A recent Consumer Reports study found an alarming amount of poisonous arsenic in apple and grape juices after testing samples in the New York metropolitan area.

Consumer Reports says it’s a grave concern, considering the amount of juice children consume on a regular basis.

While the government sets limits on the levels of arsenic that can be present in water, no limits are in place for juice.

Out of 88 samples that were tested, 10 percent of the juice had arsenic levels that exceed the federal standards for bottled and municipal water. Twenty-five percent of the juices had also lead levels that exceeded water standards.
