Typical for sushi

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

Cadmium: typically 3.45 ppb (FDA, 84 samples, 2017-2020). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 2.8 kg (6.2 lb) a day; an adult at about 13 kg (29 lb).
One serving (9.03 oz, 256 g, from the label):
9% of a toddler's daily limit
2% of an adult's daily limit
Mercury: typically 15.5 ppb (FDA, 84 samples, 2017-2020). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 87 g (3.1 oz) a day; an adult at about 410 g (14 oz).
One serving (9.03 oz, 256 g, from the label):
▲ 2.9× a toddler's daily limit
● 63% of an adult's daily limit
Arsenic (total): typically 211 ppb (FDA, 84 samples, 2017-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
Lead, Perchlorate: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.

Perchlorate in Tuna, canned in water, drained: found in 8 of 20 samples, average 3.51, highest 29 ppb (2008-2012)

Left out of the summary above: Inorganic arsenic. 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.
