Lab Tests for Ginseng, Fish Oil & St. John's Wort
Today Dr. Oz gave a free 24 hour pass to consumerlab to read test results for 3 products only, after that they want you to pay to see information about other products. You give first name, email and password. Here's a few I jotted down that tested poorly.
Ginseng
Imperial Elixir Korean White = 3.1 mcg lead per serving and 5.4ppm of quintozene (pesticide
Nature's Plus = 1.4mcg lead
Bluebonnet = only 75.4% of claimed ginsenosides
NSI = only 75.9% "
True Nature = only 60.3% "
Fish Oil
Master Omega 3 = spoilage, TOTOX of 54.4
Natural Factors = 83.3% of EPA
Now Neptune Krill = 79.1% of EPA, 78.4% of total omega3, plus spoilage of 57.4
"PetMeds" Super Omega 3 = exceeded allowed PCBs
St. John's Wort
Nature's Sunshine = .18 mcg cadmium (per gram)
Standard Process = .32 "
Solaray = .86 ", plus 1.1-2.2mcg lead
Free Life Bepeze = 22.6% of claimed hypericin
LA Naturals = 36.2% "
Here's the link to Dr. Oz to sign up for free 24 hour pass, if anyone's interested.
