rawforestfoods and lostempireherbs. Sorry, I used acronyms before because I wanted to be neutral and was concerned to inadvertently bias their image one way or another.

Okay, so the testing results are back. We tested both Raw Forest Foods and Lost Empire Herbs tongkat. It's exactly as I expected. Eurycomanone was not detected on either sample. ZERO. These were the two we tested specifically.

So absolutely no eurycomanone in either sample that we could detect. That Alkemist COA was from 2016. So that was likely a very old batch, if that was even the batch used in the production lot. Raw Forest Foods even claims eurycomanone % on their Supplement Facts box. However, it is below the detection limits of the machine. So we are talking less than 0.1%. We did spike recovery analyses on the methods as well, to ensure the numbers were accurate. We also tested ones we knew had eurycomanone, which all came up fine. So the machine and methods are accurate and validated. There is just no detectable eurycomanone in either sample.
