A study of more than 18,000 people in Bangladesh has established a link between rice consumption and arsenic exposure and toxicity.Although there have been studies before which have suggested a connection, this research, carried out by scientists from America, Asia and De Montfort University, in Leicester, UK, is the biggest-ever study of its kind.Tests carried out on those who ate large amounts of rice showed they had higher levels of arsenic in their system than those who did not.
