Nitrate from food is first converted to nitrite by oral bacteria and then further processed in the intestine. The gut microbiota reduces nitrate and nitrite to ammonia or nitric oxide, preventing the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines. Our analysis highlights Escherichia coli as a key player in this detoxification process, supported by other ...
