31% of a toddler's daily limit
7% of a adult's daily limit
Arsenic (total): typically 3.69 ppb (FDA, 60 samples, 2017-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
Perchlorate: typically 2.63 ppb (FDA, 80 samples, 2008-2012). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 3.5 kg (7.7 lb) a day; an adult at about 16 kg (35 lb).
One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):
3% of a toddler's daily limit
