This page announces Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's implementation of import food inspection orders on Egyptian calendula (Calendula officinalis) and its processed products. Monitoring tests detected chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate pesticide, exceeding safety standards. Two violations were confirmed, with all products disposed of. Chlorpyrifos is an insecticide with established acceptable daily intake levels. Regular consumption at normal amounts poses no health risks.
