Mercury, Cadmium, Arsenic and Lead. All of them. Saying that Chinese herbs

don't have a heavy metal problem is shutting the eyes to the reality. We may

not need to worry about pesticides in granules.but certainly about heavy

metals. For example, e jiao is extremely often polluted with quite high

doses of mercury.

>>>>Simon a asked Samuel (qualli herbs) about

these a while ago and he provided me with certificate of analysis that

individually rated mercury, cadmium, arsenic and lead. These were only on a

few herbs so i do not know if they do these on all their herbs.

 

Can you share a little more of what you have been finding? what types of

levels etc.

Thanks Alon
