What is California Prop 65?
Proposition 65 was passed in 1986 with the intention of increasing accountability and preventing people and companies from dumping toxic material in the State of California waters. It is known as "The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986," and it enforces the idea that people have the right to know about the presence of dangerous chemicals in their food and water. Chemicals recognized by the State of California to contain carcinogens or cause reproductive harm are subject to the requirements of Proposition 65. One of the most cited chemicals is lead, which naturally occurs in soil, water, and the ocean. According to Proposition 65, the content of lead has particularly stringent regulations, requiring a warning if its presence exceeds 0.5 micrograms in any given product per day. This is nearly 1,000 times lower than the amount known to cause reproductive harm according to the federal government.

Why Does Inspired Nutraceuticals Products Have a Prop 65 Warning?
For State of California Only—because of the unique nature of the California Prop 65 law—we display a warning on only the orders that are shipped to State of California only, regardless of what items are on the order. This is the same warning that is found posted on hotels, stores, gas stations, airports, public buildings and virtually every business throughout the State of California.

This law only applies to the state of California only. Every other state complies with federal limits, and other countries abide by international World Health Organization limits. Our products are third-party lab-tested to ensure quality, safety, and consistency.

However, it would be virtually impossible to test every product we have for all 800+ substances on the California Proposition 65 list. For this reason, out of an abundance of caution, we place the Prop 65 warning on every order we ship to California.
