Typical for processed cereal products

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

FDA samples behind these numbers
  • Lead in Cereal, oat ring: found in 2 of 3, average 3.6, highest 6.4 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Cadmium in Cereal, oat ring: found in 3 of 3, average 20, highest 25 ppb (2018-2020)
  • Mercury in Cereal, oat ring: found in 0 of 3, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)

"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.
