- Arsenic (total): 101 ppb (found in 1 of 1, highest 101).
No US agency limit we can cite.
Among tested products of this kind (ppb, log scale): this one others122 tested products of this kind: the middle one is 125 ppb. This one is higher than about 34% of them.
ppb = parts per billion. "Below the lab's limit" means the lab could not measure it reliably, not that it is absent.
Typical for rice
Compared with FDA's white rice, cooked: what FDA found when it bought and tested it across the US. These are not tests of this product.
- Cadmium: typically 5.2 ppb (FDA, 27 samples, 2017-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 2.3 kg (5.1 lb) a day; an adult at about 11 kg (24 lb).One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):4% of a toddler's daily limitunder 1% of a adult's daily limit
- Arsenic (total): typically 43 ppb (FDA, 27 samples, 2017-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
- Inorganic arsenic: typically 41.6 ppb (FDA, 1 samples, 2019).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 22 g (0.78 oz) a day; an adult at about 100 g (3.5 oz).One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):▲ 4.6× a toddler's daily limit● 99% of a adult's daily limit
- Lead, Mercury, Perchlorate: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
