Typical for milk

FDA's averages for this kind of food (this product has its own lab results above)

Compared with FDA's whole milk: what FDA found when it bought and tested it across the US. These are not tests of this product.

  • Perchlorate: typically 6 ppb (FDA, 20 samples, 2008-2012). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 1.1 L (4½ cups) a day; an adult at about 5.3 L (22 cups).
  • Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Arsenic (total): usually below 1 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
FDA samples behind these numbers
  • Lead in Milk, whole, fluid: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 1 ppb (2017-2020)
  • Cadmium in Milk, whole, fluid: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 1 ppb (2017-2020)
  • Mercury in Milk, whole, fluid: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 1 ppb (2017-2020)
  • Arsenic (total) in Milk, whole, fluid: found in 0 of 27 samples, all below 1 ppb (2017-2020)
  • Perchlorate in Milk, whole, fluid: found in 20 of 20 samples, average 9.23, highest 74.3 ppb (2008-2012)

"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.
