N1  - Revised and updated English language edition of Les nitrates et l'homme, le mythe de leur toxicité; Includes bibliographical references and index; The History of Nitrates in Medicine -- Nitrate, the Nitrogen Cycle and the Fertility of Nature -- The Metabolism of Nitrate -- Nitrate in Body Fluids -- The Case Against Nitrate : a Critical Examination -- Nitrate Regulations : Presentation and Discussion -- The Beneficial Effects of Nitrate; Access limited to subscribing institution; Also available in print format
N2  - This book focuses on the issue of the toxicity or innocuousness of nitrate. The nitrogen cycle, the metabolism of nitrate, the pathological and physiological levels of nitrate in body fluids, and the beneficial effects of nitrate (particularly in the areas of infectious digestive diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer) are discussed. Regulations concerning nitrate are examined. It is shown that, contrary to common belief, nitrate from vegetables and tap water presents no danger to human health
