Objective: This study aimed to determine the amount of total arsenic (Ast) in brown rice sold in the supermarkets and markets of Metropolitan Lima, January-February, 2020. Methodology: Nine samples of brown rice grains were collected, representing all the brands found at the time of sampling, 8 of them were packed and 1 in bulk. The inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) technique was used for the determination of heavy metals in food. Results: None of the samples analyzed exceeded the Ast content as they presented an average of 0,15 mg/kg with a standard deviation of 0,021. Discussion: The results of the study indicate that, in general, the value of Ast in brown rice that is sold in Metropolitan Lima is below the maximum levels established by different national and international entities that monitor food safety. However, due to the high impact that this pollutant can have on people's health, nutrition professionals should expect for the competent authorities to carry out an adequate control and surveillance of this cereal, and thus have greater reassurance in the recommendation of its consumption, since it has increased in the past years for its various health benefits. Conclusion: In the brown rice samples the amount of Ast did not exceed the maximum recommended limits for As in rice according to the Codex Alimentarius, MERCOSUR/GMC Resolution Nº 12/11 and NTP 205.011: 2014.
