    This is Vital Proteins brilliant response to being taken to court over heavy metal and “foreign materials” contamination in their products.

      Do you have any supporting links? I saw a reddit post saying something similar but I cant find a real article or support. Either way I am returning the product.

          Seems like a labelling issue due to california laws rather than legitimate ingredient flaws with toxic or heavy metals.

              To some degree I totally agree. If you don’t find 3rd party lab verified then I’d be skeptical. Not just any 3rd party. It has to be from legitimate Orgs and trusted vendors.

              I’m unsure how much people look at labels now days, unless you have a health issue requiring it. The levels of say vitamins manufacturers add to even like biotin or other vitamins/supplements. Thousands and sometimes 10s of thousands more than a daily dose your body can consume. Which means your kidneys or liver have to process that out. Things are toxic in high doses.

              Its all about balance. A lot of these supplements are way way out of balance. It’s a shame, businesses or people can’t be reputable.

          prop 65 is a useless law that goes against known science about hazard limits, causing manufacturers to have to label nearly everything with warnings. if a company is violating that law, it usually doesn’t mean much.

      I’m sure they definitely didn’t think removing all those pesky “foreign materials” and next-gen metals from they products…
