A person in North Dakota has died after consuming recalled microdosing candies, prompting an investigation by state agencies, the poison control center, and the FDA. The FDA issued a recall of some Prophet Premium Blends Diamond Shruumz products on June 28, which are marketed as containing a proprietary blend of mushrooms. These products have been linked to 48 illnesses, including 27 hospitalizations, in 24 states as of July 1. North Dakota is the only state investigating a death related to the consumption of these candies. The state officials are warning the public as the recalled products could still be available for sale online, in stores that sell hemp-derived products, or in smoke and vape shops. While the products are not illegal, they are not licensed or regulated by the state. The specific details regarding the death in North Dakota, such as where and when it occurred or the age of the person, are being withheld for privacy reasons. However, it has been confirmed that the individual who passed away was an adult. The exact cause of death is still being investigated by authorities. If individuals have purchased these recalled candies, it is advised they cease consumption immediately and seek guidance from health officials.
