In the article we considered the overall impact of several dangerous geochemical factors on vegetation and human body on the territory of Ukrainian Polissya. Such factors are radiation contamination and biogeochemical imbalance of micronutrients. We identify and describe synergistic exposure effects of radiation and the imbalance of Co, Mo, Zn on agricultural plants, livestock and people. We have summarized the parameters of the biogerrenic migration of 137Cs, Co, Mo, Zn in the landscapes of Ukrainian Polissya. We have established synergistic features of the biogenic migration of 137Cs with Co and Mo with Zn in the transition from soil into vegetation. The corresponding correlation between the levels of radiation risks areas and the prevalence of endemic microelementosis among the local population is obtained.
