What happened?
In a new entry for “food recalls this week,” Supplement Manufacturing Partners, Inc. has issued a voluntary recall of its Dorado Nutrition brand Spermidine Maximum Strength 10mg Vegetable Capsules due to—brace yourself—undeclared wheat.
The recall was initiated on April 14, 2025, after internal testing uncovered that wheat had managed to sneak into the product without an invite (or a label warning). The company found the issue during a routine quality check and quickly pulled the affected batches from the shelves (and URLs).
The supplement was sold:
- Online on Amazon from 05/22/2024 to 04/04/2025
- In Germany under the name Spermidin 60 Kapseln 38g by Deep Green GmbH (aka Space Garden)
Product details:
Brand | Product | Size | UPC / Lot Number | Best By | Issue |
Dorado Nutrition | Spermidine Maximum Strength 10mg | 120 capsules | 12792402-44 / 12792402-44J | 04/2026 | Undeclared wheat |
Space Garden (DE) | Spermidin 60 Kapseln 38g | 60 capsules | Not specified | Unknown | Undeclared wheat |
What caused the issue?
This recall came down to a classic supplement no-no: a labeling mix-up with real consequences. During internal testing, Supplement Manufacturing Partners, Inc. discovered that some batches of Dorado Nutrition Spermidine 10mg Capsules contained wheat—but nowhere on the label did it say so.
That’s a big deal. Because for many people, wheat isn’t just an ingredient—it’s a potential health hazard.
The danger of undeclared wheat
Wheat is one of the top 9 major food allergens identified by the FDA. Not listing it can put consumers at risk for severe allergic reactions, especially for those with:
- Wheat allergies
- Celiac disease
- Non-celiac gluten sensitivity
Even trace amounts of wheat in a product that claims to be free of it can cause dangerous consequences.
Health risks & symptoms
When wheat sneaks into a supplement unexpectedly, the consequences can be serious. Here’s what consumers might experience if they unknowingly consume a contaminated product:
Who’s at Risk?
- People with wheat allergies
- Individuals with Celiac disease
- Those managing gluten-free diets
- Anyone with a sensitivity or autoimmune disorder
Potential symptoms:
- Skin reactions: rash, hives, swelling
- Digestive upset: nausea, vomiting, bloating, diarrhea
- Respiratory issues: wheezing, shortness of breath, nasal congestion
- Severe allergic reaction: anaphylaxis (life-threatening)
So far, no illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported—but the potential is real, which is why this recall matters.
10 common questions you might have
1. I’ve been taking this supplement—should I stop immediately?
Yes. If you have a wheat allergy, Celiac disease, or are on a gluten-free diet, stop using it and return it for a refund.
2. How do I know if my bottle is part of the recall?
Check the bottom of the bottle for Lot Numbers 12792402-44 or 12792402-44J and a Best By date of 04/2026.
3. What should I do if I’ve already taken some and feel fine?
If you don’t have a wheat allergy or gluten sensitivity, you’re likely fine. If you do, monitor for symptoms and consult a doctor if anything seems off.
4. Can I keep taking it if I don’t have a wheat allergy?
The product is being recalled for safety reasons. Even if you’re not allergic, it’s best to stop using it.
5. Was this sold only in the U.S.?
Nope—it was also sold in Germany under the Space Garden brand as “Spermidin 60 Kapseln 38g.”
6. How did this happen in the first place?
A labeling oversight—wheat ended up in the formula, but the label didn’t mention it. The manufacturer found the issue during product testing.
7. Is this a one-time issue or a recurring problem with the brand?
As of now, this is an isolated incident for Dorado Nutrition. However, similar allergen-related recalls are fairly common industry-wide.
8. What does undeclared wheat mean exactly?
It means wheat was present in the product, but not listed on the label—so consumers wouldn’t know to avoid it.
9. Will I get my money back?
Yes. You can return the product to where you purchased it (including Amazon) for a full refund.
