Found searching ‘“vital proteins” lawsuit’

Sued by an environmental nonprofit for failing to warn about the presence of lead and heavy metals as required by CA law. They settled.

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.

In the ’20s tho? Not rly

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

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Honestly you should assume all supplements are toxic and full of heavy metals, because that shit is virtually unregulated.

[–] OhVenus_Baby@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

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.
