Sodium nitriteForms carcinogenic nitrosamines in cured/processed meat; processed meat classified IARC Group 1.
Potassium nitrateReducible to nitrite; nitrosamine precursor in cured meats.
PolyphosphatesInorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
