    I had pebbles in my bulk Cissus


    Yup that is what I said...Pebbles!
    I was capping it last night and I there was something hard in there that woudlnt break up. I picked it up and thought damn that looks like a rock. So I washed it off and damn it was a rock!
    So I started digging around and found more. I took the powder to a strainer and I had about 50 or more pieces of rock in there. I ran it through a couple more times and at the top of the stack I could see sandy grit mixed in.
    Think I should cap it and take it anyhow or send it back for a fresh batch?

    Rocks? My bulk cissus had some small lumps that were easily enough broken up. Did someone get hold of your stuff and screw with ya? Not to question your integrity but something like this seems more in line with a incident at the house vs. it being packaged like that.

    I have kids at home so my first people to blame are them with my wife a close second

    USP, I got it from Nutraplanet! Do they grind this up in some sort of mill? Like old school stone mill or something? Maybe that is what it was. Like a goof I chucked the pieces in the garbage but like I said you can see the fine granules in the powder still.

    Jay...I took the seal off of the container and sat down with it to cap. My wife knows better than to mess with my supps! Hehe

    I bought 200 g and have been pulling the rocks out as I capped, too.

    I just figured that bulk cissus was just a bit more raw than the USPLabs capped cissus.

    Well I've noticed this on occasion too.. you are talking about the small brown things a lil darker than the rest of the powder right? I wouldn't really worry it.. I've seen it more than once..

    I noticed it also too...it was very hard and difficult to break, but dissolves instantly in water or in your mouth, so it's just densely clustered powder. No worries

    No this was rock material..I washed some of the bigger ones off because it was covered in the powder.
    Damn I wished that I hadn't tossed them I would have taken a picture. It definitely didnt desolve.
