Mamavation has been investigating products & food you would find at the grocery store for several years. And every year we add more and more. Here is a list of what we have accomplished so far that you can browse through. Each investigation breaks down products by ingredients and tells you who the bad, better and best brands are.

Lab Testing Products & Brands for Cancer-Causing Contaminants

Mamavation has been testing brands for contaminants like indications of PFAS “forever chemicals”, DDT, glyphosate, & phthalates for years. These are not ingredients you will see on an ingredient label. Some are found in our laboratory because they are pesticides used to treat crops while other chemicals are “indirect additives” approved by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for use in manufacturing. We use several EPA-Certified labs to help us find indications of these chemicals and report on those findings here. Our scientific & medical advisory team helps us translate the science behind the findings, while our supply chain advisors help us make sense of the data.

Additional Mamavation Investigations For Your Family

Each investigation Mamavation does takes the most popular products and breaks them down into “not our favorite”, better, & best based on the toxicity of the product and how it impacts the environment. We are looking for both ingredients on the label that are hormone-disrupting & ingredients not present on the label based on manufacturing that are hormone disrupting to make judgment calls. We use advisement from our scientific & medical advisory team to make sense of the overall findings for you.

Mamavation is community supported, so links in the investigations are affiliate and proceeds go to supporting our work here. It does not cost the readership any more to purchase the product when purchased through our affiliate links. If you are a brand in the “best” category and would like to offer a discount to our community please contact Mamavation directly. Please note that investigations are updated within a few years of being published, while some are updated annually. This is based on demand from our Facebook group.
