Food Additives
Food additives are substances added to food during processing in order to improve its flavor, texture, safety, or shelf-life. They are used to enhance the color, texture, and flavor of food, as well as to prevent spoilage and foodborne illness. Food additives can be derived from natural sources or created synthetically, and are regulated in order to ensure safety and quality. They are an important part of food production and play a key role in preserving the nutritional value and freshness of food.
