Leeman Issues 15 Additional 60-Day Notices Against Dried Tea Distributors

Dr. Whitney R. Leeman has issued 15 more 60-Day Notices of Proposition 65 violation against tea distributors, including Yamamoto of Orient, Eden Foods, and International Coffee & Tea.  Dr. Leeman alleges that the companies sold dried teas in California that contained the heavy metal lead without the requisite health hazard warning.  Lead is known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and/or other reproductive harm.
