  • don’t have the exact numbers but in the United States we have lowered by a percent or so or more the allowable heavy metals and such because of polluted soil not naturally occurring ones and how it is impossible with current technology to remove such impurities

    the cannabis industry in the US has stricter rules and allows fewer heavy metals than is allowed in the food we consume with more stringent testing being required by third party labs

    lot of spices just like tobacco for example are grown in India where industry are able to pollute the soils more with less government oversight leading to fake vanilla extract which is done with green chemistry to be a cleaner product as is synthetic nicotine (this does not include Metatine which is not a synthetic but more a nicotine alternative replacement and is not safe or healthier)

    heavy metals and pollutants in food is very much a ginormous issue with nothing being done except lowering the standards to match our current predicament just like we solve our other problems

    agree about the natural levels in soil but that is not an issue as you stated but the concern is the high percentage that is allowed and is in there because of human activities

    gotta keep lowering the bar so we stay ahead of the issues

    (am in the industry too)
