According to scientists, the way the majority of us cook rice could actually be a risk to our health.

The 'normal way' to good the good stuff is usually by simply boiling in a pan until the water has steamed out. But according to the people that know, it is thought that traces of the poison arsenic – a chemical that contaminates rice as a result of industrial toxins and pesticides used in the growing process – can be found in the rice even after cooking.

Chronic exposure to arsenic has recognised links to a range of health problems including heart disease, diabetes and cancer. According to research from Channel 4's Dispatches and the Institute for Global Food Security, around 58% or rice-based products in the UK contain high levels of arsenic.
 
yeah. Arsenic is a big problem. Every other year, they come out with some solution for it then tell us its hogwash.
