Description
Catherine M Lucey and colleagues trace what cooking does to good and bad elements in rice eaten in Bangladesh. Their 2026 study uses 106 matched sets of raw rice, cooked rice and urine from the Health Effects of Arsenic Longitudinal Study in Araihazar. Rice feeds much of the world and carries both nutrients and toxins, yet most studies test raw grain alone and never link the plate to the body.
Thirteen elements were tracked across all three sample types. Barium and strontium rose after cooking, by mean amounts of 241 and 679 ng per gram in the reported values, while caesium, selenium, molybdenum and nickel fell. Matching cooked profiles to urine markers shows which elements on the plate actually reach people.
