Echinacea Immune Support teabags, sold nationwide and initially withdrawn from shelves in March by their manufacturer, East West Tea, have now had their affected lot numbers made public on the FDA's website.

This type of recall, classified as Class III, indicates that using these teabags won't likely result in any negative health outcomes.

Yogi has yet to respond to our inquiry regarding the matter.
