Nutritional toxicology is a field of nutrition research focused on understanding the adverse effects of chemicals, contaminants, or excessive nutrient intake on human health. It explores how dietary components interact with the body at various levels, from molecular to systemic, to elucidate their toxicological mechanisms. Researchers in this field investigate the impact of toxins on nutrient absorption, metabolism, and utilization, as well as their potential to cause acute or chronic health issues such as organ damage, carcinogenesis, or reproductive disorders. By identifying and assessing these risks, nutritional toxicology plays a crucial role in shaping dietary guidelines, food safety regulations, and public health policies to mitigate potential hazards and promote overall well-being.
Throughout our lives, humans are exposed to a wide range of food contaminants, bacterial toxins and neoformed products from our diet: this is the concept of the dietary exposome. Among natural food…
In 2021, the US Congress found heavy metals problematic in the American baby food supply but took no action. Heavy metal residues are pervasive in the United States (US) food supply and allowed by…
Potential health risks of heavy metal exposure have been reported in the past few decades. In particular, recent studies have demonstrated that metals have cancer and non- cancer risks to human…
