- Abstract: Exposure to environmental pollutants imposes important health risks to human beings. In recent years, emerging evidence has suggested that nutritional components may ameliorate the adverse health effects of environmental pollutants. Therefore, it raises great public health interests in protecting human health from environmental pollutants by nutrition interventions. Considering in vivo and in vitro experimental evidence, as well as epidemiological studies, this paper reviewed the possible mechanisms underlying how nutritional components counteract the adverse health impacts of environmental pollutants, which can provide directions for further studies on health risk assessment and nutrition intervention associated with environmental pollutant exposure.
