Dehradun, May 29 (IBNS) Actor Madhuri Dixit has been served with a notice for endorsing Maggi noodles, which is under scrutiny in Uttar Pradesh for high content of lead.

Reports said the notice was issued by the  Food and Drug Administration in Uttarakhand, asking Dixit to respond within 15 days on an ad that talked about the nutrition value of Maggi noodles.

Madhuri has been asked to explain the basis of her claims in the ad.
 
Earlier this month, the Food Safety and Drug Administration in Uttar Pradesh claimed that Maggi noodles' samples contained Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG) and high amounts of lead, more than the permissible limits that could be detrimental to one's body. 

Nestle India, manufacturers of the product, has been forced the withdraw Maggi from Uttar Pradesh market, though the company denied theuse of MSG in its product.
