Typical for breakfast drinks

FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food, so these are the closest foods it does test. Treat them as a rough guide.

FDA samples behind these numbers
  • Lead in Juice, orange, bottled/cartoned: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Lead in Meal replacement, liquid RTD, vanilla: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Cadmium in Juice, orange, bottled/cartoned: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Cadmium in Meal replacement, liquid RTD, vanilla: found in 2 of 3 samples, average 1.23, highest 2.4 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Mercury in Juice, orange, bottled/cartoned: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Mercury in Meal replacement, liquid RTD, vanilla: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Arsenic (total) in Juice, orange, bottled/cartoned: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Arsenic (total) in Meal replacement, liquid RTD, vanilla: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 3 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Perchlorate in Orange juice, bottled/carton: found in 8 of 20 samples, average 4.49, highest 33.6 ppb (2008-2012)

Left out of the summary above: Perchlorate. FDA measured it 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.
