Angry Brown Rice Highest in Arsenic

Surprised to find arsenic in many brands of brown brice. I eat Mahatma brand regularly but it appears to be one of the higher ones in arsenic.

..."Boiling the rice in a 6:1 water-to-rice ratio (sort of how you’d cook pasta), draining the excess water once cooked, has been shown to remove up to 60 percent of arsenic levels in rice. Rinsing before you cook can also reduce arsenic levels. In other words, flush the rice with lots of water."...
