Do you test your products for heavy metals?Updated 2 months ago

Absolutely! Quality of material is at the core of what we do.


All of the qualified ingredients that go into our LEANFIT® products are tested for heavy metals and other contaminants, and only those that pass very high purity standards are approved and used in production. Ingredients are sourced only from trusted suppliers who consistently meet our quality standards. 

All LEANFIT® products are manufactured in Canada with only pure, premium-quality ingredients in a certified GMP-NSF facility registered with Health Canada.

A few important things to note:
- Health Canada has established maximum allowable limits for heavy metals in NHP's, including protein powders, to ensure consumer safety.

- Heavy metals such as lead and cadmium are naturally occuring in soil, water, and air, and trace amound can end up in plant-based ingredients naturally. 

- Health Canada limits are based on long-term scientific research and real-world consumption data. Prop 65 sets its thresholds based on assumed daily exposure over a lifetime and does lean on the side of overly cautious. 
- Our manufacturing facility is required to comply with these regulations, and products exceeding the establishes limits cannot be released for sale in Canada.
