Consumer Wellness Center Labs

Every product sold by Groovy Bee has been extensively tested in the Consumer Wellness Center (CWC) Labs using ICP-MS atomic spectrometry instrumentation.

Headed by Mike Adams (the “Health Ranger”), CWC Labs developed a rating system that represents anew standard in consumer food safety.

Why Lab Testing Matters

Heavy metals are now being found in USDA-certified organic foods, superfoods, vitamins, herbs, and dietary supplements at alarming levels. We are the only company in the world (to our knowledge) that tests every lot of every product we produce. This means that products from other companies could potentially contain toxic levels of mercury, lead, cadmium, and arsenic—and still be legally sold across the USA.

Many people have health conditions worsened by toxic heavy metals. Because these elements can remain in the body for decades, consumers are empowered when they know which foods are safer to consume.

Lowe Heavy Metals Verification

To ensure your safety, we subject our products to rigorous lab testing for common heavy metals, including:

  • Pb (Lead)
  • Cd (Cadmium)
  • As (Arsenic)
  • Hg (Mercury)

The industry desperately needs a standard, so the CWC Labs developed and published one—using a rating system from A+++ to F.

Microbiology Testing

Improperly processed foods or ingredients sourced from low-quality agricultural regions can harbor harmful microbes that degrade quality—or worse, cause illness. Every Groovy Bee product undergoes extensive microbiology testing, including:

  • TAC (Total Viable Count)
  • Coliform
  • Yeast and Mold
  • E. coli
  • Salmonella
  • Staphylococcus

Glyphosate Testing

Glyphosate, a toxic herbicide widely sprayed on crops, has been linked to metabolic disorders and chronic disease.

The Health Ranger Store has invested years of research and state-of-the-art equipment to achieve ISO-accredited in-house glyphosate testing.

All Groovy Bee brand products are certified “Glyphosate-Tested,” with residues verified to be below 100 ppb (in accordance with EU standards).

Mycotoxin Testing

Mycotoxins are toxic byproducts of certain fungi and molds. Consuming contaminated foods can cause serious illness—or even death. We spare no expense to ensure that commonly contaminated products are tested for traces of mycotoxins, including:

  • DON (Deoxynivalenol)
  • Aflatoxin
  • Fumonisin
  • Ochratoxin

Gluten Verification

We understand that many consumers have gluten sensitivities.


All of our gluten-free products are carefully labeled and certified gluten-free, ensuring safety and accuracy.

Listeria monocytogenes Testing

Listeria monocytogenes is a dangerous bacterium that can cause severe intestinal illness. To protect you, certain Health Ranger Store products that are commonly susceptible to these bacteria are manufactured and handled according to unparalleled cleanliness and hygiene standards.

Your Safety. Our Priority.

At Groovy Bee, we believe that truth in labeling starts with lab verification. From heavy metals to glyphosate, from microbiology to mycotoxins—every test we perform is another layer of safeguard for your health.
