Subchronic dietary exposure of rats to cadmium alters the metabolism of metals essential to bone health [PDF]
, 2004 Cadmium (Cd) was recently identified as a risk factor for osteoporosis. Skeletal damage may be the critical effect of low-level long-term exposure to Cd in the general population exposed via food, but the mechanisms behind this are not clearly understood.

Responses of heat shock protein 70 and caspase-3/7 to dietary selenomethionine in juvenile white sturgeon. [PDF]
, 2016 An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the responses of juvenile white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) to elevated dietary selenium (Se) based on the determination of the RNA/DNA ratio in muscle, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), and ...

Probabilistic exposure assessment of operator and residential non-dietary exposure [PDF]
The Annals of Occupational Hygiene, 2001 This paper discusses the potential role of probabilistic non-dietary exposure and risk assessment in the regulatory processes for pesticide products. Regulatory decisions regarding operator or consumer exposure to pesticide products have traditionally been based on deterministic exposure assessments.

Dietary Exposures to Selected Metals and Pesticides [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1996 Average daily dietary exposures to 11 contaminants were estimated for approximately 120,000 U.S. adults by combining data on annual diet, as measured by a food frequency questionnaire, with contaminant residue data for table-ready foods that were collected as part of the annual U.S. Food and Drug Administration Total Diet Study.

Does low-energy sweetener consumption affect energy intake and body weight? A systematic review, including meta-analyses, of the evidence from human and animal studies [PDF]
, 2015 By reducing energy density, low-energy sweeteners (LES) might be expected to reduce energy intake (EI) and body weight (BW). To assess the totality of the evidence testing the null hypothesis that LES exposure (versus sugars or unsweetened alternatives ...

Dietary Aluminum Exposure Is More Closely Linked to Antioxidant Dynamics than to Body Mass Index
ToxicsThe association between aluminum exposure and obesity remains uncertain. This study investigated whether aluminum exposure (dietary, serum, and urinary) is linked to obesity and whether dietary antioxidant capacity moderates this relationship. A total of
