This fully revised and updated new edition provides a comprehensive
look at nitrite and nitrate and their effect on human health and
disease. The first section describes the biochemical analysis of
nitrite and nitrate and its role in human physiology. The book then
shifts to sources of human exposure of nitrite and nitrate,
including environmental and dietary. Finally, the last section
discusses nitric oxide-based therapeutics and how nitrite and
nitrate biochemistry can be safely harnessed to improve human
health. Each chapter provides a balanced, evidence-based view and
heavily cites the most recent published literature. They follow a
strict chapter format which includes keywords, key points, a
conclusion highlighting major findings, and extensive references.
The second edition contains new chapters on nitrite and nitrate in
age medicine, nitrite and nitrate as a treatment for hypertension,
and nitrite and nitrate in exercise performance. Additionally, the
editors have expanded the biochemistry section to include chapters
on nitrate reducing oral bacteria, nitrite mediated S-Nitrosation,
epigenetics and the regulation of nitric oxide, and nitrite control
of mitochondrial function. Nitrate and Nitrite in Human Health and
Disease, 2e, will be of interest to health professionals,
nutritionists, dieticians, biomedical scientists, and food
scientists.
