Solutions
suggested by FDA and other experts include sourcing rice from fields
with lower arsenic levels in soil, growing it
with natural soil additives that reduce arsenic uptake by the roots, growing rice strains less prone to arsenic uptake,
rinsing rice or preparing it
with excess
water that is poured off, and blending it
with lower arsenic grains in multi-grain products.
After you drink an acidic beverage like seltzer (or coffee or juice), Dr. Krochak
suggests rinsing your mouth out
with water, and then popping in a piece of xyligtol gum for two minutes.
