Product Purity Data
Most everything grown on the planet containers trace amounts of heavy metals. It can be difficult to decode what the numbers actually mean! That is why we’ve created this info page :)
It is our top objective to create effective, pure, and healing products… and we will continue to do anything we can to create the purest products possible!
We test our products regularly and continue to improve and purify in any way we can. We are committed to making products that are not only effective, but safe! We promise to never stop keeping that our top priority.
Based on one serving of Tooth Puddy (1000 milligrams or 1 gram), the amount of lead per serving would be 0.06 micrograms; similar levels to butter, bone broth, pinto beans, and pears. 0.06 micrograms is equaled to 0.00006 milligrams. (This is based off of 28 servings per jar and many people get double that, which would make the amount ingested even smaller!) This would mean that a child could eat 36 servings of puddy per day and still be below the daily limit of 2.2 micrograms. Females of childbearing age could eat over 146 servings and still be below the daily limit or 8.8 micrograms.

This chart compares the micrograms of lead *per serving* in our Tooth Puddy, Celtic sea salt, and other natural food items;
Some important things to note;
One ppm (part mer million) is equaled to one microgram / gram. This is why it is crucial to consider how many grams of something you will be eating. Food items are usually eaten in quantities of many grams, hence the need for them to be purer. Things that are consumed in large quantities (like foods, beverages, and water) need to be purer in contaminants because of the amount consumed. Things like salt and spices and supplements have higher allowed amounts because they are consumed in small quantities.

Also, bioavailability of contaminants is an important thing to consider. Studies have shown that calcium inhibits the absorption of lead and cadmium. Click here to read the study!
We wanted to create this COA comparison chart to give our customers a reference point so they can understand what “normal” levels look like. These are companies that we respect and we are not sharing this as a criticism, but as a reference point. Many people are not aware of what “normal” numbers are, which is absolutely understandable- and is why we made this chart.
