Some protein powders, shakes contain high lead levels, report suggests

(NewsNation) — A new report shows that some popular protein powders and shakes on the market contain unsafe levels of lead and other metals.

In findings published by Consumer Reports, the team analyzed 23 protein powders and ready-to-drink shakes and found that more than two-thirds of the products contained more lead in a single serving than their experts say is safe to consume in a day, some by more than 10 times.

CR advised consumers look out for, or limit their usage of, the following affected products: • Naked Nutrition's Vegan Mass Gainer powder • Huel's Black Edition protein powder • Garden of Life's Sport Organic Plant-Based Protein • Momentous 100% Plant Protein • MuscleMeds Carnivor Mass • Optimum Nutrition's Serious Mass powder • Jocko Fuel's Mölk Protein Shake
