<h1>With the pace of social development getting faster and faster, the standard of living is constantly improving, and the pace of people's lives is getting faster and faster. As the saying goes, "the people take food as the sky", in recent years, it is often seen on the Internet about the safety and quality of "food", which is not uncommon. Can this be eaten? Can that be eaten...? We are living in fear all day long. </h1>
People say that food additives are harmful to the human body? Is it true?
So I specifically learned about it online.
Food additive expert (Academician Sun Baoguo of the Chinese Academy of Engineering) explained to us what food additives are through a speech.
<h1>What are food additives? </h1>
For us, the more familiar food additives should be preservatives, basically all the snacks we have eaten and all the drinks we drink, have added preservatives. So why are people so scared? Because many of us, in fact, do not know what is a food additive.
Food additives are added to synthetic or natural substances in food to improve the color, aroma, taste and other qualities of food, as well as for the needs of preservative and processing processes.
At present, our country has 22 types of food additives, from the variety of more than 2300 kinds, of which more than 1780 are food spices and flavors.
<h1>Academician Sun Baoguo said: Food additives cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide. </h1>
The most important food additives are food flavors and flavors. We all know that the Chinese people often say that there are several things to open the door: chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea. For example: salt has anti-caking in it, called anti-caking agent. The salt that everyone eats now is wet in the summer and does not clump. Whether it is soy sauce or vinegar, these condiments also need to be preservatives. If we want to add some MSG to the dish, sodium glutamate is a food additive. There are also young people who like to chew gum, chewed gum needs to be spit out, what is spit out? One of the 22 types of food additives is called gum base, the main raw material of gum gum is the gum base, which is actually a compound food additive, so we can't hide from this food additive, and there is no need to hide.
From a toxicological point of view, many food additives are toxic, and some are highly toxic. However, in food, it does not exceed the maximum amount of use, there is no harm to the human body, not only is there no harm, but some are still beneficial to the human body.
Tofu, I believe everyone has eaten. Brine tofu, many people think it is delicious, lactone tofu also has a different flavor. Legend has it that tofu was invented by Liu An, the king of Huainan, more than 2,100 years ago. Chinese eat tofu, have you ever heard of poisoning by eating tofu? Nothing!
Brine tofu is non-toxic, but brine is toxic. And what are the main components of brine? magnesium chloride. Most of the infant formula milk powder on the market, many ingredient lists have magnesium chloride, because magnesium is a necessary trace element of the human body, that is to say, many food additives, it in addition to the function of food additives, some also have the function of improving human body function and antioxidants.
<h1>The use of food additives should be strictly in accordance with the regulations: this variety must be allowed to be used in our country. It must be used within the prescribed scope of use and cannot exceed the scope. </h1>
It cannot exceed the maximum allowable amount of use, or some cannot exceed its maximum residual amount.
So:
Everybody should now,
One conclusion can be drawn,
food additives
It is to improve the quality of food,
maintain food safety,
What is provided is a positive energy.
If each of us can treat food additives objectively and fairly with a normal mind. Academician Sun Baoguo believes in the final result: the quality of food in China is better than that of foreign food, the delicious enjoyment on the tip of our tongue has been obtained, and our health of the human body has also been maintained. #健康生活我看行 #
