William Vasquez+FollowIs There Arsenic in Your Rice?!Just found out that every single rice sample tested in a new report had arsenic—yep, 100%! Some even went way over the limit set for baby food. The wild part? There’s no federal limit for regular rice, even though we all eat it. If you want to cut down on the nasties, try cooking rice like pasta (lots of water, then drain), swap in quinoa or couscous, or stick to Calrose, sushi, or jasmine rice. Brown rice and risotto? Maybe not tonight. #FoodSafety #Rice #HealthNews #ToxicMetals #WhatWeEat #Health30Share

xwest+FollowRice Lovers, You Need to See ThisTurns out, a ton of store-bought rice in the US has way more arsenic and cadmium than you’d expect—like, way above what’s safe for babies. Some rice types and where they’re grown make a big difference (California sushi rice is the safest bet). Swapping rice for ancient grains or cooking it like pasta (lots of water, then drain) can cut your exposure big time. Labels don’t always help, so check where your rice comes from! #FoodSafety #RiceFacts #HealthAlert #ParentingTips #ToxicMetals #Health184Share
