They're also "hiding" this information from OSHA, as stated in the article.


Not if it’s below regulatory threshold. Which they seemed to say it was in the article (they said it’s below EPA threshold, so I assume that means the OSHA threshold too).

The article never says how much they detected. I can only assume it’s because it’s a nothing amount. If it was significant they would have been saying how much. It’s hard to take the article seriously as a result. We have crazy sensitive tests now, they do nothing in the article to show it’s not just another story about how sensitive testing is these days.

Most are in the range of 100X allowable in drinking water in in a liter of the powder. Seems minor.


*100X allowable in a liter of drinking water in a liter of the power
