As of 2025, there is no official U.S. standard from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that sets a maximum permissible level for chromium (Cr) specifically in soybeans. However, the FDA does take action if a contaminant in food is found to pose a health hazard.
As of 2025, Canada does not have specific, regulated maximum limits for chromium (Cr) contamination in soybeans. Soybeans absorb naturally occurring chromium from the soil, but national standards focus on water, air, and supplementary foods rather than setting limits for contaminant levels in most agricultural products.
