Internationally accredited heavy metals testing services just launched by the Health Ranger's food science laboratory (CWC Labs)


Heavy metals testing

(NaturalNews) At long last, we are now officially announcing the availability of heavy metals analysis and nutritive minerals analysis services at my laboratory, CWC Labs. This announcement is for commercial clients and health care professionals who have five or more samples to analyze, but we will be launching testing services for individuals in just a few weeks.

After two years of intense compliance effort, my laboratory was recently awarded ISO 17025 accreditation -- the highest international standard of laboratory excellence. Now, we're ready to test your products for heavy metals and nutritive minerals, using state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation (ICP-MS) capable of sub-ppb (parts per billion) sensitivity for most elements.

Right now, we can test your:

• Finished food products
• Beverages
• Raw materials
• Dietary supplements
• Fertilizers
• Protein powders
• Personal care products
• Cosmetics
• Compost
• Environmental samples
• Water samples

Each test measures your sample for parts per billion concentrations of all the following metals, minerals and elements:

Aluminum
Magnesium
Iron
Potassium
Zinc
Silver
Arsenic
Cadmium
Cobalt
Chromium
Cesium
Copper
Molybdenum
Nickel
Lead
Selenium
Strontium
Uranium
Vanadium
Gold (on demand, special procedures)

NOTE: We can also test for other elements on demand, using other methodologies. For those who need it, we can also do isotopic ratio analysis of various elements, including elements with radioactive isotopes.



Privacy-protected testing means we don't know what your product is

To test your products or raw materials, we don't need to know your product name or brand name. When you send samples for testing, you label them with unique numbers, and we use that same ID to report the results back to you.

Our testing prices are very competitive, especially given our extreme accuracy and expanded list of elements (analytes). Contact us via this contact form at CWClabs.com, and we'll send you our services and pricing PDFs.

We offer 5-day and 10-day turnaround testing. If you have a serious testing emergency, we can actually test your product in just one day, but it's very expensive for rush turnaround (for all sorts of reasons involving lab workflow, instrument calibrations and so on).

Well water testing services coming soon

We've already had a huge number of people interested in personal well water testing. That service isn't available yet, but it will be in a few weeks (and I'll announce it here on Natural News).

Also, in case you're wondering, no we can't test your urine or blood for heavy metals. However, in the future we may expand our offerings to accept urine and hair samples from naturopaths, chiropractors or clinical detox centers. (It's important to have a health professional who can interpret your results and help you design a dietary strategy that reduces your exposure to toxic elements.)

Pesticide testing coming soon, too...

Later this summer, we will also be announcing comprehensive pesticide testing services, covering a large number of chemical pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.

This service, based on LC/MS-TOF instrumentation, can be used to detect a vast array of pesticide chemicals in food, water, beverages and environmental samples. It can also test for pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, recreational drugs, phytochemicals, veterinary drugs and a lot more.

About the author:Mike Adams (aka the "Health Ranger") is a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com) and a globally recognized scientific researcher in clean foods. He serves as the founding editor of NaturalNews.com and the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation. Adams is also highly proficient in running liquid chromatography, ion chromatography and mass spectrometry time-of-flight analytical instrumentation.

Adams is a person of color whose ancestors include Africans and Native American Indians. He's also of Native American heritage, which he credits as inspiring his "Health Ranger" passion for protecting life and nature against the destruction caused by chemicals, heavy metals and other forms of pollution.

Adams is the founder and publisher of the open source science journal Natural Science Journal, the author of numerous peer-reviewed science papers published by the journal, and the author of the world's first book that published ICP-MS heavy metals analysis results for foods, dietary supplements, pet food, spices and fast food. The book is entitled Food Forensics and is published by BenBella Books.

In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.

In addition to his lab work, Adams is also the (non-paid) executive director of the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (CWC), an organization that redirects 100% of its donations receipts to grant programs that teach children and women how to grow their own food or vastly improve their nutrition. Through the non-profit CWC, Adams also launched Nutrition Rescue, a program that donates essential vitamins to people in need. Click here to see some of the CWC success stories.

With a background in science and software technology, Adams is the original founder of the email newsletter technology company known as Arial Software. Using his technical experience combined with his love for natural health, Adams developed and deployed the content management system currently driving NaturalNews.com. He also engineered the high-level statistical algorithms that power SCIENCE.naturalnews.com, a massive research resource featuring over 10 million scientific studies.

Adams is well known for his incredibly popular consumer activism video blowing the lid on fake blueberries used throughout the food supply. He has also exposed "strange fibers" found in Chicken McNuggets, fake academic credentials of so-called health "gurus," dangerous "detox" products imported as battery acid and sold for oral consumption, fake acai berry scams, the California raw milk raids, the vaccine research fraud revealed by industry whistleblowers and many other topics.

Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.

In addition to his activism, Adams is an accomplished musician who has released over a dozen popular songs covering a variety of activism topics.
