SCI-MX Nutrition is part of a bigger family. We are proud to be a division within the Samworth Brothers Group.

We work with more scientific consultants and evaluate scientific to bring you the very best sports nutrition formulas. The Food Standards Agency says Tesco is recalling its own-brand 'free from' onion rings, cheese-flavour balls, and bacon rashers because they contain gluten, which is not mentioned on the label. "This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with coeliac disease, and/or an allergy or intolerance to gluten," says the notice. Sci-Mx is owned by consumer products group Supreme, which acquired the sports nutrition and supplements brand from Samworth Brothers in 2021. In this case, the exceptionally high levels of caffeine could mean the consequences are even more severe and perhaps even fatal.” As a precautionary measure, Home Bargains took immediate action by removing all of the strawberry flavoured product from sale and implementing preventive measures across its tills to ensure their withdrawal. This action was followed by product recall posters being displayed in all stores.

Action taken by the company

The Food Standards Agency said that 10g of caffeine is lethal to most individuals – doses as low as 3g can be deadly for those with caffeine sensitivity.

The affected product comes in 1.5 kg bags and has a batch code of W110429. Its best before date is March 2025.
