recently the health ranger found a lot of heavy metals in the vegan rice protein powders, has vega been tested for heavy metals?

Hey there, you may ahve found the answer to your question already but I believe Vega test results come up very clean. Hope this helps. http://www.naturalnews.com/044136_vega_protein_heavy_metals_limits_natural_products.html

I don't know. I've been using it for 1 year now and I don't have any issues. Also, this isn't a protein powder. It's a recovery drink. Like a much better version of Gatorade.

Hi Cindy, Sorry, but I don't remember. I was not all that impressed with this stuff. I am very happy with a product named "Digest All" which is a 100% vegan product, and is available through Amazon. I think the company name is MRM. Good luck, Jack

Hello there, I am a loyal buyer of the product, but not the manufacturer. I think, though, they are vegan simply because the contents are merely medicinal herbs, along with a glycerine gel-cap. The specific blend of herbs assists with the balancing of the thyroid gland, which appears to be "out" in most people, due to fluoride in the water supply, Fukushima radiation, and nutritional deficiencies. Best of luck to you!

There is no potassium. This product is meant to a complete vegan protein. It has pea, potato, sprouted brown rice, alfalfa, and all essential amino acids. I will try to post a picture of the ingredients. If you want a vegan protein powder that is also a nutritional supplement try Vega One. I've been told it is high quality but it definitely doesn't taste as good.

No. They are "FREE OF Gelatin, Yeast, Corn, Milk, Eggs, Soy, Gluten, Salt, Nuts, Shellfish, Artificial Colors, Artificial Flavors and Preservatives"...and non GMO :-) These are the ONLY vitamins that my vegan/allergy ridden child can take :-)

From what I see as per the bottle, no. Usually if a product is gluten free they will advertise it as such. If you want the cleanest vegan, gluten free, natural protein, you may want to check out sunwarrior. I am not sure if amazon carries but I know allstarhealth does, I order a lot of supplements from them also. The sunwarrior line is pricey though.

It has the word Vegan directly above the "R" in Rice. Rice, rice products and flavoring are all that is listed as ingredients.

I do not know it this product is tested for radiation and pesticide residue. I suggest you contact Great Eastern Sun, in Asheville, NC at customersvc@great-eastern-sun.com or www.great-eastern-sun.com or call at 828 665 7790. I have used the product for several years and enjoy it so much. Consuming several sheets of this a day has helped my hypothyroidism greatly.

It relates to the presence of arsenic in rice... do a search for arsenic and rice to find out more, or visit http://www.fda.gov/Food/FoodSafety/FoodContaminantsAdulteration/Metals/ucm319948.htm

Yes, the fish oil pills are tested for PCB and mercury. And, they are guaranteed to be within Proposition 65 limits.PacificCoast NutriLabs

Sorry but I do not know the answer to this question. My mother-in-law is a vegan & her vegan friend recommended this supplement brand.

I was suprised too. I have an old bottle that actually used to have B121 listed. Then one day it wasn't on the label. I now used a vegan multivitamin powder that absorbed easier and goes well intomy shakes.
