Recall of Bonsoy Soy Milk in Singapore

From: AVA

The Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has issued an alert on the recall of a soy milk product, Bonsoy Soy Milk (1 Litre). This is due to the presence of unusually high levels of iodine in this product.

The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) has conducted tests on the Bonsoy soy milk products that have been imported into Singapore and confirmed similarly high levels of iodine in these products. AVA has therefore required the importer and retailers to recall the implicated product from the market.



Excessive consumption of high levels of iodine may affect the thyroid gland, leading to thyroid disorders. It is strongly advised that individuals who have consumed the above product and feel unwell should seek medical attention immediately. All pregnant women who have consumed BonSoy Soy Milk should inform their obstetrician so that the appropriate tests can be conducted for their babies at birth.
