This study focused on haematological parameters in male Albino rats treated with cadmium, manganese, and cobalt or cadmium + manganese and cobalt to examine the protective effects of manganese and cobalt on cadmium toxicity. Based on the observations and findings, it can be concluded that cadmium is toxic to rats even at modest doses, and exposure to it can cause changes in important hematological parameters. However, supplementation with manganese and cobalt can lower the toxicity of cadmium, leading to improved survival rates, body weight, and length in rats. The interaction between cobalt and manganese appears to be critical in reducing cadmium toxicity, and even lower levels of these supplements can have a significant impact. These findings suggest that the supplementation of manganese and cobalt could be a potential strategy to mitigate the negative effects of cadmium exposure in animals. However, further research is necessary to understand the mechanisms underlying this interaction and to determine the optimal doses for supplementation.
