Typical levels
FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food; these are the closest foods it does test.
- Cadmium: typically 6.51 ppb (FDA, 57 samples, 2017-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 2 kg (4.4 lb) a day; an adult at about 9.4 kg (21 lb).One serving (100 g, a standard portion):5% of a toddler's daily limit1% of an adult's daily limit
- Arsenic (total): typically 50.7 ppb (FDA, 57 samples, 2017-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
- Lead, Mercury: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
FDA samples behind these numbers
- Lead in Quinoa, cooked: found in 1 of 3 samples, average 3.67, highest 11 ppb (2018-2020)
- Lead in Rice, brown, cooked: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 4 ppb (2017-2020)
- Lead in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 4 ppb (2017-2020)
- Cadmium in Quinoa, cooked: found in 3 of 3 samples, average 11.2, highest 19 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Rice, brown, cooked: found in 27 of 27 samples, average 7.98, highest 17 ppb (2017-2020)
- Cadmium in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 27 of 27 samples, average 6.54, highest 23 ppb (2017-2020)
- Mercury in Quinoa, cooked: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
- Mercury in Rice, brown, cooked: found in 8 of 27 samples, average 0.36, highest 1.5 ppb (2017-2020)
- Mercury in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 1 of 27 samples, average 0.05, highest 1.4 ppb (2017-2020)
- Arsenic (total) in Quinoa, cooked: found in 1 of 3 samples, average 3.33, highest 10 ppb (2018-2020)
- Arsenic (total) in Rice, brown, cooked: found in 27 of 27 samples, average 64.3, highest 88 ppb (2017-2020)
- Arsenic (total) in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 27 of 27 samples, average 44.8, highest 75 ppb (2017-2020)
- Inorganic arsenic in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 1 of 1 sample, average 41.6, highest 41.6 ppb (2019)
- Perchlorate in Rice, white, enriched, cooked: found in 3 of 20 samples, average 0.55, highest 6 ppb (2008-2012)
Left out of the summary above: Inorganic arsenic, Perchlorate. FDA measured them in only some of these foods, so the result describes those foods, not the whole kind.
"Typically" is FDA's middle sample. Daily amounts use the long-run average and each chemical's daily limit (EPA reference dose, or FDA's level for lead) for a 33-lb toddler and a 154-lb adult. ppb = micrograms per kilogram of food. Source: FDA Total Diet Study.
