https://tamararubin.com/2024/07/lead-safe-mamas-landing-page-for-lab-tested-safer-foods/ <<< This article includes a list of the 25 products (foods and supplements) linked below that have tested “non-detect” for Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, and Arsenic with independent, third-party, crowd-funded laboratory testing coordinated by Lead Safe Mama, LLC (an Oregon-based small business with a unique community-collaborative business model and a focus on consumer goods safety and childhood Lead poisoning prevention). There are three additional products on this list (for a total of 28) that tested “non-detect” for Lead, but were positive for trace levels of Arsenic (at levels that are considered safe by all standards).
–
This is NOT an exhaustive list of safer foods. Using independent, third-party laboratory testing, we have tested more than 200 popular food and supplement products this year (in 2024) and these 28 examples demonstrate it is possible for food manufacturers to make safer (toxicant-free) packaged, processed food products (in spite of the industry narrative that this is not possible).
–
Our food landing page (linked near the bottom of this article) also has several lists of safer food choices (generally) and guidelines on how to choose safer foods for your family (from a toxicant-concern perspective). To see all of the products we have tested (including the full lab report for each of these products), click here: https://tamararubin.com/2024/05/links-to-all-of-the-articles-related-to-food-testing-done-by-lead-safe-mama-llc-in-one-place/

The limits of detection for each of the metals tested for (Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, and Arsenic) are noted in the lab report for the specific product listed. To see the full lab report for any of these products, click the link above, then click the word “REPORT” next to the listing of that particular product.

Flavors tested are noted, while other flavors of the same product (or other products from the same brand) have not been tested OR have been tested but did not have similar test results. The test results only apply to the specific products linked below.
