Recall Issued For Natural Colic Remedy

(AP) SACRAMENTO California health officials are warning parents not to give their children a liquid herbal supplement that is marketed as a remedy for colic and teething pain because several bottles tested positive for a parasite that may have a sickened a six-week-old infant in Minnesota.

Officials say lab tests confirmed the presence of Cryptosporidium, a parasite that can cause diarrhea and intestinal infections, in unopened bottles of apple-flavored Baby's Bliss Gripe Water.

The Minnesota baby so far is the only person with a reported illness possibly linked to the product. It is sold in four-ounce bottles and has an expiration date of October 2008.

Officials advise consumers to discard any of the product they have and to consult a pediatrician if it was consumed by a child who seems sick.
