​Is There A Cancer-Causing Chemical In Your Bread?
By Pierre Mouchette | Bits-n-Pieces
Many packaged baked goods have flour that may contain potassium bromate, an additive linked to cancer.  The chemical is added to flour to strengthen the dough and allow it to rise higher, benefits that have led many U.S. companies to embrace it.  This additive is widespread and legal in the U.S., even though other countries have banned it due to health concerns. 
​The U.S. food industry has long argued that potassium bromate is not a concern in baked products.  In theory, baking fully converts it into potassium bromide, a similar yet non-carcinogenic chemical.  
 
In lab tests, animals exposed to it had increased incidences of benign and malignant tumors in the thyroid and peritoneum, the membrane that lines the abdominal cavity.  The latest research finds that ingesting potassium bromate significantly increases cancer of the animals’ thyroid, kidneys, and other organs.
