Got Lead? FREE Testing Of Consumable Products

Today’s health-conscious society has witnessed a gradual increase in the production of consumable products that assist in achieving a healthier life. Unfortunately, testing the contents of these products sometimes reveals just the opposite. Some products in the marketplace today contain contaminated ingredients which, if consumed as directed, can cause harm to the person ingesting the product. Lead is one such chemical that is often found in these products.

The Environmental Research Center (ERC) believes that the potential dangers lurking behind labels of so-called health-enhancing products should be known prior to purchasing that product. ERC is dedicated to identifying products in the marketplace that contain potentially harmful amounts of lead and works hard to protect California consumers by locating the products, testing for contamination, and working with the companies directly to bring about change in the dietary supplement and nutrition industry.

The old saying “You are what you eat” has never been more true than it is today. ERC seeks to help you know what you are eating before exposing yourself to products that might contain lead, a chemical known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm and birth defects. The purpose of the Got Lead? Program is to give consumers a way to test products for contamination for FREE. To participate in the Got Lead? Program, simply go to our web page and let us know the names of the products you are consuming. ERC will then confirm your online submission, analyze the products submitted, purchase and test the products if warranted, and provide you the results of our findings – All for FREE.
