There are steps you can take to remove some of the arsenic from rice before eating:
1Rinse rice when its raw to take out about 10% of the arsenic in it.
2Boil rice like pasta with six cups of water for every one cup of rice to remove an additional 40% to 60% of the arsenic.
3After boiling the rice, pour off the remaining water, then rinse the cooked rice again
第一步,認真淘洗;第二步,用6倍的水煮米,然後把水倒掉;第三步,再次淘洗,然後用普通程序煮飯。
該研究說,雖然這樣降低了稻米的營養價值,但可以大大降低攝入砷的風險。
很多文章的建議是:
要選美國加州、東南亞和北印度以及巴基斯坦北部出產的大米。避免吃美國其他地區和意大利的稻米。
避免吃糙米/玄米/Brown Rice
不要讓孩子吃以米為原料的cereal
