Brown rice alarm defused as critics push back on EWG warning
Original: Is brown rice trying to kill you? Another EWG fairytale fear defused
The American Council on Science and Health is dismissing warnings that brown rice poses a serious health risk, calling the fears overblown. The group argues the concern, linked to the Environmental Working Group's messaging around contaminants such as arsenic in rice, does not stand up to scientific scrutiny and that brown rice remains safe to eat as part of a normal diet.
Why now: Renewed claims about contaminants in brown rice have prompted scientists and food-safety critics to publicly challenge the warning.
