Description
Alrashdi and three colleagues test toxic metals in rice eaten in Saudi Arabia in twenty twenty-four. Local Hassawi rice and imports were digested and run through fine mass tools. Four metals plus inorganic arsenic were measured. Inorganic arsenic stood out as the worry.
Local rice carried far less inorganic arsenic than imports on average. Adult intake from imports in one city neared a since pulled world safety line. It also cleared a European cancer based caution level many times over. Other metals stayed low by contrast. The team flags import checks as the lever for public safety.
