Requires California Prop 65 labeling, does not label.
If you think you're getting a nice clean organic protein you can feel good about, think again. This is one of the most contaminated proteins you can get, and that's not just from the requirement that Now is supposed to follow in California by including the Prop 65 labeling on the label, which it ignores, but from independent testing that has shown them to be among the worst offenders for most contaminated protein powder product, especially the organic version ironically. If Now would like to reply to this, please include the actual results of an independently verifiable, 3rd party analysis for 30g of randomly selected Organic Pea Protein powder, not using your internal lab, and hold that up to other suppliers of organic pea protein. Don't reply that you follow GMP, that you're organic certified, or that Prop 65 goes too far and is confusing. If your source of organic pea protein does not display their testing results for all to verify, then they're just hiding data because it makes them look bad and costs them money. If they truly cared they would be competitive to provide products with the least possible contamination of heavy metals, chemicals, and be proud to share that data.
