The equivalent to 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit is 37 degrees Celsius. This is the average normal human body temperature, which is slightly lower in adults.
The highest levels of arsenic (in all forms) in foods can be found in seafood, rice, rice cereal (and other rice products), mushrooms, and poultry, although many other foods can contain low levels of arsenic. Rice is of particular concern because it is a major part of the diet in many parts of the world.rsenic is a natural element that can be found in rocks and soil, water, air, and in plants and animals. It can also be released into the environment from some agricultural and industrial sources. Although it is sometimes found in its pure form as a steel grey metal, arsenic is usually part of chemical compounds.
There are two general types of arsenic: organic and inorganic (these together are referred to as âtotal arsenicâ). The term âorganicâ in this context has nothing to do with types of farming; it refers to chemical elements. If arsenic atoms bond with carbon, the compound is organic. If thereâs no carbon present, itâs inorganic. Of the two types, the inorganic forms of arsenic have been more closely associated with adverse health effects. How does arsenic get into foods? Arsenic is present in water, air and soil and is absorbed by some food crops as they grow. It is not an additive or ingredient in these food crops and cannot be completely eliminated from food. What about arsenic in rice?
