Even certified organic products can, and often do contain dangerous heavy metals like lead. See here: http://www.lowheavymetalsverified.org/ Or here: http://www.doctoroz.com/episode/whistleblower-who-found-poison-americas-food Or do a Google search for something like, "heavy metals in organic food" The problem is that heavy metal levels in food aren't regulated by either the FDA or the USDA. USDA organic certification doesn't include heavy metals certification or regulation. That isn't to say that non-organic products are any better. Also since a warning on the label is completely voluntary, I wouldn't equate the lack of a warning about lead to mean that it has any safer lead levels than products that contain a warning. On another Dr Oz clip which I cannot find on the internet, it was said that IN GENERAL, organic products grown in Canada and California are less likely to be contaminated with heavy metals than those that come from Asia. It's not about the organic certification being untrustworthy because the certification doesn't include heavy metal certification, it's more about how likely the land is to be contaminated with heavy metals in the first place. Land is contaminated through gasoline (the gasoline industry spread lead on most of the world's soil through leaded gasoline), batteries that everyone throws in the trash, paint that ends up dumped out or in trash, or painted surfaces leaching, etc. Heavy metals leach into the soil, then end up in water then migrate far and wide. That's why I think Canadian products are least likely to be contaminated. I reason that all that Canadian wilderness helps Canada in this regard. If there is a choice, I always buy Canadian Organic products now. Also they regulate heavy metals. Next choice, California, last choice Asi

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.

The bottle states "purity guaranteed", says the product is regularly tested (using AOAC international protocols) for freshness, potency and purity by an independent, FDA-registered laboratory, free of detrimental levels of mercury, cadmium, lead, PCB's & 28 other contaminants.

I don't know, not sure if there's a way to tell now. I've used it for the past few months and have had any major health problems. If you know how to test let me know.

Jarden Consumer Solutions (JCS) tests for lead and other toxic metals on its products to ensure they are safe for consumers. In addition, we periodically use accredited third party lab testing to reveal that our slow cooker stoneware is far below the U.S. FDA and California Regulation Prop 65 requirements for extractable lead and cadmium in ceramic wares, thus supporting our results.

The product is made in the USA. Mostly organic ingredients. Uses WHOLE food processing. Not sure about their testing protocols for something like lead. Not sure how lead would get into a natural product. I do know that they are considered a very reputable company. I trust their products at this time.

don't know. BUT I saw the test vs other antibacterial cleaners on Americas Test Kitchen and they said it was equal to the others from a antibacterial standpoint but MUCH better from an environmental standpoint.

It has a test for bacteria for example E.Coli, however the bacteria test does not specify what kind you have in there.

Yes, every single batch of our fish oil is inspected. Our fish oil is molecularly distilled, mercury free, PCB free, and tested for over 258 contaminants.

Hello Natalie! As NOW Foods is NSF GMP Certified, they are required to test for all contaminants including Arsenic after producing a batch of supplements. We hope this information is helpful!

I do not know. The website of the manufacturer (Greenpasture) has a page with their analysis of the product for several nutrients. I do not know if mercury levels appear there. The best would be to ask the manufacturer by phone or email if that product has been recently analyzed for mercury or other toxic metals such as lead, nickel, cadmium. Other option is to take the bottle of pills to a USDA laboratory and check if they can analyze the product by free or by a fee. Please let me know if you get a response to my email sheila092001@yahoo.com. That is a very interesting question to know an answer! I do not know.

There is certificate to confirm lead free, but Calf. require Prop. 65 label if there is lead. In this case,I do not see any warning label--meaning no consern of lead contamination.

Yes, it will test for airborne mold spores which may be hiding behind walls and flooring etc... It really works and is professional quality grade air testing.

Not at all. We moved from CT to Costa Rica and experienced no mold or mildew.
