Does anybody see a tag coming along with this item warning that this product contains chemicals known to the state of CAto cause cancer?

There is a sign at the entrance to Disneyland (and many other places in California) that say the same thing. You're not going to get cancer from it.

The tags on my seat state that the seat is made with polyurethane foam and plastic. The tags issue a warning not the put the seat close to hot objects. This is because high heat or fire will cause Formaldehyde to be released. Formaldehyde and plastics release carcinogenics when heated to high temperatures. My seat has a California compliant tag and does not state the seat is carcinogenic.Hope this was helpful!

Yes. It does indeed contain such chemicals, but I've seen enough of those that I don't really try to avoid them. If, however, you like playing it extra safe, you might want to avoid it.

Really didn't notice one, but then I live in Florida and pretty much ignore what goes on in CA.

That reply doesn't make sense at all! The warning has nothing to do with conforming to regulations -- it is about containing harmful chemicals....I'm guessing that rep has no clue what the prop 65 warning is.I submitted a question on their site too, so I will post again if I get a different response.Thanks for the reply!

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 :(

Hi, The state of California enacted Proposition 65 which entitles their residents to be notified when ingestible products contain any ingredients described in the Prop 65 list of compounds that may cause cancer or birth defects. The products that you encounter everyday may have a Prop 65 warning that you were unaware of such as tap water, eye glasses, kitchen applicances etc. Macrolife has listed this on the label that may contain naturally occurring metals. This is due to the naturally occurring state that the products are grown in the ground. We believe in wild harvesting most of our ingredients to preserve their integrity. Prop 65 warning does not necessarily mean a product is in violation of any product-safety standards or requirements. Hope it helps. Thank you.

The CA Prop 65 warning indicates a product contains compounds that could cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. I typically avoid anything that has that label associated with it. Before this product ever had this label, however, we purchased it for our children. I suspect that the plastic pieces, the magnets sandwiched between the plastic pieces, or even the glossy coating on the pattern cards are things that contain "less than desirable chemicals". Now for my most humblest of opinions...practically every toy for sale on amazon and in local stores probably qualify for that label. Whether it contains lead, or BPA, bromide, chloride, etc. Just because a toy doesn't have that warning doesn't mean it doesn't qualify. I looked everywhere on the packaging for this toy for the CA prop 65 warning and didn't find it. Unfortunately, one never truly knows what yucky chemicals are hiding in children's toys. If you want a truly non-toxic toy, you need to stick with unfinished wooden toys. Hopefully change is on the horizon for toy manufacturers.

The product label really doesn't say. In reviewing the ingredients, I am very disturbed by the almost 50 individual items comprising it, including polysorbate-60 in the first five. True, it has "31%" organic ingredients but half are various chemicals not of plant origin. Maybe these have not been tested on animals but they surely are being tested on humans as consumers. I do not plan to purchase this product again. Shame on BWC for this chemical soup.

I don't know and I don't care if (CH3)2C(C6H4OH)2 is in the make up of a can or not! I wish I had that kind of time to WORRY about such. I'm more concerned about terrorist' attacks; a potential war with Syria; and idiots running around with guns! Let's not forget the psychopaths that kill people in theaters, and gun down innocent children! I wonder how many people in The Twin Towers on 9/11/01 avoided BPA like the plaque?

It is not labeled organic so that should be a red flag. Other than that I do not know.

No, but if you go to Ancient Minerals website, you can find out what exactly is in the formula. Its minerals, so no carcinogens should be included in any form. The product is GREAT!

BEWARE this company is buying 5 star reviews. You cannot trust whatever ingredients are even in this product. Here's an image of the company asking me to give them a positive review: http://imgur.com/Pj862tx

Well, I'm not a doctor, but I'm guessing that the tag makes reference to the fill material, which is little polystyrene (Styrofoam) pellets. I imagine that as long as no one EATS the pellets, there will be no danger. Incidentally, if you look around your house, you'll probably be able to find several products that California warns against for various reasons; including such warnings is a legal requirement in order to sell products in the state of California. In short, it's nothing to worry about.

Yes, this product does have a warning label. I just received my 1lb maca Powder and saw a warning label on it. I read what Healthworks wrote about Cal Prop 65. We already consume so much lead throughout our daily intakes, so "0.5 mcg/day" using this particular Maca powder adds up to a toxic level. I will return this product. I purchased this before Healthworks post their answer. Since others answered that they did not see a warning label, I purchased it. I should have closely read the small print on the image.

Alluminum and Nickle lead all caused cancer but you said that you thought that they may have be taken heavy metal out of their product and that is too what I read somewhere. Phennylalamine is an amino acid and the state of California has banned it .Do you think they took it out too?Please e mail me if allowed if bit leave a comment thx medicine

All nutritional supplements in California contain this warning due to Prop 65. I would not worry about it, because ALL supplements say this.

Okay, so I've seen posts where everyone is saying Californians are way too crazy about everything causing cancer. It just sucks when your buying something for your health and you feel good about it, then you open it up and it says it just might give you cancer. lol - not funny good.

They often have a picture of the back of the bottle showing ingredients. If not on yhat particular listing then you'll have to try another listing to see.
