Overview

Comprehensive review exploring potassium bromate's toxicity in humans and the protective effects of dietary antioxidants.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the carcinogenic potential of potassium bromate and the chemopreventive effects of dietary antioxidants.
  • Reviewed experimental and epidemiological studies on potassium bromate's toxicity and carcinogenicity.
  • Analyzed the role of antioxidants in reducing oxidative stress and enhancing protective pathways.
  • Summarized findings on the association between chronic dietary exposure to potassium bromate and health risks.
  • Potassium bromate exposure leads to DNA damage and multiple-organ toxicity.
  • Experimental evidence shows increased tumor formation in renal, hepatic, and thyroid tissues.
  • Dietary antioxidants demonstrate significant potential to mitigate oxidative damage caused by potassium bromate.
