NSI (Nutraceutical Sciences Institute) supplement question re lead contamination

I've both read and heard that Nutraceutical Sciences Institute products, sold by VitaCost, contain very high levels of lead. I can't afford a subscription at Consumerlabs, who publish a report about this. Does anyone have more info about this, or know of a free source of lists of vitamin/supplement suppliers and their testing results? I really thought NSI was supposed to be a reputable brand. Thanks-Jean

    I have read that you can not rely on consumer labs reports. They are not like consumerreports.org. Consumerlabs charges companies money to be members and if a company pays them then they do not publish any negative information about the company. I would not believe everything I read from consumerlabs. I have heard many good things about the NSI brand and products.
