Bromine

Bromine: The typical daily dietary intake of bromine is 2 to 8 mg. Foods high in bromine are grains, nuts and fish. Bromine is normally ingested as the bromide ion which has a low degree of toxicity; thus bromine is not of toxicological concern in nutrition. Limited findings suggest that bromide may be nutritionally beneficial; (e.g., insomnia exhibited by some hemodialysis patients has been associated with bromide deficiency).
