Consumer Reports finds arsenic and lead in fruit juices.

By Rock Consumer Reports 30 November 2011

Consumer Reports found that 10 percent of apple and grape juice samples

had arsenic levels exceeding federal drinking-water standards and 25

percent had lead levels higher than the limit for bottled water. Most of

the arsenic was inorganic, which is a human carcinogen. The organization

is calling for government standards to limit consumers' exposure to

these toxics.
