Do you ever think about contamination in seasonings?

Heavy Metals in Herbs and Spices
Some herbs and spices may contain harmful heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, and lead. Brands such as McCormick, Spice Islands, and Great Value were noted for having some concentrations of heavy metals.

Pathogen Contamination
Additionally, a federal study revealed that about 12% of imported spices were contaminated with pathogens, including Salmonella. This contamination can occur due to poor handling and processing practices.

Recommendations for Safety
To reduce the risk of exposure to contaminants:

Choose Wisely: Select brands known for lower heavy metal levels.
Use Variety: Incorporate a range of herbs and spices to minimize the risk from any single source.
Grow Your Own: Consider growing your own herbs to control their quality.
By being mindful of these factors, you can enjoy seasonings while minimizing potential health risks.

Pickling Spices

Iron Support Tea: Need a natural organic herbal tea blend to build blood and support your liver? We have the right blend for you at The Cottage Sparrow.

Importance of Iron for Health
Iron is a vital mineral that plays several key roles in the body. It is essential for:

Oxygen Transport
Hemoglobin Production: Iron is a crucial component of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
Myoglobin Function: It also helps form myoglobin, which stores oxygen in muscle cells, supporting muscle function.
Energy Production
Iron is involved in various enzymatic processes that help produce energy. Adequate iron levels are necessary for maintaining energy levels and overall vitality.

Benefits of Iron Support
Iron supplementation can provide several health benefits, especially for those at risk of deficiency:

Treating Anemia
Iron supplements are commonly used to treat iron-deficiency anemia, a condition where the body lacks sufficient iron to produce healthy red blood cells.
Reducing Fatigue
Iron can help alleviate unexplained fatigue, particularly in individuals with low ferritin levels, even if they are not clinically anemic.
Enhancing Athletic Performance
Athletes, especially women and vegetarians, may require additional iron to support performance and endurance, as iron is essential for oxygen delivery to muscles.
Supporting Cognitive Function
Adequate iron levels are linked to improved cognitive abilities, including concentration and memory, as iron deficiency can impair mental performance.
