I did order the Suregrow from Yu-cann in Altberta Canada. As Dan suspected
it is 5.1% saponin compared to 20% from Helena CHEMICALS. The caps are on
purpose. The person at Yu-cann feels Helena's is likely chemical extracted
- his is acceptable for organic use.

I am Demeter certified organic and my certifier has already mentioned that
I had better source organic molasses for this tea. Are others facing this
issue ? have you sourced organic ?
