I cant post links but you can search the following sites
theworld.org search sri-lanka-kidney-chemicals
npr.org search fda-weighs-federal-standard-to-limit-exposure-to-arsenic-in-rice

There are issues with soy also.

What about legumes and beans? Can you tolerate?

There is also a mycoprotein called Quorn that you may want to check out.

Looks like we are starting to pay the price for the pollution we are causing. It makes me sad.
Thanks for the info raj, I will look into it. Certain legumes and beans are tolerable in small amounts.

It makes me sad too
