High Levels of Lead Found in Infowars Supplements

It looks as though Alex Jones may be making a more direct contribution to dumbing down the masses than previously thought. As most of you are aware, the guy known for memorable lines like, "I don't like em putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin' frogs gay," peddles more than dubious conspiracy theories — he hawks merch — including his own line of supplements.

Ironically for a man who promotes claims about all the nasty things "they're" putting in the water and the dangers of trace heavy metals in vaccines, it appears that some of his own products contain high levels of lead.

Is Alex Jones Peddling Lead-Tainted, Sperm-Killing Products? Toxic Heavy Metal Found in Two Infowars Supplements

But not all of Jones’s offerings are quite as harmless as essential oils or arabica beans. In fact, new research commissioned by the Center for Environmental Health (CEH) has determined that two products sold by Jones contain potentially dangerous levels of the heavy metal lead, which is universally known to be harmful to the body.

“The chemical was found in the Infowars Caveman Paleo Formula and the Info Wars Myco-ZX supplements. People who take the daily recommended dose of the Formula product would ingest more than twice the daily limit for lead under California law. People who take the Myco-ZX product would ingest more than six times the daily limit for lead under California law,” a CEH release said.

.....

CEH has announced that it has filed “legal notice” against Infowars for violation of California’s law governing public exposure to toxic chemicals. That law, passed in 1986, is known as Proposition 65. It “requires businesses to notify Californians about significant amounts of chemicals in the products they purchase, in their homes or workplaces, or that are released into the environment,” according to the state’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment. OEHHA lists lead as potentially causing cancer, developmental toxicity, male reproductive toxicity and female reproductive toxicity.

I guess the take away here is don't drink the kool-aid or the bone broth drink mix.

While that may be true, I'd still like to know why conspiracy sites, are selling users health crap?

On what grounds would I trust their medical opinion, and not to mention, where is the tie in? Why Supplements?

Even the prepper food storage crap C2C peddles is more inline than the supplements it and infowars peddles...

Money grubbing is one thing I understand business needs to gain revenue, but why is it supplements?

No one is a Doctor I'd like operate, or touch me, so why would I trust what they say about these little mystery objects?

Not sure why they sell those supplements, maybe it's a targeted product for a demographic. People live long lives without taking supplements, but they might be a good thing in moderation. I don't mind them selling stuff to make money and it's a whole lot better than what CNN does which is fabrication news their listeners and advertisers agree with only because it fits their desires. CNN is like news vampires slowly turning their listeners into shadows of their former selves. Now they all hate instead of the other thing.

Nobody (is forced), has to buy anything though from either AJ, or the advertiser's products on the MSM though.

PS as soon as I read the thread title about lead being found in AJ's products I knew it was total baloney.

Don't talk about AJ like that! He's loaded with lead and can wreck you in seconds.

I think everyone is missing the real point, AJ is loading up all of his supporters with lead so that one day when he’s discovered the key to Alchemy they can turn it all into gold; ultimately providing him and his supporters with more gold than the banksters allowing him to win the financial war against the globalists.

CNN is really the alt fake news and ATS contains more accurate content than the CNN website.

It also contains more bull#.

Alt doesn’t mean fake, it means Alternative.

Mainstream media wants you to discard and think of alternative news as fake. ATS likely has more views than CNN.com

And produces just as much garbage as the rest of the media.

Every News Agency is propaganda, has an agenda and is bias towards whatever side of the line or supporting cause they subscribe to - be it the "Mainstream" media or the "alternative" news agencies.

Every network, every blog, every personal profile is exactly the same, the model has been the same 50 years ago,and it is exactly the same now - the only difference is that we have "new" words to describe it, like this whole "FAKE NEWS" that only came into mainstream accord around the time as Trump's election (I am not linking anything to anyone, just when the term came in).

It's just the way it is.

Find me one place that is unbiased, non buzz word, non profiling, non line leaning site - It would be hard as no money is involved and the articles would only be 2 or 3 lines in length.

Sorry you feel that way. I look forward to the stimulating conversation and evidence presented on ATS.

I know AJ supporters can't see it, but his connection to Trump is not a good thing. It makes Trump seem desperate for followers. Which he is....

The Democrats only wish they had loyal followers like Trump.

You mean like the thousands young Russians in St. Petersburg that have 5-10 social media accounts each?

Or the thousands of automated Twitter bots posing as real Trump fans?

Or the KKK members who represent the worst side of America?

Or the Neo Nazi's that spit in the face of everything our great grandparents fought in WWII?

You mean those people?

And to top it off, politicians should have "supporters" not "followers".

You know who has "followers"?

Scam artists and megalomaniac cult leaders. Those people have "followers".

Tsk, tsk , tsk. You actually believe that Russian influence bullcrap!? Our world is lost! Got to the nearest safe zone and pick up your coloring book, beanie babie and Trumps "Art of the Deal".

a reply to: thepixelpusher

No thanks, I hear the ghost writer that actually wrote that book for Trump regrets it. )))

The fake ATS, the left happy slaves buying on Amazon trying to prevent anyone from supporting the expanding, independent real news.
I'm laughing at this parroting. You are obsolete, not AJ.

It's gay frogs all the way down, that and Alex Jones is an A Grade Asshat.

The supplement industry is probably the largest, basically unregulated industry in the US and maybe the world. From being the source of performance enhancing drugs (anabolics) to psychedelics, to uppers, downers, etc, and then the nutrient supplements, This is a HUGE grey market for a whole host of chemicals that could cause serious harm to the user.

I'm wondering how much the supplement industry contributes to congress yearly.

Not nearly as much as big pharma, but you keep trusting them.

God people are so dumb.

a reply to: smarterthanyou

Big pharma is regulated though. That poster has a point in that the supplement industry is unregulated. It is a multi-billion dollar snake oil industry. At least most pharmaceuticals help you and if a pharma company is caught lacing their drugs with something foreign that isn't supposed to be in the recipe, they get in a LOT of trouble. I should know. I work for a pharmaceutical manufacturing company. The FDA was here all last week inspecting some of our products so we could release them for sale.
