Welcome.
The following excerpts are from a report published on Yahoo News on October 15, 2015.
"Regulators in the United States and abroad have reached troubling conclusions about the risks of potassium bromate that you probably don’t know about, but should. In 1999, the International Agency for Research on Cancer determined that potassium bromate is a possible human carcinogen. It is not allowed for use or is banned as a food additive in a number of countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada, Brazil and the European Union. The state of California requires food with potassium bromate to carry a warning label.
“The report, which comes courtesy of environmental research and advocacy organization Environmental Working Group, shows that potassium bromate is used in at least 86 baked goods and other products commonly sold in supermarkets.
NOTE: The organization has urged that the products be avoided.
"Potassium bromate is added to flour to strengthen the dough, help it to rise higher, and give the bread a white color. But it has also been identified as a “potential human carcinogen” by the International Agency for Research on Cancer and is listed as “possibly carcinogenic” by the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

"Various lab tests on animals found that potassium bromate caused significant increases in kidney, thyroid, and other cancers in animals. A 2011 study published in the journal Chemico-Biological Interactions also found it can damage DNA and cause oxidative stress in humans.
"While it’s uncertain
how much potassium bromate a person would have to consume to experience
negative health consequences, the Food and Drug Administration has
placed a limit of 75 parts per million in food products."
It should be noted that The G-Man Interviews purchased several popular food products from Associated and Key Food Supermarkets in New York City, all of which contained potassium bromate, and none of them had warning labels…as required in the state of California. The state of New Jersey labeled it a “hazardous substance” in 1998.
