Just received COA of some bacopa extract I purchased. Here is a link to a study evaluating the acceptable levels of heavy metals in dietary supplements. depending on whose standard you go by .86ppm of lead is either above or below. erring on the side of caution i am probably going to return the product. opinions. should i keep it and ingest or no?

edit: i have been taking a different brand of bacopa for a few months. and purchased this in bulk to save money, i havent started taking it yet because i still have some left in the original bottle. i dont have a coa for the brand i am currently taking, thus it could be more or less than the bulk bacopa i purchased.
edit 2: received the COA for gotu kola and its 1.866ppm. ie more than double that of the bacopa.

They keep dicking me around. They want my address and date of birth before telling me anything. I told them that was ridiculous, and that my name, email, and phone number is sufficient. They have ignored me ever since I said that. I am going to threaten them with making a post never to use their products if they don't respond to me immediately.
