Lead Safe Mama LLC Lab Testing: Armra Unflavored Colostrum

Friday - September 20, 2024

Hi all!

In the interest of getting some new Lead Safe Mama, LLC Laboratory Food Testing GoFundMes launched quickly - we are publishing these fundraising campaigns without the full detailed narrative but will be adding more narrative details (including links to the published lab reports once the testing has been completed) over the coming days and weeks (via updates to this campaign).

If you are interested in learning more about the community-collaborative / community-funded laboratory food testing (testing food for the following toxicants: Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, & Arsenic) we are doing (through Lead Safe Mama, LLC - a unique, community collaborative, woman-owned, small business based in Portland, Oregon - a small business with a focus on childhood Lead poisoning prevention and consumer goods safety) - please check out some of our other GoFundMe campaigns, which have all of the details - including a detailed budget for how the funds will be spent for each food we are raising money to test.

Here's a link to an article from Consumer Reports Magazine - an article that discusses some collaborative follow up we worked on with CR in response to some of the early food testing done by Lead Safe Mama, LLC: https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/lesser-evil-serenity-kids-cassava-puffs-high-lead-levels-a2654657249/
