"Microdosing" chocolate bars designed to give consumers "peace of mind" have sent more and more people to hospitals, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently reported.

The FDA published an initial advisory message about Diamond Shruumz, a company that produces "microdosing" chocolate bars and gummies, on June 7. At the time, six people who had consumed the products were hospitalized.

The FDA now reports that at least 10 people have been hospitalized after eating the products. An additional two people sought medical care but were not hospitalized.

"Do not eat, sell, or serve Diamond Shruumz-Brand Microdosing Chocolate Bars," the FDA’s site warns.

"[The] FDA is working to determine the cause of these illnesses and is considering the appropriate next steps," the statement added. "More information will be provided as it becomes available."

The products are distributed nationally. The FDA’s website said hospitalizations were reported in Alabama, Kentucky, Missouri, Nevada, South Carolina and Pennsylvania. Four hospitalizations were recorded in Arizona, and two were reported in Indiana.

The consumers who ate the "microdosing" products experienced "severe" symptoms, officials reported.
