I have always wondered this...Some ayurvedic and chinese herbal supplements have heavy metals in them

but are tested and have "heavy metals are within permissable limits" stated on the label

i was just wondering whether taking these type of products even when the metals are 'within permissable limits' is safe?

because we take so much drugs already and stuff

its just something ive wondered...

I would say not take them because there are no standards of purity. I've been to India, and China is putting lead and other things in their products (including ingestibles) and being nailed for doing this every day. And I have taken Chinese Herbs and Ayevedic medicine. Since CF'er's may be chemically sensitive, metals are not a great idea -- who knows what alloys are in there too. My doctor would not let me get a mercury filling even -- she says it can set me all the way back. And I want a mercury filling because otherwise the tooth has to come out (wisdom tooth). But the thought of getting worse is scaring me into having the tooth pulled.

something about a lot of these herbal supplements that a lot of people don't realize is that these are not controlled by the FDA, the FDA doesn't recognise any benifits from them. many of the straight vitamins you can get are for sure legit but if you aren't careful you can get levels of the stuff so high that it becomes toxic, if this is something you are wanting to try to do to help make sure your dr knows what you are taking and how much of it you are taking
