I wouldn't quite call myself a google trawler - but speak from experience. I'm an admin on the sausagemaking.org forums.
Mis-use of nitrates or nitrites can cause poisoning and death at worst, or cancer in the long term.
This is why we have Prague cures - they mix low dosages of nitrites and/or nitrates with salt. Overdosing becomes much more difficult as adding too much makes the final product too salty and unpalatable.
