Recalled microdosing product linked to death in North Dakota, 48 illnesses nationwide • Daily Montanan
A person in North Dakota died after consuming recalled microdosing candies that are linked to illnesses across the country, the North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services said Wednesday.
The death is under investigation by state agencies, the poison control center and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The FDA published a recall on June 28 of some Prophet Premium Blends Diamond Shruumz products. The products include microdosing chocolate bars, infused cones and micro-dose and mega-dose/extreme gummies.
The products are marketed as containing a proprietary blend of mushrooms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
As of July 1, 48 illnesses, including 27 hospitalizations, have been reported in 24 states, according to the CDC. North Dakota is the only state where a death is being investigated, the agency said. One person has been reported getting sick, according to the CDC.
North Dakota officials are warning the public because the recalled products could still be available for sale online, in stores that sell hemp-derived products, or in smoke and vape shops, said Michelle Dethloff, director of the infectious diseases and epidemiology unit.
The products are not illegal in North Dakota but they are not licensed or regulated by the state, Dethloff said.
Retail locations in Montana, including two places in Yellowstone County, were selling the products, and they’re available online.
State officials would not provide specifics about when or where in North Dakota the death occurred or the person’s age, citing privacy reasons. The person who died is an adult, Dethloff said. The exact cause of death remains under investigation.
The cases of illness reported nationwide have been severe, Dethloff said. Symptoms reported include seizures, loss of consciousness, confusion, sleepiness, abnormal heart rates, high or low blood pressure, nausea and vomiting.
People who suspect poisoning can call the Poison Center at 800-222-1222.

North Dakota scores 21 points in 4th quarter, beats Tennessee Tech 31-6 in FCS playoffs
COOKEVILLE, Tennessee (KNFL/KFGO/AP) — Colton Brunell, Gaven Ziebarth and Charles Langama each had a touchdown run in the final quarter for North Dakota in a 31-6 win over No. 13 seed Tennessee Tech on Saturday in the first round of the FCS playoffs.
North Dakota will play at No. 4 seed Tarleton State in the second round game on Saturday.
Jerry Kaminski found Deng Deng in the end zone off a 21-yard pass in the second quarter to make it 10-0 for North Dakota (8-5). Later in the second half, Kaminski took a late hit to the helmet which kept him sidelined for the rest of the game. Kaminski finished with nine completions for 98 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
North Dakota relied heavily on their run game after Kaminski’s injury. In the fourth quarter, Brunell scored on an 8-yard run, Ziebarth punched it in from three yards out, and Langama scored his first career touchdown off an 18-yard sprint up the middle.
North Dakota’s defense came up big multiple times, accounting for six sacks, four fumble recoveries, two interceptions and shut out Tennessee Tech for three quarters.
Tennessee Tech’s Kekoa Visperas completed 30 of 51 passes for 278 yards and threw one touchdown — a 45-yarder to Brian Courtney in the third quarter. The Golden Eagles finish their season 11-2.
