AKA Molybdenum deficiency is the primary driver in these cancers and diabetes.

P.S NO2 from Nitratres plays an important role in epigenetic quality control, along side H2S they regulate demethylation, transulferation pathways, deacetylation.

One day agenda driven bad science is is going to hurt somebody. Probably already has.
