Announcement

Ultimate Nutrition Inc. of Farmington, CT, is recalling its dietary supplement, Amino Gold, because they may contain undeclared milk in the form of hydrolyzed whey protein. People who have allergies to milk run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

The recalled Amino Gold was distributed nationwide through distributors, stores, and websites. The affected product is packaged in purple bottles with a black cap.
