What about the cadmium, 13.3 mcg per serving, ConsumerLab.com reports in this product?

Deal breaker for me. I've been using this product for years, 3 tablespoons daily in my workout shakes...no more. Now using Farmers Market Organic Pumpkin to flavor my shakes.

Since I'm not a paying member of ConsumerLab.com, I'm not able to read the test results.

I do not understand why the company has not responded with information on the issue.

One serving is 2.5 tablespoons which, according to Consumer Lab, amounts to 0.95 mcg/gram or 0.95 ppm of cadmium. The upper limit is 0.3 mcg/gram (0.3 ppm). This is over 3 times the limit. One serving is 14 grams, not 26 pounds. The amount cadmium ingested is weight dependent so children's exposure could be much higher.

They are not saying they eat 26 pounds a week. They are being facetious. The point is that one serving is only 14 grams. In the one serving there are 3 times the amount that is considered toxic. 14 grams is 0.03 pounds * (much less then the 26 pounds used sarcastically in the original question) or close to half an ounce. Don't feel bad, we all misread information from time to time. I just wanted to set the record straight and clarify the amounts. *conversions based on internet calculator

If you are eating 26 pounds of chocolate a week, you have a lot of other things to worry about.

The term "serving" is objectively meaningless, but the package definition of 'serving' is 5 grams, which means that a 'serving' contains a bit less than 5 micrograms of cadmium. A 1-pound bag of the powder contains about 454*0.95, or about 430, mcg of cadmium. Divide that by the number of days it takes you to go through such a 1lb. bag to get your average daily cadmium intake from the cocoa. If you consume a bag in 30 days, you're getting about 14 mcg per day from that source, which shouldn't be a serious problem for an average adult.

I don't know where you got that information...the package says <1g sugar in the 1 Tablespoon serving

The label shows 300mg 13 percent of daily person intake. It is very good. I hope this helps.

Hi Anthony,I have your answer quoted word for word from the company that sells Sonne's #7. We are looking into putting a label on our product. The lead in our product is naturally occurring. This is the amount of lead per serving (1 TBls) 0.0007 mcg. As you can see it is a very small amount.

The last box I bought had sodium listed at 160 mg per bar. So not too bad for that. I've seen a lot worse.

These are actually 90 calories and 13g sugar per serving (serving size = 1, serving per package = 8)

If you're planning on taking a boron supplement for a performance boost at the gym, don't bother. It is useless for that purpose.Serving size: 2 capsuleAmount per servingVit d: 200IUCalcium: 500mgMagnesium: 250mgZinc: 7.5mgCopper: 250mcg (I think this is supposed to mean 250 micrograms, but they use this asinine "mcg" abbreviation)Manganese: 2.5mgBoron: 1.5mg (as citrate, glycinate, aspartate)

It seems like the nutrition information printed on this product's label is completely off -- for example, my label says that a 13-gram serving of the powder contains 225 grams of cholesterol, which makes no sense (it doesn't even make sense if you change the grams to mg).However, I would have no reason to believe that this powder is nutritionally any different from regular whole milk, if diluted properly.

Mgs of what? It's a blend of vitamins and minerals. But really, do not buy this product. It really is a scam

The serving size (3 gummies) lists 7.5 mg of zinc citrate. 50% of DV. I did not see any copper listed. Their phone number is 1-800-9NATURE.

I am not sure about cadmium, but I can say that I am not overall happy with this product after less than a year of use.The bottom is not heavy(reinforced) enough and it is already deformed, not allowing oil and liqwuid to spread evenly. The no-smooth surface already shows signs of wear. It also makes it hard to clean both inside and out.I would not buy it again.

you are saying that their website claims that their products contain levels of lead, cadmium and arsenic? I don't remember seeing that information on any website

It has 50 mg Calcium, 200 mcg Chromium, 50 mg Potassium, 1000 mg Garcinia Cambogia. I found Amazon to be the best place to buy it. Please so not go for one of those sites that offer a bottle for shipping. I did and got burned.
