We understand that the kratom lab testing is most important thing in kratom business. We at the evergreen tree, put public health as the number one priority. Everyone deserves to have a product that is lab tested, free of contamination, free of heavy metals, and of course, has high product quality and correct ingredient levels of kratom alkaloids. See About Us.
To ensure our product safety and quality, we test every batch of our incoming kratom and retest them whenever there is reasonable concern. We post our lab testing results here regularly to gain public confidence. Every buyer is ensured that they will receive a safe product.
We do 3 types of kratom lab testing:
- Biological: Testing for APC/Coliforms, Salmonella, E. coli, Staphylococcus, and Yeast/Mold
- Heavy Metal: Testing for Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead, Mercury, and Nickel
- Identify/Quantify: Testing for Alkaloid/Kavalactone identification, Alkaloid/Kavalactone percentage, and Alkaloid/Lactone lineup
Nickel level explained:
According to WebMD, a daily dose of less than 1 mg of nickel is safe unless you have specific medical conditions. There are people taking nickel as a supplement, and 4000 ppb means 0.004 mg in one gram. See conversion HERE. So, there is less than 1 mg of nickel in 250 grams of our kratom. Recent FDA alerts about kratom containing high nickel levels are based on the false assumption that people consume more than 250 grams of kratom daily over the long term. This new FDA testing standard on nickel is misleading.
Alkaloid Level explained:
According to many labs specialized in kratom testing, the average alkaloid level of kratom powder on the US market from Indonesia is around 1.3%. Only 2 out of 100 tested at 1.8%, and 10 out of 100 tested at 1.6%. Our kratom tests at an average of 1.7%, above average. We test every batch and post results. Buyers need to ask for a third-party test certificate with a lab seal, not self-made documents without seals.
