This article is about the newly found levels of
arsenic in chickens. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University said they found
levels of arsenic in chicken that exceeded amounts that occur naturally, and
warned that they could lead to a small increase in the risk of cancer for
consumers over a lifetime. They said that the levels were low but they could
still be effecting us by increasing our risk of disease and our own levels of
arsenic in our bodies. They have found the source in the water they give to the
chickens. This problem has been recently discover in rice as well. This problem
could be fixed by finding where in the water the arsenic is coming from.
