Excessive levels of nitrite in the body are the root cause of chronic diseases in medicine, mainly entering the body through food intake or other means. Therefore, excessive levels of nitrite in the body will cause a series of health problems. This article discusses the health effects of excessive nitrite levels in the body. Based on this, it further explores the clinical manifestations of excessive nitrite levels and chronic diseases, analyzes the correlation between nitrite levels and the pathogenesis of chronic diseases, proposes targeted prevention strategies, and provides new ideas for the effective prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.
