Most Shilajit producers or vendors that I read about claims that their Shilajit is collected in only one proprietary area, and every batch is tested by a 3rd-party U.S. Food and Drug Administration-registered laboratory for: * Fulvic and Humic acid levels * Traces of Cadmium, Lead, Arsenic, Mercury and other Heavy Metals * Indications of Yeast, Mold, E-Coli, Microbials, and SalmonellaAlthough in continuation of these they all indeicat that their statement has not been approved by FDA.

I haven't heard of this. I know that when It is used it is recommended that you wash your hands so you don't get it in your eyes or mouth. I would have to look into it more before doing this. Maybe contact the company.

Norm. I took 3 bottles of this product. After I finish the first one I was already 90 to 95% cured. I took the second one to finish Healing process and third one just in case. Nowhere in the labels packaging or paperwork in the box say anything about ARSENIC. It's been almost a year since my breakout and I am having a happy healthy life right now. And to be honest I do NOT believe anything USDA has to say anyway. USDA is just a huge market.

No. This product is categorized as "Quality GMP Assured." The FDA website explains this.

The FDA does not really clear any finishing product as "food safe" anymore. They do however label products as non-toxic or safe for "casual contact" with food. According to my research, almost any SEALANT produced in the US once fully and properly cured is considered food safe/non-toxic for causal food contact.

I have the product and just checked the bottle -- it is not mentioned anywhere. As James has suggested, better call the manufacturer.

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 :(

No Idea. What are you trying to say here. Were these lot of Kim wipes contaminated?

See my one star review - Amazoner. I question whether their high claimed epa-dha values are accurate. This material seems to be just run off from sardine processing plants, which they don't distill. I've asked them for an independent testing assay - waiting for evidence.

I have not seen any data to suggest it's prepared somewhere that cross-contamination would occur, but it doesn't specifically mention it on the label. The only ingredient is egg whites, so you would assume not. Maybe you can contact the manufacturer directly, and ask. Good luck.

I am glad you are questioning this product it did not tast very good first of all then I saw there was carrageenan in it!!! The things healthy people have to understand is how bad carrageenan is (cancer causing) and the manufacturers of "organic foods put this horrible thing in yogurts soy milk, almond milk...I can go on and on anyway I pitched the rest of the box when I thoroughly read the ingredients. Be aware of things like this!

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!

Good question, but you'll probably have to contact the manufacturer to find out. I can't imagine they would go to all the other trouble to keep it pure (like BPA free lining) and then add contaminated tap water. But assumptions are what get us into trouble.

Hmm. Great question. Nope. There is no information as to toxicity on the label. As this plastic seems to be infinitely remold-able I doubt that there is any out-gassing happening. The product is not soluble in the human body. The only danger I can see would be of choking/blockage so I would not want to swallow a hot/warm glob of this product. Children need to be supervised when using ThermoMorph due to the high temperature needed to mold the product.

There are no disclosures. You can always check the FDA and see if there have been any warnings or alerts listed. There are also a few consumer groups which tests common sports supplement products.

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.

I don't know but I never had any problems with this product if that's your contain. This is my second time I ordering this product. I hope this helps you.
