Heavy metal contamination of protein powder is a real concern, here is how we select ingredients (hi pea protein!) and suppliers (hi Puris!) to help reduce the risk. Ritual Founder and CEO Kat Schneider and PURIS CEO, Tyler Lorenzen sat down to discuss the importance of traceability in the pea protein Industry. Ritual's Essential Protein features peas from PURIS, our supplier that provides  organically farmed regenerative peas  for our protein powder, sourced from North America. One of the reasons we love working with PURIS is their due diligence for testing heavy metal contamination. To date there is no pre-market safety approval required for supplements or protein powder. What does that mean? Third-party testing shows plant based protein powders are at an increased risk  for elevated levels of heavy metals. We know it's impossible to be 'heavy metal free' - that's why it's critical to partner with transparent suppliers like PURIS so that we can be transparent with you. Ritual not only third-party tests for 4 main heavy metals but we publish the results on our Certificate of Traceability for all to see. Don't believe us? Check it out for yourself 😉 #proteinpowder #heavymetals #wellness #healthandwellness #supplements #cleaningredients
