These guys didn't reply to any of my emails so I stopped using them.

That said, how long would it even take for heavy metals to build up in our bodies from using bacopa? Are we talking months of daily use or days/weeks?

These guys didn't reply to any of my emails so I stopped using them.

On the other hand, I sent an email past midnight their time and received a response less than an hour later. Can't speak for their bacopa, but I've bought other things from MN and both products and customer support have been fine.

Yeah, wondering about this as well. I haven't heard about any cases of heavy metal poisoning from Bacopa, but I'm trying my best to be careful around unknown pills.

What is this?

[–]SteveBraun 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I emailed them with exactly the same question a few months ago. This was the response at the time:

Hello Steve,

I apologise for the delay. We are in the process of moving locations and this has led to some delays on our part.

Our manufacturers do test and certify that our Bacopa is well within the safe heavy metal limits but their certificates of analysis are for internal use only; our third-party analysis on the Bacopa won't be ready for another 4-6 weeks at this point as we are having a number of new products assayed.

Kind Regards,

Raf

According to that email, their third-party analysis should have been done by now. Let us know what they say when they respond!

Yeah, sure thing. If you have any experience with this brand, would you say it is safe? No weird side effects or anything?

    Go on their forums, ask BushidoBadBoy directly (he's the guy at the company that makes their formulations).

    As far as I know they are a reputable, but small company so just wait a bit. They'll get back to you.
