Special 3-Part Report: Arsenic in Rice

_______________________________________________________________________________________

How does a toxic metal get in our food supply and why is it a special health concern for those on a gluten-free or rice-based diet, and for pregnant woman, babies and children? Amy Burkhart, MD, RD, provides essential facts and useful tips on how to reduce arsenic exposure in your diet. 

Jennifer Iscol and Vic Dolcourt get you up to date on this urgent topic, describing why consumer advocates are calling for federal regulation, and how the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Union and the United Nations are responding. We also provide the results of our arsenic survey of gluten-free manufacturers.
