Wisconsinites Urged Not to Eat Diamond Shruumz-brand Products
Chocolate bars, cones, and gummies containing psychoactive compounds may cause serious illness
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) and federal partners at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are investigating reports of severe illnesses associated with Diamond Shruumz-brand chocolate bars, cones, and gummies. These products contain a proprietary blend of mushrooms and are available for purchase online and at retailers nationwide.
“Products containing psychoactive compounds such as cannabinoids or mushroom extracts are increasing in availability,” said DHS Chief Medical Officer and State Epidemiologist for the Bureau of Environmental and Occupational Health Sheryl Bedno. “The Diamond Shruumz-brand products may contain harmful and undisclosed ingredients that can cause serious illness when eaten and we ask Wisconsinites who have purchased these products not to consume them.”
