A Quick Note from Tamara Rubin:

The note here (below, after the product image, scroll down) is essentially the exact same note as for the Boka toothpaste (results posted earlier, here), which also tested positive for Lead, Arsenic, and Mercury. However, it is important to highlight here that the Lead-level for this Hello Fresh Watermelon flavor toothpaste product is outrageous (very high) and even more outrageous than the amount of Lead found in the Boka product given this Hello Fresh Watermelon flavor is sold as a children’s product… for “kids all ages.”

UPDATE:

• A lot of families have been asking me what they should do if their child has been using this toothpaste. My response is:
  1. Watch my documentary feature film so you have a background on the issue of Lead Poisoning. It’s a crash course on the issue and is available to watch for free on YouTube. Here’s the link (it is 92 minutes long).
  2. Get your kids tested for Lead, either via a blood Lead test (which shows recent exposure) or a provoked urine test (which can determine longer-term exposure). If you have not had your kids tested recently, it is always good to have a baseline (and hopefully they will not test positive). Here’s an article with more information on blood Lead testing.
  3. Stop using this product immediately.
  4. File a complaint with the FDA (more on that below).
•  We have not yet found a safe (independently tested, heavy metals-free) toothpaste for children, but have several options undergoing testing at the lab. When we find one, we will post the lab report here on the website and share about it on our social media and patreon channels as well.All places where we post this information can be followed free of charge.
  • If you would like to make a contribution in support of getting more of more toothpaste products sent off to the lab for testing – with the goal of finding a safer product for children (all of the laboratory testing and reporting we coordinate here at Lead Safe Mama, LLC is community nominated and community funded), please click here to see which toothpaste/ tooth powder product campaigns are pending and have not yet raised enough funds to cover our cost for testing and reporting. Please make a contribution of $10 or $20 (or whatever you can afford) in support of this initiative only if you are in a position to do so. We do  not want anyone contributing in support of this work if that contribution may present a financial hardship for their family.
  • The full lab report is always at the bottom of each article we publish related to the product. Please scroll to the bottom of this page to see the lab report for this Hello Fresh Watermelon Toothpaste product.
  • Here’s our budget for these campaigns (how we spend the money raised for the product testing and reporting we do), this budget is also linked on GoFundMe -— I volunteer my time to coordinate the testing and to write up the results, and – unfortunately – we do not get a discount on the laboratory testing (in fact the lab network we use actually charges us more than they normally charge – in order to meet our stricter standards for low thresholds of detection for the testing we coordinate).
•  Ask your doctor if your child needs to use toothpaste — in many cases (especially with toddlers and younger children) the act of brushing and flossing is enough and toothpaste is actually not required. The goal with younger children is more to teach them good brushing and flossing habits and many families do that with a toothbrush with water only, or with tiny amount of coconut oil, or with a small amount of baking soda.
• If you have used this Hello toothpaste product for your children and would like to file a complaint with the FDA, here’s the link to do so (please include a copy of the lab report that’s at the bottom of this page to support your complaint — thanks! – you should be able to click the image of the lab report and drag it to your desktop so you can include it with your complaint) https://www.fda.gov/safety/report-problem-fda
  • If you do choose to report this product to the FDA, please remember that the people at the other end (the FDA employees receiving your complaint) are our friends and we are asking for their help! Please treat them with respect.
    • It is their job to help us and they want to help us —  we just need to get them the information they need so they can help us.
    • It is not the FDA employee’s fault that this product tested positive for a high level of Lead: we are doing our job (as citizens) to let them know about a concerning product – and they – in turn – will do their job to see if our community coordinated / community funded scientific findings (along with your personal complaint) provide actionable data under the law.
    • I have spoken with several FDA representatives over the past year and they truly want to help us hold companies accountable for making toxic products! Many of them are older women in their 50s or 60s, so please treat them like you would treat your mom or your grandma if you were to ask them for help. Please don’t be angry with them – that is misplaced anger – your anger should be directed at the company making the toxic product, not at the public servants trying to help us hold these companies accountable for their bad actions! The FDA employees helping us with this are superheroes!
  • Also if you choose to join us in filing a complaint about this toothpaste with the FDA, (and if it is relevant to your situation) the FDA would really appreciate it if you could include with your complaint any medical record paperwork you might have (that you are willing to share) indicating that your child tested positive for Lead (in their blood or urine) during the course of using this product – or any other product of concern you may be filing a complaint about (especially if the source of Lead exposure was “mysterious” — never found by your family, the local health department, or your doctor).
    • That said, you do not need to have proof of an impacted child (a child with a positive Blood Lead Level – for example) to make a complaint – complaints from anyone who purchased this product and who used it for their children are helpful!
    • If you do have relevant Lead testing for your child that you can share, complaints supported by medical paperwork are extra helpful in supporting the people at the FDA in doing their job – supporting their ability to take action against a company (like getting a product recall approved).
    • Also – key point, you  don’t need confirmation or proof that your child’s BLL (Blood Lead Level) was necessarily CAUSED by the toothpaste (or other specific product you may be making a complaint about) as that is nearly impossible to prove – however complaints from families with potentially impacted children who have used this product help make the FDA’s job easier.

Repeated from the Boka Article:

While I have some ideas regarding which toothpastes are likely safest (from a toxicant perspective), based on reviewing ingredient-focused research online, we have not yet found a safe toothpaste through the Lead Safe Mama, LLC laboratory testing initiative. We have more toothpastes and powders at the lab right now (just awaiting results), so please do stand by and check back for those tests to publish. This is the “Toothpaste” category link, which will take you to an expanding list of  articles with laboratory reports for recently tested products in the coming weeks.

In any case — given the fact that this HELLO brand toothpaste tested positive for concerning levels of Mercury and Lead (and also tested positive for Arsenic ) — using “No toothpaste” is better than using this toothpaste. Brushing without toothpaste can be just as effective as using toothpaste as long as brushing and flossing habits are good and thorough (ask your dentist for tips)! For my own children, we did not use toothpaste at all until they were in their pre-teen years, and even now we only use toothpaste very sparingly (a tube can last me a couple of years).

• Whatever you choose to do (toothpaste or no toothpaste), if you have been using any HELLO toothpaste products I recommend you STOP using this brand entirely (including any other toothpaste flavors from this brand, not just watermelon) until we can conduct further testing of the different types and flavors they offer to determine if any are safe (“safe” = free of heavy metals).
• Said another way, while HELLO may offer different toothpaste flavors, absent additional independent testing, if the different HELLO products have similar ingredient profiles I would expect their range of products to test similarly regardless of the flavor variations.
• Given this one bad test result (for the Hello Fresh Watermelon-flavored product), it is reasonable to proactively assume everything from this brand may test poorly — at least assuming this until we can demonstrate otherwise (through truly independent, third-party, community-funded testing!)

MOST IMPORTANTLY: ANY amount of MERCURY in a toothpaste (or any other product that may be ingested accidentally or intentionally) is too much Mercury (that sentiment applies to Lead and Arsenic too, but especially for Mercury)! Scroll down for the full original lab report for this product.

Important Background: What is an Action Level?

Please note the following key points:

The original lab report for this product is below (at the bottom of this page).

The graphic above shows the levels of metals detected in this product (in red) along with the low threshold of detection (in orange, above the action levels discussed/ or in green, below the action levels discussed) for each metal not detected with the laboratory testing Lead Safe Mama, LLC had completed for this product. The numbers are juxtaposed (in blue) to the “Action Level” proposed by the medical and scientific community in 2021 as part of the Baby Food Safety Act.

• These 2021 levels were proposed as “Action Levels” because they are (in fact) protective of human health.
• An “Action Level” is NOT the same as a “Maximum Allowable Level” or a “Recommended Daily Amount.” If a product reaches the “Action Level” for heavy metals, it has too much of the heavy metals in question.
  • Many food and supplement manufacturers misinterpret existing guidance on heavy metals to mean the stated levels are “allowable levels” or “acceptable levels” (in spite of the scientific consensus that there is no safe level of Lead exposure, for example) and consider it reasonable for products to test positive for heavy metals, but at levels that fall below any regulated maximums.
  • This is a (perhaps intentional?) misunderstanding/ misinterpretation the food and supplement industry makes — a misunderstanding manufacturers use to justify the presence of heavy metals in products.
  • As an example: A common refrain in this realm is when a supplement or food manufacturer proudly proclaims its product meets prop 65 guidelines as it tests positive for Lead, but under the limit noted by Prop 65. This position entirely disregards the well-known scientific fact there is no safe level of Lead exposure for humans.
• Heavy metals accumulate in the body.
  • It is the cumulative/ aggregate impact of heavy metal exposure (over a lifetime) that makes even small/ incidental/ seemingly trivial exposures particularly damaging and dangerous. You can read more about that here.
• Once a food or supplement product has the amount of heavy metal (Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, or Arsenic) noted (above) as the “Action Level,” that product is officially considered (by the scientific and medical community) to have metals at a level that is unsafe for consumption by children — as toxicants (found at-or-above these levels) are in the range of heavy metal levels that have been demonstrated to cause lasting harm.
• Action Levels are a better (more health-protective) metric than Prop 65 limits as they are more comprehensive and UNRELATED TO SERVING SIZE .
  • Serving sizes are set by manufacturers and in many cases do not reflect real world consumption habits and patterns (more on that below).
  • Serving size thresholds for toxicity also do not take into account realistic levels of toxicant ingestion from multiple foods and supplements over the course of a given day — or week or month (especially given the fact that many products are typically consumed in quantities far greater than a manufacturer-set serving size).
  • Serving sizes are often set to quantities that are intentionally lower than anticipated actual daily consumption of a product (see bag of potato chips example below) —  and companies specifically set these lower quantities only in order to be in compliance with Prop 65 (or other serving size-related) standards.
  • On the other hand, Action Levels are relevant for any amount of a food or supplement product that may be consumed (any quantity of the food or supplement in question).
  • Action Levels are a better (more health-protective) measure as they take into account the total heavy metals content of all products consumed throughout the day (were there to be a federally-mandated, health protective Action Level for all ingested items).
  • If the Action Level for all items is protective of children’s health, one would never need to pay any attention to how much of a product a child consumes.
  • Action Levels are a more reasonable metric in light of the fact that all federal agencies agree there is no safe level of Lead exposure (especially for children, but truly for all humans).
  • If we are evaluating Lead exposure based on serving size, we are contradicting science by asserting that a certain amount of Lead is ok (within arbitrary limits that, again, are not protective of human health).
  • PPB (parts per billion/ ppb) measurements are a percentage (albeit a very small percentage) and apply to any quantity of any food or supplement product (tested or ingested).
  • If all ingested foods and supplements were evaluated by ppb content for heavy metals across the board (using the same scale for all types of ingested products), confusion over safety limits would be eliminated.
  • By retaining a structure of serving size-based exposure, our regulatory agencies are doing a disservice to consumers, and again, (especially) as all federal agencies (and scientists and medical experts) agree there is no safe level of Lead exposure.
  • For more discussion about serving size considerations (and why relying on “serving size” to limit toxicant exposure is not a relevant metric/ not a metric protective of human health), read this article.
• These “Action Levels” proposed in 2021 are the levels at which the scientific and medical community believe the manufacturer (or government) needs to take ACTION to fix the problem.
  • One “Action” would be for the manufacturer to take steps to reduce the levels of toxicants in the food or supplement product.
  • Another “Action” would be for the manufacturer to cease sales of the product until the product could be made safe.
  • Another “Action” would be for the manufacturer to inform the public that a specific food or supplement product has an unsafe level of the metal detected at-or-above the “Action Level” — making a highly-visible public announcement regarding which relevant batches of the product should be recalled/ no longer consumed.
• The Action Levels proposed with the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 were not arbitrary toxicant levels, but were proposed because they are the levels most protective of human health. However, the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 was not passed into law.
• Regardless of the fact the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 never passed into law — and it is therefore legal to have foods and supplements marketed for consumption by children test positive for Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, and Arsenic at-or-above these levels — these Action Levels still reflect the current (modern/ relevant) advice of the medical and scientific communities as levels both achievable by the industry and safeguards of infant and toddler health.
• Food and supplement industry lobbyists fought against formalizing these proposed “Action Levels” as a government standard, alleging the levels were unachievable.
• The list of safer choices (below) clearly demonstrate these Action Levels as achievable across a range of food and supplement types (vitamins, salt, flour, coffee, oatmeal, chia seeds, hemp seeds, soy milk, packaged fruit-based snacks, beverages, and more).
• The legitimacy of these levels as “Action Levels”/ “Levels of Concern” (even though they were not adopted as law) is mirrored by the legitimacy of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ level of concern for Lead in water, which is 1 ppb despite the FDA’s official “level of concern” for Lead in water being 15 ppb (you can read more about that here).

“Simply Not Achievable”

To reiterate: While the packaged, processed food industry would have consumers (and the government) believe the standards proposed in 2021 are unachievable, this industry position (an oft-rearticulated response to nearly every set of laboratory test results for food and supplements that we have published to date) is simply not true.

It is possible to make safer processed, packaged food products and supplements that fall well below the safety limits for toxicants proposed within the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021. To wit, the products listed below (the first section of the list below) tested “non-detect” for Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, and Arsenic — several even tested non-detect for Lead with the low threshold of detection being “less than 1.5 ppb.”

---

Below is an EXPANDING list of products (foods and supplements) 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).

More Key Points to Consider:

• There are almost no reasonable safety limits proposed for toxicant contamination (heavy metal contamination specifically) of foods and supplements consumed by adults (or by the general population) in the United States.
• Any available proposed safety thresholds (and guidance) for foods and supplements consumed by adults are not currently set at levels that are protective of human health, given practical/ actual consumption patterns of foods (vs. manufacturer-defined serving sizes).
  • The above point is especially important given children eat all foods, not just foods marketed for consumption by children (for example: Find me a pre-teen that won’t go through an entire 5-ounce/ 5-serving bag of potato chips in one sitting)!
• Our focus is (as always) on the health of children.
• By applying the standards proposed by the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 to all foods and supplements, we are working more in line with standards that protect human health (for all!) given all scientific and medical experts agree there is no safe level of Lead exposure for human beings.
• Said another way: You would never be eating a snack chip out of a bag and say to your 5-year-old child “this product is only marketed for consumption by adults, so you cannot eat it.” That would be ridiculous. Kids eat what we eat, so everything that goes into our bodies in an attempt to nourish us and support our health and well being should be appropriate for any age consumer (not just a demographic designated by the manufacturer based on irrelevant age group-related toxicity standards for a specific product or ingredient).
• Remember: There is no safe level of Lead exposure for human beings. Period.
  • This is a non-negotiable point that everyone in the scientific and medical community — everyone who researches Lead poisoning — agrees with.
