A Review on The Role of Nitrates in Water and the Possibility of Cancers

Nitrate contamination in water is a growing concern due to its potential health risks. This review examines the current understanding of the relationship between nitrate exposure and cancer development. We discuss the sources and pathways of nitrate contamination, its possible mechanism, and the evidence linking nitrate to various types of cancer. Additionally, we explore the potential mechanisms by which nitrate may contribute to carcinogenesis. Finally, we highlight the existing regulations and mitigation strategies for nitrate in water and suggest areas for future research.
