Live it Up Super Greens Recall Lawsuit | Why Not Natural Pure Organic Salmonella Class Action 2026
The product recall and consumer protection lawyers at The Lyon Firm are investigating a nationwide health emergency following the contamination of Why Not Natural Pure Organic Moringa Green Superfood and Live it Up Super Greens dietary supplements with dangerous salmonella bacteria.
Federal health authorities have confirmed 65 illnesses across 28 states, resulting in 14 hospitalizations. The salmonella outbreak, which began in August 2025, has prompted extensive recalls affecting thousands of consumers who trusted these products for their daily nutritional needs.
You may qualify for compensation if you bought the Why Not Natural or Live it Up Super Greens dietary supplement powder anytime during the last 18 months. It is not necessary that you became ill to qualify to file a claim. Contact our attorneys to discuss more.
Who Qualifies as a Potential Plaintiff in a Class Action Lawsuit?
Don’t assume you need a medical diagnosis or to have fallen ill to participate. Contact our product liability attorneys today to discuss your purchase records. If you purchased any Live it Up Super Greens product with expiration dates between August 2026 and January 2028, you may qualify as a plaintiff in emerging class action litigation.
Consumers Who Purchased These Recalled Products:
- Why Not Natural Pure Organic Moringa Green Superfood capsules with expiration date 07/2028 have been recalled.
- All Live it Up-brand Super Greens dietary supplement powder, including the original and wild berry flavors, with expiration dates from 08/2026 to 01/2028 have been recalled.
The contaminated supplements were distributed nationwide through major retail platforms including Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and the company’s direct website. This widespread distribution has created a potentially massive pool of affected consumers who may have legal grounds for pursuing compensation through class action litigation.
Individuals Who Suffered Illness
Consumers who developed salmonella infections after consuming these products represent the most critical plaintiff category. Medical documentation showing salmonella diagnosis, particularly strains matching the outbreak (Salmonella Typhimurium or Salmonella Newport), strengthens legal claims significantly. Symptoms typically manifest within 12 to 72 hours of consumption and include severe diarrhea, fever, abdominal cramping, nausea, and vomiting.
If you experienced these symptoms after using Live it Up Super Greens or Why Not Natural Pure Organic Moringa Green Superfood capsules, contact The Lyon Firm immediately for a free case evaluation.
Economic Loss Plaintiffs
Not every plaintiff must prove physical illness. Consumers who purchased these products suffered economic harm regardless of whether they consumed the contaminated supplements. Legal theories supporting economic loss claims include:
- Breach of warranty (products were not safe for consumption as advertised)
- Unjust enrichment (companies profited from defective products)
- Fraudulent misrepresentation (products marketed as safe and beneficial)
- Negligent manufacturing and quality control failures
Expanding Scope: Multiple Defendant Liability
The FDA investigation revealed critical supply chain failures extending beyond Superfoods, Inc. (doing business as Live it Up). A common manufacturer supplied contaminated moringa leaf powder to multiple brands, creating joint liability scenarios.
Art Monkey LLC, operating as Why Not Natural, represents another defendant in this expanding litigation landscape. Their Houston-based operation distributed contaminated capsules containing the same tainted moringa powder, creating parallel liability alongside the Live it Up products.
Types of Compensation Available to Class Action Plaintiffs
You Don’t Need a Salmonella Diagnosis to Have Valid Claims
Many consumers mistakenly believe they must prove physical illness to participate in class action litigation. The reality is quite different. If you purchased Live it Up Super Greens or Why Not Natural moringa products during the affected timeframe, you suffered economic harm regardless of whether you consumed the contaminated supplements or developed symptoms.
Consumer protection class actions recognize a fundamental principle: buyers deserve safe products that meet advertised standards. When you purchased these dietary supplements, you paid premium prices for products marketed as organic superfoods promoting health and wellness. Instead, you received potentially dangerous items contaminated with salmonella bacteria. This gap between promise and delivery creates actionable legal claims.
Legal Foundations Supporting Economic Recovery
Multiple legal theories support purchase price reimbursement independent of physical injury claims. Breach of express warranty occurs when products fail to meet explicit promises made in marketing materials. Live it Up advertised their Super Greens as beneficial dietary supplements, creating warranties that products would be safe and fit for consumption. Salmonella contamination fundamentally breached these promises.
Who Qualifies for Purchase Price Recovery
You may qualify even if you:
- Purchased products but never consumed them
- Discarded products immediately upon learning of the recall
- Gave products as gifts to family or friends
- Still possess unopened contaminated containers
- Consumed products without developing noticeable illness
- Bought products through subscription services
Medical Expense Recovery
Plaintiffs can also seek reimbursement for all medical costs related to any salmonella treatment including:
- Emergency room visits and hospitalization
- Diagnostic testing and laboratory fees
- Prescription medications and treatments
- Follow-up care and ongoing monitoring
- Future medical expenses for chronic complications
Some salmonella victims develop reactive arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, or other long-term conditions requiring ongoing medical management. These future expenses deserve compensation consideration.
Critical Steps for Potential Plaintiffs
Preserve Evidence Immediately
Do not discard contaminated products. Maintain all packaging, containers, and remaining powder in sealed bags. These materials provide crucial evidence for laboratory analysis and lot code verification. Photograph all product labels showing lot numbers, expiration dates, and UPC codes.
Document Your Medical Journey
Obtain copies of all medical records documenting salmonella diagnosis or gastrointestinal symptoms occurring after product consumption. Laboratory test results confirming salmonella strains matching the outbreak strengthen causation arguments considerably.
Maintain Purchase Documentation
Gather all receipts, order confirmations, credit card statements, and email confirmations proving product purchase. Online transaction records from Amazon, eBay, or other platforms provide powerful evidence supporting class membership.
Avoid Company Settlement Offers
Manufacturers may offer limited refunds attempting to resolve claims individually. Accepting these minimal settlements often requires releasing all legal claims, eliminating your ability to pursue full compensation through class action litigation. Consult our experienced product liability attorneys before accepting any company offers.
Contact The Lyon Firm before engaging with company representatives about settlements or refunds.
Why Immediate Legal Action Matters
Statutes of limitation restrict the timeframe for filing product liability claims. These deadlines vary by state, typically ranging from one to four years from the date of injury or discovery. Delayed action risks forfeiting your legal rights entirely.
Class action certification requires demonstrating numerous similarly situated plaintiffs. Early participation strengthens class formation and increases the likelihood of favorable settlement negotiations or verdicts. Lead plaintiffs often receive additional compensation awards recognizing their participation in case development.
The expanding nature of this recall creates urgency. As investigators identify additional contaminated products and distribution channels, evidence preservation becomes increasingly critical.
What products are included in the Live it Up Super Greens recall?
The recall includes all Live it Up Super Greens (original and wild berry flavors) with expiration dates from 08/2026 to 01/2028 and lot codes beginning with “A” or “3”. Why Not Natural Pure Organic Moringa capsules (lot A25G051, exp. 07/2028) are also recalled.
How much compensation can I receive from the Live it Up class action lawsuit?
Compensation varies based on your damages. Medical expense cases may recover thousands for hospitalization, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Purchase price claims typically recover 1-3x the product cost plus additional damages.
Do I need to be sick to join the Live it Up Super Greens lawsuit?
No. You can participate in purchase price reimbursement class actions even without illness. If you bought recalled products, you suffered economic harm and may qualify for compensation.
