California Prop 65
What is California Prop 65?
Established within the state of California in 1986, Prop 65 requires the state to keep an updated list of both natural and synthetic chemicals that may cause cancer or reproductive harm. While the sale of these chemicals is not prohibited, California businesses (grocery stores, restaurants, hospitals, etc.) are legally obligated to include the appropriate warnings on their labels when working with consumers. Prop 65 is only required under California law.
Should these warnings concern me?
California's Prop 65 standards are often more strict than federal standards; this law was established to allow Californians to make informed and cautious health decisions. Prop 65 maintains a list of roughly 800 chemicals classified as carcinogens and reproductive toxins, many of which are found in commonly eaten foods (Vitamin A, in fact, is included on this list when taken in higher doses). A warning does not necessarily indicate that the product is unsafe, and retailers outside of California might not include these warning labels if they are not required to do so. The classification of a chemical under Prop 65 may well be the result of laboratory animal testings, a method which is not always reliable.
What should I do?
In the event that you are concerned about the effects of a particular chemical, we recommend that you complete independent research and contact the manufacturer with any and all questions. Please keep in mind that even if a brand does not include a warning on their label, this is not a guarantee that the product is free of all chemicals.
