[Effect of calcium content in diet on the accumulation and toxicity of cadmium in organisms].
Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic elements with no benefit to plants and human health. Cd is absorbed via gastrointestinal track through food chain and hence, poses subsequent health risks. Data available showed that the interdependence exists between nutritional status of the organism and Cd accumulation and its toxicity. In this paper, interaction of dietary calcium (Ca) and Cd toxicity was reviewed and discussed.
