Is the product formulated with ingredients that are mercury free and do not come from China or India?

I contacted Optimox to inquire and was told that it does not contain mercury, and that they test the product for metals. If it is contaminated, it gets tossed. It is manufactured in California.

The label nor the insert pamphlet state whether it is manufacturer in China or India. It only states that it is manufacturer for Optimox Corporation, Torrance, CA 90510-3378- www.optimox.xom 1(800)223-1601

Louise,I didn't know the answer to your questions so I called the company. The woman I talked to sounded a bit horrified when I asked if their products contained mercury. Her response was "Absolutely not!" She went on to add it does not contain gluten, dairy products, soy, or animal products either. Everything is made here in the US. I'm glad you asked, because I learned something as well.

This product was recommended to me by Dr. David Brownstein, a doctor with a reputation for promoting the best quality health products to treat thyroid problems. The product helped me within 2 weeks to end brain fog. It has been helping me regrow the hair lost on my eyebrows and stop the thinning of my hair on my head. There is nothing on the label to indicate it has anything to do with the garbage sold in the USA by China. Dr. Brownstein goes to great lengths to protect his reputation, so I trust him. He is much like an uncle I had, who treated his patients using only nutrition. He comes across to me as having the same integrity as my uncle.

There is nothing on the label saying it contains lead or mercury. It does says it complies with all standards from the US FCC.

I cannot say for sure. However, I do not believe it could be sold in the US (and particularly CA) if it were not lead free.

Every item we sell is imported from Mexico, Spain or Portugal. This particular item is from Mexico. It is lead free, FDA approved as safe for food and is double oven fired glazed.

Sorry, I have no idea. I have the gold label also, and the ingredients are the same.

No it is imported from the orient and if you really must know I do not recommend this product as the claims of solving cancer are somehow untrue.

It is a product of Spain. There is NO plastic liner. On the tin, it says "BPA- FREE Lining. Also says "NON GMO PROJECT VERIFIED" I cut thelid out and can see inside the tin. NO Plastic Liner

I read the bottle and can't find anything that says the ingredients are from anywhere other than the US so I assume they are...hope this helps.

The product is made in the USA. Mostly organic ingredients. Uses WHOLE food processing. Not sure about their testing protocols for something like lead. Not sure how lead would get into a natural product. I do know that they are considered a very reputable company. I trust their products at this time.

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.

Neither the box nor the container list the ingredients. However ZINC is the reason this and all other denture powders have been removed from the shelves in the USA.

Carlson says it's free of detrimental levels of mercury, lead, cadmium and PCBs and 28 other properties. Hope this is of help. I've also read that squid oil is a better choice to avoid contaminants.

The container lists the ingredients but does not list where they are from. The product itself is Mfg. in the U.S.A.. Even the plastic bucket they come in is made in the U.S.

This does not have any reference to China. It says "Product of India" and is distributed by Terrasoul Superfoods of Fort Worth, TX. As far as I can see, it does not say what the country of origin is for the packaging, but it is labeled as a Fair Trade product, and the packaging appears to be quite "green". You're welcome!

Zinc not listed on box as an ingredient and I've been using it for 38 years with no problems.
