ppb = parts per billion. "Below the lab's limit" means the lab could not measure it reliably, not that it is absent.
Typical for baby food and drinks
FDA's averages for this kind of food (this product has its own lab results above)
Compared with FDA's crisped rice cereal: what FDA found when it bought and tested it across the US. These are not tests of this product.
Cadmium: typically 14 ppb(FDA, 3 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 690 g (24 oz) a day; an adult at about 3.2 kg (7.1 lb).
Mercury: typically 3 ppb(FDA, 3 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 630 g (22 oz) a day; an adult at about 3 kg (6.6 lb).
Arsenic (total): typically 170 ppb(FDA, 3 samples, 2018-2020).
No US agency limit we can cite.
Inorganic arsenic: typically 90.4 ppb(FDA, 3 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 9.7 g (0.34 oz) a day; an adult at about 45 g (1.6 oz).
Lead, Perchlorate: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
Total arsenic counts every form of arsenic, including less harmful ones; inorganic arsenic is the more harmful part of it, so its number is part of the total.

"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.
Not tested
No published results for this product cover: Perchlorate, Phthalates (plastic softeners), Phthalate substitutes, Bisphenols. That means nobody has published a test, not that these are absent.
