Israeli Health Ministry Warns Against Illegal GATRY Khat Leaf Drink Consumption
The Israeli Ministry of Health has issued a public warning against consuming the beverage GATRY, which is made from khat leaves and fruits. The ministry's investigation revealed that GATRY is produced in violation of Israeli food laws, with an unknown source and manufacturer. According to Israeli regulations, khat leaves are only permitted for traditional use in their natural form, and not as an ingredient in processed drinks. The warning applies to all sizes and expiration dates of the GATRY drink currently marketed. The Health Ministry advised consumers to purchase food products only from recognized and authorized distributors to ensure safety.
