Is rice really that badly contaminated with arsenic?
I actually eat a lot of rice every day. How much rice do you eat? It says here: "In conclusion, it should be said that the occasional consumption of rice, as is customary in Central European cuisine, is considered harmless compared to the use of rice as a staple food, as is the case in many Southeast Asian countries, for example."
Isn't rice a staple food for you? How much more rice should they eat? Here's the link: Arsenic contamination in rice – What to consider! (futtermedicus.de)

In Asia they eat rice every day, but it comes to the variety and in Asia they wash the rice thoroughly before cooking to get arsenic etc.
I would basically recommend a variety of supplements. You can also have one or two rice days in the week. However, one should still keep an eye on the arsenic content. You don’t have to consume the one with the highest levels of arsenic. Oncle Bens Basmati in the cooking bag has, for example, low values.
It becomes problematic for people who eat a lot of rice.
Asian rice is usually more burdened with arsenic than European.
Arsene compounds can partially transfer from rice to water when washing and cooking rice in abundant water. In self-prepared dishes, wash and cook the rice before consumption best in plenty of water and then pour excess water away.

You should not eat rice every day, or use controlled rice from Europe.
Okay, my rice is organic, fair trade and from Italy…
That’s better.
You should cook it with plenty of water and then pour the water away.
I don’t know.
Especially with toddlers you should be careful with rice.
Somehow, I think there’s a lot of hysteria again…
I don’t know
It’s just going to basmati rice, because the arsenic is deposited most strongly in the shell. “Brauner” rice is the worst in terms.
nature rice from Pakistan is very loaded with heavy metals and arsenic
Coming to the brand Uncle Bens zb has garkein Arsen
It also depends on the type of rice. Most likely I would recommend Basmati rice, is least affected by arsenic, best you take whole grain, is the healthiest.
The arsenic is (mostly) in the shell. Full grain is the most untiring in Arsen!

That doesn’t mean anything… there’s still the question of how this is being prepared, etc.
No, because the arsenic is embedded in the plant/reiskor during waxing. It’s not getting swept. Arsen is in the ground, not only is sprayed.
But google it… the arsenic is in the water…
