for those who aren’t clicking the article, they annoyingly don’t show the numbers, but here are the regulatory levels mentioned:
Federal Baby Food lead limits: 10 parts per billion.
California Baby Food lead limits: 6 parts per billion.
FDA Toothpaste lead limit: 10,000 ppb for flouride-free and 20,000 ppb for flouride toothpaste
None of the tested toothpastes exceeded the FDA limits
Washington state enacted a 1,000 part per billion law and several toothpastes exceeded that limit
Fun fact, the ingredient hydroxyapatite in toothpaste comes from cow bones
This site is ruining me, my brain went to pigpoopballs instead of parts per billion while reading ppb
