Objective To assess and quantify the risk of rare earth elements via intake of fresh fruit and tea. Method Based on the application of @risk 5.7 software of Monte Carlo simulation, the risk quotient was selected to characterize the dietary risk of rare earth elements through consuming fresh fruit and tea. Results The risk quotient and the percentile risk of rare earth elements in general population through intake of fresh fruit and tea were less than 1. Conclusion The dietary exposure of rare earth elements only from fresh fruit and tea consumption is impossible to bring about severe health risk for general population. But the monitoring of rare earth elements in environment should be reinforced. The higher consumption of individual residents should be given the right guidance to further reduce the dietary rare earth elements risk level of the general population.
