Survey Data on Lead in Women's and Children's Vitamins

In early 2007, FDA became aware of reports of elevated lead levels in certain vitamins, which became an issue of concern to FDA, Congress, and the public.

Check here to see if your brand is on the list. http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/pbvitami.html

Don't buy vitamins from any company that can't prove purity testing. You'll notice Shaklee is NOT on this list, but GNC, Kirkland, Nature's Sunshine, Stuart Prenatal, etc. are listed. As a reminder.... Shaklee performs over 83,000 separate tests for purity, safety and effectiveness on their nutritional products alone each year.
