Northampton, MA (11/12/19) – Perfect Type II Collagen (Cartilage) is now the world’s first 100% bovine cartilage collagen to receive the Glyphosate Residue Free Certification from the Detox Project.

As glyphosate is the most commonly used herbicide in the world AND a probable human carcinogen (International Agency for Research on Cancer), it is crucial that consumers limit their exposure to glyphosate.

In order to receive the Glyphosate Residue Free Certification from the Detox Project, Perfect Type II Collagen (Cartilage) had to be tested by an ISO 17025 accredited lab and show no glyphosate residue down to the U.S.’s government-recognized limits of detection for food and supplements, 0.01 ppm (parts per million). In addition, glyphosate testing on this product must be done twice a year to continue to qualify for the Glyphosate Residue Free certification.

A Commitment to the Purest Ingredients on the Planet

Perfect Supplements is passionate about searching the planet for all natural, nutrient dense, ethically sourced superfood ingredients. Perfect Type 2 Collagen is made from 100% New Zealand bovine cartilage and packed with nutrients and now the Glyphosate Residue Free Certification reassures consumers that it is free of glyphosate.

“We were so excited to be the first company to receive Glyphosate Residue Free Certification on our Perfect Hydrolyzed Collagen and now couldn’t be more thrilled to have our Perfect Type II Collagen (Cartilage) certified as well. I sincerely hope that other companies follow our lead, get certified and join in the efforts to remove glyphosate from our food supply” states Kristen Morelli, founder of Perfect Supplements.

In addition to the Glyphosate Residue Free Certification, Perfect Type II Collagen (Cartilage) is also fully tested for heavy metals with the full lab results publicly available on the site for all to see.

Glyphosate Found in 93% of People Tested

The issue with glyphosate in our food supply is real and only getting worse. A recent study found that 93% of Americans tested had glyphosate in their urine. Even more alarming, a study tracking individuals from 1993 to 2016 found glyphosate levels increased by over 500% during that time period.

To Be Safe, Look For 3^rd Party Certifications and Full Transparency

Morelli explains, “Part of the Glyphosate Residue Free Certification is a requirement to continue to test our Collagen at various points throughout the year. This ongoing 3 ^rd party testing helps the consumer understand, when they see the Glyphosate Residue Free Seal on a supplement, they can feel very safe enjoying that product.”

Perfect Supplements encourages consumers to look for the Glyphosate Residue Free Seal when shopping for collagen. Here is the seal they should look for –

In addition, it is important to see full heavy metal testing on supplements as well. All of this can be found on the Perfect Type II Collagen product page .

Morelli concludes, “When it comes to supplements, what is NOT present in the product, can be as important as what is in the product. After all, consumers taking collagen are looking to improve their health, the last thing they want to do is ingest glyphosate and heavy metals.”
