We at Banyan Botanicals apologize for any inconvenience or confusion the recent release of the JAMA study may have caused our customers. Your health and well-being is at the heart of everything we do. We take rigorous measures to ensure the safety and efficacy of our products – from the USDA certified organic herbs we source to the quality control and safety protocols we employ every step of the way. With an impeccable product safety record, we stand by each and every Banyan product and assure you that all of our products – including those mentioned in the study – are safe when used as suggested. We test our herbs and products for lead, arsenic and mercury using independent U.S. laboratories to ensure that they are within the safety guidelines stipulated by the American National Standards Institute. We also want to let you know that we are here to answer any questions or concerns you have regarding the study, about our quality control process, our products, suggested use or Ayurveda in general.  We welcome your inquiries and look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Kevin Casey
CEO and Co-founder, Banyan Botanicals
