Lab Testing

Every batch of Fodease is tested by an independent lab. Here are the results, in full.

Tested by Alkemist Labs (Garden Grove, CA), an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory, A2LA certificate #3851.01. Method: Heavy Metals USP <561>, four-panel, by ICP-MS.

Analyte Result USP limit Outcome
Arsenic Not detected (below 0.010 µg/g) 2 µg/g Pass
Cadmium Not detected (below 0.010 µg/g) 0.5 µg/g Pass
Mercury Not detected (below 0.010 µg/g) 1 µg/g Pass
Lead Not detected (below 0.020 µg/g) 5 µg/g Pass

What "not detected" means

It means the lab looked and found nothing above the smallest amount its instruments can measure. It does not mean we are claiming zero. No lab can prove zero. What we can say is that all four analytes came back below the detection limit, which puts them 50 to 250 times under the USP limits.

Testing going forward

Results are posted per batch. The batch number is printed on the bottom of your jar. If you have a jar from a batch that is not listed here yet, email contact@fodease.com and we will send you the report.
