Dangerous Pesticides levels in Celestial Seasonings Tea products

Per the Examiner.com article dated 3/22/13 by Roger ZieglerOriginal Article: http://www.examiner.com/article/dangerously-high-pesticide-levels-found-celestial-seasonings-teasEmerald City Clinic has removed Celestial Teas from our shelves, and we encourage you to do the same. Recent tests conducted by EuroFins (www.eurofins.com/en.aspx), an independent analysis company, have found that 91% of the Celestial Seasonings teas contained pesticide levels higher than the US Federal Limits.These tests were initiated by Glaucus Research Group out of California, who do have a great influence on short-sale stocks. They do provide a full disclaimer that they will, in fact, benefit greatly if Hain Celestial (the mother company) stock plummets (which it has after this research). In addition to Celestial Teas, Glaucus Research exposed numerous other products of Hain Celestial as being falsely marketed.

We do believe that we all need to do our part as consumers to push the market toward organic, pesticide free produce for an overall healthier world.What tea do we suggest? It seems that similar tests were run on Twinings Teas, and they were given an A in sustainability.The Emerald City Team
