Plus Congestion tablets sold at Midwest and Southeast warehouse locations. This is due to a possible foreign matter contamination, however it is unclear on what the specifics of this contamination are.
The impacted packages have a printed lot code of P140082. While the recalled medicine was only sold between October 30 and November 30, 2024, it is a shelf-stable product and may still be in consumers' cabinets. Be sure to check your cold and flu medicine for the recalled code, and return to your local Costco if it matches. For questions about this recall, call 1-800-426-9391 or email complaints-inquiries@lnkintl.com.
Over one million coolers sold at Costco, Dick's Sporting Goods, Target and other retailers nationwide were recently recalled. The coolers affected are the Igloo 90-quart Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers sold in various colors. The dates of manufacture printed on the bottom of the cooler range from 08/2018 through 12/2023, and the coolers were sold from January 2019 through January 2025.
This recall follows 12 reports of injuries from the tow handles pinching fingertips against the cooler. This has resulted in fingertip amputations, bone fractures and lacerations. If you have one of the recalled coolers, contact Igloo to request a repair kit. You can request a kit by calling Igloo toll-free at 888-943-5182 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST Monday through Friday or emailing igloo90qt@sedgwick.com.

LG-branded ovens sold at Costco as well as Best Buy, The Home Depot, Lowe's and other appliance stores are recalled due to a fire hazard. The ovens impacted by this recall contain a Slide-In and Freestanding Electric Range and were sold from 2015 through January 2025.
The recalled ovens contain one of the following model numbers printed inside the oven's door or storage drawer: LDE4411ST, LDE4413ST, LDE4413BD, LSE4611ST, LSE4611BD, LSE4613ST, LSE4613BD, LSEL6337D, LSEL6337F, LSEL6331F, LSEL6333F, LSEL6333D, LSEL6335D, LSEL6335F, LTE4815BM, LTE4815BD, LTE4815ST, LRE4215ST or LTEL7337F.
This recall follows about 86 reports of accidental contact of the knobs by humans or pets that caused unintentional activation. This poses a fire hazard and has resulted in property damage, injuries and animal deaths. Check your oven, and if it matches the recall information, contact the company for a free warning sticker and instructions on how to use the control lock on your oven range. Do this by contacting LG at 800-399-3265 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or emailing lgrange.recall@lge.com.
In December, Costco recalled a variety pack of protein bars, but consumers may still have them on hand. The NuGo protein bars being recalled come in an 18-count variety pack and contain two flavors: Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip and Dark Chocolate Pretzel.
They were sold from October 2 through November 20, 2024, at Costco locations in the following states: Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Vermont. However, they have best-by dates of December 22 or December 23, 2025, so they could still be in customers' kitchens.
Check your snack drawer, as these recalled protein bars may contain dairy, even though the bars are marketed to be vegan. Those with dairy intolerance or allergies may experience a reaction after consuming one of these protein bars. In serious cases, this can include anaphylaxis, causing symptoms like hives, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, tightness of the throat or cardiac arrest. Call 911 immediately if you are showing signs of anaphylactic shock.

P. East Trading Corp recalls Salted Smoked Split Herring

(WIVT/WBGH) – A lack of disembowelment has led to the recall of a fish product. P. East Trading Corp. of the Bronx recalled Salted Smoked Split Herring container code Lot1PRC5073 because the product was found to be not eviscerated. The recalled herring was distributed in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut in 18-pound wooden boxes. The herring was sampled by a New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets Food Inspector, and subsequent analysis of the product confirmed the herring was not properly eviscerated before processing. The sale of uneviscerated fish is prohibited under New York State Agriculture and Markets regulations. This is because Clostridium botulinum spores are more likely to be concentrated in the viscera than in any other portion of the fish. Uneviscerated fish have been linked to outbreaks of botulism poisoning. Symptoms of botulism include dizziness, blurred or double vision, and trouble with speaking or swallowing. Difficulty in breathing, weakness of other muscles, abdominal distension, and constipation may also be common symptoms. People experiencing these problems should seek immediate medical attention. No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this recall. Consumers who have purchased Salted Smoked Split Herring are advised not to eat it and should return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Target Recall Update as Consumers Told to Immediately Stop Using Products

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Target has warned customers to stop using various products they purchased from the retailer due to safety concerns. The products were manufactured by various companies but sold in Target stores nationwide or on its website. Some of the products include a potentially dangerous pressure cooker lid that could cause burns and a cooler that poses a "fingertip amputation" risk. Newsweek reached out to Target via email for comment. Why It Matters Recalls are issued if there are concerns that a product may be harmful in some way, such as when testing reveals that products are infected with potentially deadly bacteria, or amid fears that foods could be contaminated with a foreign object from the manufacturing process. Consumers have various rights when an item they've purchased is hit by a recall, with food recalls typically offering full refunds. A Target store in Jersey City, New Jersey, as seen on May 17, 2025.

Various items were pulled from shelves back in March, ranging from fears that teething sticks could be a choking hazard to concerns about the particular batteries in a microphone potentially overheating and igniting. The most recent news from the retail chain reveals that three product recalls have been issued since May, with two recalls occurring last month and one in the first week of June: BowFlex 552 Adjustable Dumbbells and BowFlex 1090 Adjustable Dumbbells, recalled on June 5 The exercise weights were sold in stores and online. Shoppers were told that they should "immediately stop using [them]," with the retailer warning: "The weight plates can dislodge from the handle during use, posing an impact hazard." Customers should contact Johnson Health Tech Trading or BowFlex Inc. to request a refund and return the items, Target said. Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers, recalled on May 8 This cooler, which is set on wheels with a pull-handle, has been recalled because the "tow handle can pinch consumers' fingertips against the cooler, posing fingertip amputation and crushing hazards." Customers who bought the coolers were urged to "contact Igloo for a free replacement handle." SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers, recalled on May 1 Target customers were warned to "immediately stop using the product's pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid. Consumers can continue to use the product's air frying and other functions." The retailers said the reason for the lid replacement is due to a fault with the existing pressure cooker lid, which "can be opened during use, causing hot contents to escape, posing a risk of burn injuries to consumers." What People Are Saying Target, in a statement on its website: "At Target, our purpose is to help all families discover the joy of everyday life. It is who we are, how we work, and what we value. Our guests, your safety, is our highest priority. For this reason, we maintain a comprehensive list of our recalled products." What Happens Next Customers should follow the relevant advice provided by Target for each product recall and continue to check Target's website for the most up-to-date recall notices.

Gut Health and MG Management

When I was first diagnosed with myasthenia gravis (MG), I focused on the obvious: My immune system. I assumed that if I could manage that, everything else would fall into place. Gut health was sort of on my radar. I ate healthy, avoided processed foods, and believed what you put in your body affects how you feel. I even added fermented foods here and there, mostly because they were trending and sounded like a good idea. But I hadn't looked much further. I didn't understand just how central your gut is when it comes to managing autoimmune conditions like MG. Around 70% of your immune system lives in your gut. I came across that fact before, but it never hit home until I had food reactions and strange flares that didn't fit the usual MG pattern. I thought my gut was fine. No IBS diagnosis, no ongoing digestive drama. Just bloating I chalked up to eating too quickly or being stressed. But I started reacting to foods that'd never been a problem. My energy plummeted. Symptoms I'd learned to manage started slipping out of control, and I couldn't pinpoint why. Something wasn't right. I decided to get a comprehensive gut test through Genova. At the time, I was pescatarian and still relatively unaware of how deep the gut-autoimmune connection is. My results were eye-opening. Dysbiosis. Low microbial diversity. Overgrowth of opportunistic bacteria. Low secretory IgA. Impaired short-chain fatty acid production. Sluggish digestion. It was clear my gut was underperforming, and had been for a while. Suddenly, everything clicked. If your gut is inflamed or overrun with the wrong bacteria, your immune system will be on high alert. That background inflammation adds fuel to the fire of an autoimmune condition like MG. Once I understood what was going on, I took action. First through food. I was already eating a whole food diet, but I fine-tuned it. I eliminated gluten, dairy, seed oils, and refined sugar. I focused on nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory meals. I reintroduced grass-fed beef, offal, and other quality animal proteins. I kept my meals simple, intentional, and supportive. That alone made a difference. Next, I addressed my microbial imbalance. I used oregano oil capsules and other natural antimicrobials, along with binders like G.I. Detox to help clear out toxins. I introduced supplements like calcium-D-glucarate, liposomal glutathione, and milk thistle tea to support detox pathways. I added digestive enzymes, spore-based probiotics, and made a real effort to eat slowly, chew properly, and stay calm while eating. I hadn't realized how much stress was affecting my digestion until I worked on reducing it. Improvements were gradual but undeniable. My bloating reduced. Food reactions became less dramatic. MG flares became less frequent and more manageable. I felt clearer mentally, and more stable emotionally. My energy improved and I began to feel like myself again. It wasn't a magic fix, but it was a fundamental shift. Gut health was no longer just a vague wellness term – it became a key part of taking care of myself every day. Looking back, I wish I'd understood the gut-autoimmune connection earlier. MG is complex, and no single approach works for everyone. But, for me, gut health is a cornerstone. If you live with MG and haven't explored what's happening in your gut, I encourage you to look into it. Not just guessing, but testing. It gave me clarity, direction, and a plan that actually helped. So much of what affects us happens behind the scenes. But once you uncover those hidden pieces, it's amazing how much more sense your symptoms can make. And how much more empowered you feel to do something about them.
