Seeds Don’t Lie: Proving Jevie’s Safety

To show how gentle Jevie products are, Dr. Mesri conducted a simple radish seed germination test. Seeds react quickly to chemicals, making them a clear indicator of toxicity. The result: while seeds thrived in Jevie solutions, they failed to germinate in baby shampoo — proving Jevie creates a safer, less toxic environment for growth.

THE SHAMPOO VS. BABY SHAMPOO

The Results Are Clear

After 72 hours under room conditions, radish seeds germinated successfully in Jevie solutions, while no germination was observed with baby shampoo.

  • 5:1 Water : Shampoo

    Seeds in Jevie solution began to sprout, while no germination occurred in baby shampoo.

  • 7:1 Water : Shampoo

    Even at this dilution, Jevie supported healthy seed growth, while baby shampoo prevented germination.

  • 9:1 Water : Shampoo

    Seeds continued to germinate with Jevie, but none grew in baby shampoo solution.

Method

Setup

  • Small containers with a cotton layer inside.
  • Added 2.5 ml of water + shampoo mixtures.
  • Tested Jevie Shampoo vs. a leading Baby Shampoo.

Dilution Ratios Tested

  1. 5:1 (water : shampoo)
  2. 7:1 (water : shampoo)
  3. 9:1 (water : shampoo)

The test was conducted under room conditions for 72 hours. Radish seeds require a minimum of 20 °C to germinate, ensuring a natural environment for growth.

Why This Matters

This test highlights how Jevie formulations are less toxic and more environmentally friendly. If seeds can germinate in the presence of Jevie Shampoo, it shows the product is safe, natural and gentle—not only for people but also for the planet.
