Published: May 14, 2024
Updated: September 16, 2024
If you are interested in testing your own food samples (for Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, and Arsenic), here’s the Lead Safe Mama, LLC affiliate link to the same lab’s food testing submission kits we use for the results we report here on this website: https://amzn.to/3UIPcHP.
- Each kit is for testing one single food item (a snack product, or a spice, or an ingredient, etc).
- Testing food (down to single digit parts per billion levels for Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, and Mercury) is relatively expensive and we want to acknowledge that most people cannot afford to pay for this sort of testing.
- It is because this testing is expensive, and thus not widely accessible, that Lead Safe Mama, LLC is coordinating and publicly sharing the results freely (not behind a paywall) on this website — LeadSafeMama.com.
- In support of this work, the testing company (GoSimpleLab.com) has generously offered to donate their services for Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s first several rounds of testing as well, and we are so thankful for their assistance in making this critical information publicly available!
- Our very first round of lab-testing (with testing for all six products donated by GoSimpleLab.com and published in March 2024) was for six baby food snacks (and similar processed snacks) — with an emphasis on cassava flour-based products. You can find those test results here.
- Our second round of testing was for eight more products (testing which was also donated by GoSimpleLab.com) — flours, and additional flour-based processed foods (also with an emphasis on cassava flours). Those results were published in May of 2024. You can see them here (this list will be updated shortly as well).
- Our third, and fourth rounds of testing are pending and you can see most of the products we are testing on this link. For our June testing, we sent 19 products to the lab. Eight of those 19 tests were donated by GoSimpleLab.com and they are donating the testing for eight more products in July as well. Since July, we have already (as of 7/25) sent 29 products to the lab for testing (and we currently have 31 products slated for testing this month).
- Beyond SimpleLab donating testing for eight products each month, the funding for the remainder of the testing we are completing each month is crowd-sourced through the Lead Safe Mama online community.
How is Lead Safe Mama, LLC choosing what to test first?
Of course, we do not have the resources to test every single food item out there. (I don’t think anyone does — lol)! So, we are initially focusing our limited laboratory testing resources (the testing being donated by GoSimpleLab.com, in support of our work) specifically on popular products which have been identified as the likely source of poisoning (or toxicant exposure) for one or more children in families we have worked with (in order to help expose these companies, push for recalls, and demand corporate change), while also focusing on testing some “control” items in the same product-type categories (items we expect to be negative or low for Lead) — this way we can simultaneously provide data countering the B.S. industry narrative that high-level Lead contamination of food is “unavoidable” or “natural” (in certain product categories).
–
If there is a food you heavily rely on that is not on our testing schedule (especially if it is something regularly eaten by a kiddo with a restricted/ limited diet), ordering a lab testing submission kit directly and having it tested yourself might be worth the cost for your family. Here’s that aflink again: https://amzn.to/3UIPcHP.
How to sponsor Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s testing of a food product
Alternately, if you would like to sponsor having Lead Safe Mama, LLC test (and report on) a specific single food item (where Lead Safe Mama, LLC buys the item from the manufacturer or a local store, then tests the item and publishes the results so the testing is publicly available for all to see so you can share the results with the manufacturer via our website — Lead Safe Mama, LLC serves as an independent third-party source), you (on your own or with a group of friends) can make a $495 contribution to Lead Safe Mama, LLC.
We are also currently crowd-sourcing the funding for many products suggested by the community on GoFundMe and you can find all of our open GoFundMe campaigns linked at the top of this page (scroll up).
This money (crowd-funded, community group-funded, or contributed by a single individual) will cover the cost of purchasing the product, testing the product, and reporting/ publishing the test results. (Please note: Contributions are not tax-deductible as we are not a nonprofit.)
Cost Breakdown for Lead Safe Mama Sponsored Testing:
-
- $195 — Cost of test kit from Simple Lab (linked here)
- $2 to $150 ($50 is our approximate average cost, to date) —
- To purchase sufficient quantity of the products to be tested and to also keep some “on file” (in storage), should product manufacturers challenge our findings
- Some products will cost more and some less to meet the required quantity of product for testing (about 50 grams of materials)
- Our product cost range to date has been from about $2 on the low-end, for a can of specialty soda to about $150 on the high-end, for some vitamins/ supplements and some fancy specialty foods.
- NOTE: We purchase items online whenever possible so that we have a digital record of the purchase for legal purposes. Many of the specialty foods and supplements are only sold with a subscription or by the case — so a minimum quantity of several units must be purchased (purchasing a single box or package online is not an option).
- $35 to $50 — Fees (GoFundMe, PayPal, Venmo, etc)
- GoFundMe has a minimum 45-cent processing fee (per each individual contribution). So, for example, if we received ninety nine $5 contributions via GoFundMe, the fee would be about $44.55. PayPal and Venmo fees can be higher than GoFundMe (as a percentage of the contribution).
- $170 to $215 — Additional Lead Safe Mama costs (testing-related administrative assistance, editing, fees, etc.)
- ________________________
- $402 to $610 — Total Estimated Cost Range (Midpoint: $506)
- GoFundMe Goal Set at $495 per item
Please note: This budget does not include any amount of funds for Tamara’s time for coordinating the testing and reporting (Tamara is volunteering her time to do this food testing).
Please e-mail Testing@LeadSafeMama.com with “FOOD TESTING” in the subject line if you (alone or with a group of friends) are interested in sponsoring the testing of a particular food item in the above noted way (or if you would like to nominate a food item for a crowd-sourced funding campaign via GoFundMe). Let us know which specific food product you would like to have tested (including the flavor of the product if the product comes in multiple flavors). Please wait for a confirmation email from us before sending any funds (it may take several weeks or longer for us to respond, please be patient). Thank you.
Q. “Why should we pay more to have this testing done by Lead Safe Mama, LLC instead of just doing it on our own?”
- Sponsoring Lead Safe Mama, LLC to complete the testing (and publish the results on our website and social media channels) carries more weight (in terms of demanding transparency and better standards from the companies whose products we are testing) than testing on your own for your personal use.
- Having Lead Safe Mama, LLC coordinate the testing also means the test results will reach a wider audience/ will have a greater public benefit (especially long-term, as all of the results for products we test are published on this website).
- When Lead Safe Mama, LLC coordinates the testing of a product, we (as a business) also assume the risk/ liability in the event any of the companies attempt to challenge any test results we publish.
- Unfortunately, if you test a product on your own, we cannot publish those test results on our website as we need to oversee the full chain-of-custody for the testing (for legal purposes) — from product purchasing to sending the product to the lab to reviewing and publishing the lab report — limiting any potential liability considerations.
Even with the above noted logical points supporting the possible additional benefits of participating in our new crowd-sourced model for this testing, we do want to reiterate that testing on your own for personal use is a completely reasonable course of action if you just want to know what the test results are for a product you eat (or your child eats) on a regular basis!

Tanya says
Hi!
Can you please test organic chocolate chips! I feel so hopeless when it comes to chocolate! We need your help! I’ll sponsor a test! Thank you for all you do.
Rachel says
Yes!!! Please find us some safe chocolate chips!
Tamara says
I don’t think that’s possible – but I will keep looking!
Have you seen my film? The final scene is about chocolate contamination.
Here’s the link: https://tamararubin.com/2023/01/a-link-to-my-film/
T
Hannah says
There are a couple of Canadian products I use that I wanted to suggest including a chocolate option:
1. Chocosol Traders
They published 2022 testing results for their 100% cacao chocolate bar which to my understanding is the base for all their bars. This is covered in this blog post which links to the lab report. They probably don’t detect as low an amount at the lab LSM is currently using but I felt this was a decent option as a chocolate lover. Cadmium levels could likely be better…
It seems they had plans to for some trials in 2023 – I’ll be inquiring with them about that!
Lead is >0.01 ppm
Cadmium is 0.62 ppm
https://chocosoltraders.com/blogs/news/chocosol-chocolate-is-safe#:~:text=In%20terms%20of%20lead%2C%20mercury,of%20the%20recommended%20maximum%20level.
2. Vancouver Island Sea Salt
I contacted Vancouver Island Sea Salt in Dec 2022 and received a copy of third party testing from 2022, which indicates the lead content was 0.012 ppm or 12 ppb.
According to their website, their “process includes micro-filtering our sea water to remove any unwanted impurities plus artisanal techniques and timing that create the perfect texture and flavour profile.”
Kat says
Unfortunately, 0.62 ppm cadmium equals 620 ppb – so this chocolate is up in the realm of the Celtic Sea Salt and would be one of the higher results found if it tested at that level again. I don’t think that Tamara has reported any of the food results in ppm because the proposed action levels are ppb (cadmium proposed action level is 5 ppb).
Barbara says
Hi!
Would it be possible to start a campaign to test ” Nature’s Path, Organic Heritage Flakes Cereal” ? Thank you for all you do.
Tamara says
Thanks for your comment. Will add it to the list of prospective items to have tested.
Ana says
Yes please, anything Nature’s Path’s. If possible Nature’s Path Berry Blast Cheetah Chomps Organic Cereal. Thank you so much!
Kat says
I’d like to add Nature’s Path Love Crunch to this list – any variety, but I think the Red Berries flavor is one of the more popular and widely available flavors. Thank you for your consideration and for all that you do!
Andrea Murray says
Has anyone asked for paediasure vanilla? And would the product be the same from us vesus uk? Thanks
Cathy says
Thanks for this information. I am considering ordering the Simple Labs food test kit to do myself. I am assuming since it could be used for flour it could also be used for a powdered clay (bentonite clay in capsules). If you know I would appreciate your input. I don’t want to invest in a kit that I can’t use for that. I am also wondering how much material is required for testing, because a bottle of bentonite capsules is only about 1-2 tablespoons of material, I am guessing. Would appreciate your input.
Kat says
Hi, thanks for your work! Would you please consider testing the Bob’s Red Mill organic rolled oats to compare with the One Degree organic rolled oats you tested? I appreciate your consideration!
Emily says
Seconded– I would contribute to this GoFundMe! Bob’s Red Mill are our go-to oats.
Maggie says
I would love this tested too!
Amber says
Please consider testing Serenity Kids Salmon or Bison pouches. As well as Lundberg Organic White Basmati, Regenerative Organic Certified.
Debating on testing myself but would love results to be shared with the public etc.
Is there a better place to request products?
Thank you for all your work!
Tanya Nancarrow says
Hi Tamara, thank you for your hard work! We drink a lot of Almond milk and I was wondering if this would be something you could test. Specifically, the brand “Earth’s Own” in unsweetened original. Thanks again for all you do!
Michele says
I would also like to see the Serenity Kids Salmon pouches tested. My toddler refuses to eat most sources of protein that I offer him, so I recurrently fall back on this. Thank you!
Lidia says
Wish we could test Earths Best organic veggie puffs cheddar flavor! The bag with the Sesame Street characters on the front. Might do the home test but then it couldn’t be published. Would people be interested in crowd funding this one? We would contribute as well…
Corrine Garcia says
Hi!
I appreciate all you do! Would love to nominate a couple popular kid targeted snacks. Annies organic cheddar bunnies (the classic purple box) and Made Good mixed berry or chocolate chip granola bites. Saw you are testing their birthday cake bars, but would love to see testing for the ones that may be targeted as “healthier”
Kat says
I compared the ingredients for the Made Good granola bites, the chocolate chip bars, and the birthday cake bars after Tamara published the birthday cake results yesterday, and unfortunately it seems like Made Good uses basically the same ingredients in all of their products, just in slightly different orders. I’m returning our unopened giant bag of granola bites to Costco.
Earecka says
Hello,
Could you please consider testing “Dave’s Killer Bread”, Organic Powerseed thin sliced bread? We buy this from Costco, and my 2 and 4 year olds eat it daily. We live off of this stuff!
Thank you so much. I would definitely contribute to the go-fund-me campaign!
Amy says
I would love some bread options too!
Bonnie says
Yes! We have eaten a lot of Daves and I am so curious how it compares. Would definitely contribute!
Kathy says
I’d like to have Dave’s Killer Bread tested too, especially the white buns. I’d contribute to the go fund-me campaign.
Thank you for all that you do!
Earecka says
Dear Tamara,
My kids and I eat Trader Joe’s Gluten free Rolled Oats every other day. Could these oats be considered for go-fund-me testing? I will contribute!
Tamara says
K – will keep it in mind for future testing!
Have you tried this brand: https://tamararubin.com/2024/06/june-2024-laboratory-test-results-for-one-degree-organic-gluten-free-sprouted-rolled-oats/
Earecka says
Yes! I’ve started buying them!
Lindsey Morrone says
Can you test pirates booty?
TheNoToxMom says
Did you see the recent test results for Pirate’s Booty? https://tamararubin.com/2024/09/pirates-booty-aged-white-cheddar-flavor-rice-corn-puffs-test-positive-for-arsenic-september-2024-lab-report/
There are many different brands being tested currently with results posted to the website on a regular basis. You can click on the search bar in the upper right corner and search keywords to see the most up-to-date articles. I like to check back often.
Yvette Vasquez says
Can you please test serenity kids baby food pouches
Maybe Baby says
Could you test Garden of Life My Kind Organics Vegan Whole Food Prenatal vitamins? I took them during my first pregnancy and I have been taking them for a couple years now while trying for another child. I’d like to know if they are safe since I’ve been taking them so long.
Kat says
I second this recommendation! These are the prenatals I’ve taken during pregnancy with all 3 of my kiddos, as well as for nursing for 6 months to a year after their births. I would definitely contribute to a GoFundMe for this product.
Karen says
Hi –
I am a vegetarian and my family loves the Tolerant Green Lentil Pasta as a source of protein and fiber. Could this lentil pasta be considered for go-fund-me testing? I will contribute! Thanks!
Kristen says
Interested in seeing a gluten free one to one flour tested, such as Red Mill or King Arthur’s.
My other request would be Jovial organic gluten free brown rice pasta – fusilli.
I would donate to these for sure!
Gwen says
Has Jiff Peanut butter been tested?
I would love to see it and a Great Value brand tested. My 2 year old granddaughters levels have not decreased as hoped. We were told for her to eat lot’s of peanut butter.
Thank you! I would surely donate for these!
Sarah says
Just wanted to let you know that jif and other non organic peanuts are on the list of most contaminated with fungicide. Because they grow on the ground they are more likely to get fungus and they are also likely using pesticide and herbicide as well. Environmental Working Group has a list called the Dirty Dozen that will tell you the food that you should not eat unless it’s organic.
Mel says
Will makeup be something tested in the future? For example, Araza beauty claims to be clean and is a new brand out there. Tia
Emily says
I would like to nominate either Rice or Corn Chex for possible testing! Hoping some other readers will second the request, if they would find this beneficial as well. I think it would be interesting to see testing for more of these “mainstream” brands, the same way you crowd-funded testing for Cheerios and Kraft mac.
Tamara says
Good choices!
T
Kat says
These results have just been shocking and rather devastating – I’m so frustrated with these companies! Thank you for shining a light on their false claims.
Given the Smarty Pants results, I’m hoping that you’ll consider testing more kids’ vitamins. I’d like to nominate the YumV Kids Multi Zero vitamins – they’re marketed as kids’ vitamins and minerals “with none of the bad stuff!” Here’s a link: https://yumvs.com/product/vitamin-zero-multivitamin-gummies/. I sincerely hope they’re okay, as I chose them thinking they’d be a better alternative to others on the market. I would absolutely contribute to a campaign if you begin one.
Thanks again for your work and for all that you do!
Tamara says
Thank you.
T
Jill Goldstein says
Hi! Thank you for your work! I was wondering if you could add these to your testing: Trader Joe’s organic fruit wrap apple wild berry.(Their version of fruit leather.)
Danielle says
Love that you are doing this work. If possible, could we add BioGaia Baby Probiotic Drops with Vitamin D and Ritual’s Prenatal vitamin to the list? These are both things my family takes daily that I think many others may be using as well.
The Ritual prenatal I’m really curious about since I did a lot of looking before choosing it and they have very traceable ingredients and supposedly conduct 3rd party testing (naturally, it is very expensive)…
Sarah Malki says
Hi! Thank you for all that you do! I was hoping you can test organifi’s kids easy greens powder.
Kae says
Interested in testing the very popular Bambas peanut butter puff snacks that many rely on
Emily says
I second this one!
Bethany says
I would love to have Nature’s Path instant organic oatmeal packets tested. They come in plain and different flavors. 8 or 10 packets per box. Thank you!
Bonnie says
I’d love to see Serenity Kids Toddler Whole Milk formula, Garden of Life organic prenatals (or mens multivitamins), and raw D3. I noticed their plant blend contains some root vegetables which concerns me as they are additionally processed to be in powder form. Really any Vitamin Code products, since they carry a lot of trust and fill important roles for us nursing moms who want to be extra health-conscious.
Laura Miller says
I’d love for Renzo’s Iron Strong vitamin for kids to be tested.
R says
Seconded, but also the chocolate and grape flavors of the DeLish Ferric Sulfate iron liquid supplements. Gave to my baby with 3.4 dl/dg when she was 1 (now 4.5 years old) and want to look ahead for second child.
Earecka says
Could you consider testing Thorne Perfect Prenatals? They are supposed to be ultra-clean, and made in the USA. I have taken them for years, and am trying to become pregnant.
Thank you for considering!
R says
I second this ^
Katie says
I would love to have Kashi Organic Honey Toasted Oat Cereal Tested!
https://kashi.com/en_US/products/kashi-heart-to-heart-cereal-honey-toasted-oat-product.html
Thank you for considering this product.
m.arcy says
suggestions:
Gimme Nori Snacks with OLIVE OIL (instead of avocado)–any diff?
Epic Pork Rinds
Brami Beans (snacks)
THANK YOU!
Kelli says
Hi,
I’m so thankful for your work! And so disappointed in the number of products resulting in awful scores.
Would love for you to test King Aurther’s Gluten Free Measure for Measure Flour as well as Thrive Market organic quick Oats and Thrive Market Organic Veggie Sticks.
ConcernedMama says
Would you add Sitka Salt (from Sitka, Alaska) to your salt testing consideration? Seems a possible safe source also being more PNW based like the Oregon Salt. Central Market sells Sitka Salt near me in WA.
Also, my daughter tested 3.4 on blood lead levels when she was one, and I had been taking:
1) Legendary Milk brand Duct,Duct Loose sunflower lecithin supplement while breastfeeding
She had been taking:
2) SpoonfulOne early allergen introduction powder supplement (and later their puff snacks) with her pumped milk bottles starting 4 months,
3) NovaFerrum chocolate iron drops and 4) their multi-vit drops, and before that tried these two brands when it was recommended she started iron:
5) InfantumIron liquid supplement
6) Nature’s Nutra Easy Iron liquid supplement
All these products before the pediatrician recommended we lead test, and before I knew better about heavy metals in supplements especially sunflower oil via your site.
She really only had possible exposure once via a Halloween decoration, but besides that, I never knew what the lead source could have been. I made our own baby foods too (using BabyBrezza steamer/puree appliance).
If anyone else has asked about testing these products, I will contribute as well. I have contributed to 10+ food tests to far. Excited (and disgusting) for this new wave of food testing results you’re doing so we know what to avoid. Thanks for the hard work.
Sam says
Thank you for everything you do Tamara
I would like to nominate Trader Joe’s Bambas. It is my 14 month old’s favorite snack. It was recommended to us by his pediatrician as a continuous source of peanut exposure.
Lisa B says
Some ideas for testing that my kids have eaten a lot of due to dairy allergies:
– Made Good Vegan Cheddar Stars
– that’s it fruit bars
– nature’s bakery oatmeal crumble bars or any bars by nature’s bakery
– hippies vegan puffs
– Trader Joe’s Bamba puffs
– animal crackers by Barnum animals
– honey maid graham crackers
– teddy grahams
– snyders pretzels, splitz pretzels
– from the ground up cauliflower cheddar crackers
– Trader Joe’s veggie straws
– ripple kids milk
Thank you for your consideration!
Sarah Marie says
Thank you SO much for all that you do, Tamara! I am so grateful for all of your work.
I would love to nominate a few popular supplement brands:
-“Code Age” Grass-fed beef kidney supplements
-“Code Age” Grass-fed beef liver supplements
-“AOR” Vitamin C supplements
“Microbiome Labs Mega IgG2000” supplement
-“Earthley”s pain tinctures: “Anti-Inflammation” and “Pain Potion”
-ConcenTrace drops
Melissa says
I’d love to see test results for Oatly Oatmilk (we use the full fat one, but any one would be useful). Our pediatrician suggested postponing dairy for our daughter, and this is the only brand of oat milk she likes, so she ends up drinking a lot of it.
Morgan says
Thank you so much for the work you do. You’ve tested multiple things that I no longet eat but did occasionally in the past. I wanted to nominate redmond salt and artisana coconut butter.
Tamara says
Redmond Salt has been tested – here’s the link:
https://tamararubin.com/2024/07/independent-3rd-party-laboratory-testing-confirms-redmond-real-salt-tests-positive-for-unsafe-levels-of-lead-and-arsenic-july-2024/

Cristin says
We love organic Coach’s Oats and I would really like to see how they test, considering how much we eat of them! We get them at Costco, but here’s the link from their site. https://coachsoats.com/buy-coachs-oats/two-48-oz-organic-bags/
Thanks for your work.
TheNoToxMom says
Have you tried these oats? We buy these from Costco now. https://tamararubin.com/2024/06/june-2024-laboratory-test-results-for-one-degree-organic-gluten-free-sprouted-rolled-oats/
Also, you can click the search bar in the upper right corner and search keywords like “oats” to see all of the articles. I’ve been checking back often because they’re testing so many different brands right now. Hope this helps!
Shirley says
Would you consider testing Thorne Basic Prenatal Vitamins? (https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/basic-prenatal?srsltid=AfmBOopLbYWyENk779NQ85XOlOEYAcFHohNraX8oLlpjdJ4VRQuVYGMe) or also on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/THORNE-Basic-Prenatal-Well-Researched-Pregnant/dp/B00O59SH3E/). Dr. Rhonda Patrick recommends this one and I’ve been using this regularly. I’d definitely contribute to the Go Fund Me! Thank you!
Jenn says
Thank you for your hard work. Would you be able to test the different flavors of Dinobars?
Darlene says
Would you please consider testing Forager products? Like the yogurt and sour cream? Thank you so much for all you do!
nanay.princess says
Hi!
My son’s pediatrician never told us to give him multivitamin but ofc I got Hiya then this happened. He said if I really insist, his rec will be the BlueBonnet for kids .
https://bluebonnetnutrition.com/products/rainforest-animalz-whole-food-based-multiple-assorted-flavors
If anyone uses in this group & would like to be tested, I’ll donate too. Thank you!
Melissa Barone says
Please test the Go Raw Sprouted Organic Pumpkin Seeds from Costco (or Whole Foods). I’d be happy to send a bag to you!!
Mayra says
Can you add Ripple unsweetened original to the go fund me campaign? It is frequently recommended for diary allergy kiddos and that’s what my daughter has been drinking since she was 1. Thanks for all you do
Brittney Guerra says
I would love to see Athletic Greens(AG1) tested and Tend prenatal bars please!
KC says
How do I add Little Bellies Banana Stick snacks to the GoFundMe page for testing?
LA says
I know we tested wheat flour but can we test wheat berries like https://farmfreshwheat.com/shop-now in order to make our own flour. I know Einkorn was safe but I would like more options for pasta, pastry making if that makes sense. Also, any clue on sugar? We usually use turbinado or dark black when needed which is usually less than a tablespoon per day but i do make cakes and pastries for birthdays and celebrations and want those to be as safe as possible. Thanks in advance!!
Olivia says
I would love to know about Organic One Degree Spelt Flour or Organic One Degree Sprouted Spelt Flour! Hoping it’s similar to Jovial’s Einkorn Flour!
Adriane says
I nominate PaleoValley bone broth powder (would it test different than collagen made with hides?) as well as MegaFood Baby and Me 2 since it is a whole food based prenatal.
Your work is eye opening and also discouraging since we have eaten so many of these foods while thinking we are doing the right thing for our families! Do you have a section or recommendations on your website for what to do next for removing these toxins from our bodies?
Dd says
I know this thread is about food, but I can’t find another contact. It is sauerkraut season, have you ever tested a crock for making it? I did not find one on your site.
PK says
Saw all the great testing you did on the baby food puffs and devastated to learn not one tested thus far is remotely safe for consumption. I found it interesting to see the Yumi brand landing page to tout their policy against heavy metals: https://helloyumi.com/heavy-metals/ That said, I believe you tested something of theirs which failed miserably! This is worrying to say the least. In the spirit of finding a safe puff snack, can I nominate the testing of this one in particular? https://helloyumi.com/product/yumi-organic-meltable-puff/ in strawberry basil? My daughter is a tad obsessed with this one and would devour a bottle a day if I allowed it, but Im terrified to learn it may be toxic. Thank you in advance, your hard work is savings lives and educating us all!!!!!
