Cesium and bromine are not nutrients. If you can ask question or say something intelligent the
bionet.toxicology forum moderator will likely let you post.
Wasn't potassium bromate remove as an acceptable food additive? It was used in bread making. I'd
avoid brominated vegetable oil, also.
As to cesium, it likely behaves somewhat like potassium which doesn't make it safe. Though it
doesn't seem very dangerous, either, I am basing my comments on when I looked at the toxicology
textbook earlier.
Extra radon isn't likely a great idea. However, do a combined web search on the words hormesis and
radiation. The results maybe interesting.
