Research notes

Site-wide/brand pages (not this specific product page) mention Kagoshima, Japan as origin and JAS + USDA Organic certification, but those specific details were not confirmed as present verbatim on this product page itself — flagging as a gap between brand-level claims (from other pages/search results) and this specific product page's disclosed content. Product was sold out at time of check.

Rubin's commentary: of the (now) 10 matcha products she has covered, 6 had lower Lead than Matcha Nude's self-reported 74 ppb; Matcha Nude's 11 ppb Cadmium was the lowest of the group; its 7 ppb Arsenic was 'safe by all standards' and lower than the other matcha products tested; but it tested positive for Mercury, which concerns her given there is 'no safe level of Mercury consumption for pregnant women / women of childbearing age.' She recommends brewed (steeped) green tea as a safer alternative to matcha powder.",
