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 Quote
