evidence: Apeel does disclose that it contains mono and diglycerides, which are emulsifiers. Emulsifiers mix ingredients that usually wouldn't blend, like oil and water. They're common food additives, but they're not without controversy. [...] Even more concerning are reports of heavy metals found in Apeel's products. Independent lab testing detected measurable cadmium, lead, mercury, and arsenic levels. [...] It's not just the ingredients in Apeel that concern me, but also how it's made. The manufacturing process is a bit of a black box, but from what we do know, there are some potential issues.
