Prop 65 Overview

California Prop 65 is California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. Companies are required to place a warning label on any product they sell within the state of California if it exceeds the level that the State has established as risk free for a list of over eight hundred chemicals, including heavy metals naturally found in soil and water. This proposition was adopted by California to include warnings for any chemicals which can be known to cause cancer, birth defects or reproductive harm.

Certain listed chemicals are widely distributed through the environment in air, soil, water, and rocks. As a result, these types of chemicals are often found in commonly eaten foods and throughout the food supply even though these chemicals are not intentionally added to foods or nutritional supplements. The list of chemicals includes cadmium and lead as well as Vitamin A. They are naturally-occurring elements that can be present in soil. This soil might be organic, but cannot be cleared of the naturally occurring elements, so traces of it can be transferred to crops.

The standard for lead and cadmium, under prop 65, are specific to the state of California. It is more stringent than level proposed by the US FDA (The Food and Drug Administration). These prop 65 warnings exist throughout California in common places such as restaurants, stores, hotels, and on nutritional supplements.
