Is this product from China? Is it tested for Mercury & other Heavy metals?

Yes, it is from China and yes it is tested for several heavy metals. I contacted the company and they sent their certificate of analysis of their Spirulina. I'll try to upload the attachment.

I do not know.Perhaps the distributor could tell.It says what it excludes ,but also disclaims FDA approval since it is not sold as a drug or advocated to perform some specific cure.At some point ,if you believe what is written, you must trust to judgement and decide.Take responsibility for yourself.

as far as I can tell from using spirulina before it is from China as it is very dark. California product is a very light green. As far as the testing I can't be sure. Something the company would have to answer.

No it is not! It is chromium.. . . . . .Zoom in on the product information on the left and it will show the ingredients on the side of the bottle! I would tell you to buy another brand, this is raw form and has made a lot of people ill since I purchase it. They state the raw form means it is the best. . . . . .I believe it came from China or who know where and brought here and then manufactured in the USA. Who knows whats in it. . . . .. .try a better brand so you don't get sick! Good luck Michelle, hope I was helpful!

The ingredients listed on the bottle states "100% Pure Magnesium Chloride Brine from the Ancient Zechstein Seabed in the Netherlands." We have been using this oil for a while and feel fine...NO symptoms of mercury poisoning whatsoever.

I was surprised by your question and looked all over my double boiler for the "made in China" mark, but don't see it anywhere. I also googled it (as I'm sure you did as well) and can't find anything about lead content. So "no", I have no idea if it contains lead. If you find out, would appreciate you posting the answer.

I don't know about the heavy metals but I do know this product caused me severe stomach problems. I had to stop taking it.

Great question. I don't know. I use the product once a week and have had no ill effects. Globally could mean from China or any country. I did not notice this on the packaging and am usually conscience of looking for where product are made. I don't buy products from China due to the fact there is poor to no product product control and poison elements have been found in them. Thank you for the question. you have alerted me to yet another item to check on and avoid. Clear labeling is how to protect our pets as well as ourselves.

Hong Kong is where it is shipped from. And metal is all I know. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

I do not use any product that comes in contact with food...if it is made in China (as this is). Due to lead content in virtually all products made there and their lack of any real quality control standards, you just cannot trust the quality.

WOW, excellent questions. The box says, "Blended and Packaged in U.S.A." so unsure as to where grown. Plus, it doesn't saying anything about having been tested for heavy metals and pesticides.

That's because this Kal Stevia is a "Product of China".....small label on side of my bottle. I got a refund because it didn't state that in the discription of this product. I called the co. and they said the product is tested (sure!)......I don't trust anything coming from China because of the History of their Toxic products.

I don't know. I doubt they are Mercury free, but they are the ones packaged the same as the ones I have bought via you for the last several years......

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.

Hi IA,I can honestly say that it does not contain mercury as I use it and improves my face rather than the opposite which mercury will do to my face if I use it. Also the only way it contains mercury is if it's COUNTERFEIT. So as long as you be careful at who you buy it from, it is perfectly safe.

Bernita is correct, it's from China like 90% of all supplements are. But BulkSupplements has a third party (lab) that test the product for purity.

Hi, Did some research from manufacture's website and yes, it is from China but, from a certified organic farm that uses German inspectors verses Chinese inspectors.But like I said I've been using it for a long time and no problems. Hope this is helpful.

Unfortunately, all the answers miss your point, and I don't know how you can find the truth. I agree with your concerns about the ingredients, particularly with the history of some Chinese mfg providing products containing dangerous ingredients (to people as well as pets.)However, the same applies with many products on your store shelves "made in USA". We can thank our FDA, handmaiden to the food industry, far less effective than much of the EU, for that. I don't have an any more useful than the others :(
