The EPA Environmental Protection Agency measures toxicity of every substance in the United States, including plain dirt. Substances with higher toxicity rates are labeled “danger” The next level down “warning” Then we have lower levels such as “caution #3″, “caution #4″ This has nothing to do with whether the substance is natural or organic. Many natural substances are very toxic. Toxicity Ratings are based on whether or not your body can break down and metabolize the measured substance without damage to the host.

1. DANGER indicates a highly toxic. A taste to a teaspoonful taken by mouth could kill an average sized adult.
2. WARNING indicates that the product is moderately toxic. As little as a teaspoonful to a tablespoon by mouth could kill an average sized adult.
3. CAUTION indicates that the product is slightly toxic. An ounce to more than a pint taken by mouth could kill an average sized adult.
