Is it safe to add food grade sodium hexametaphosphate to food?

 Recently, a strict inventory of "five-cents foods" that cannot be traced to the source has been carried out to ensure food safety, which reminds us that food grade sodium hexametaphosphate can be seen in many food ingredient lists. When it comes to additives, many people are discolored. In fact, it doesn't have to be like this. You should look at it dialectically, actively understand it, and become familiar with it.


Adding additives is to improve the quality of the product. The definition of additives in the national standard: Food additives refer to chemically synthesized or natural substances added to food for the purpose of improving food quality and color, aroma and taste, as well as for the needs of anti-corrosion and processing technology.


Is it safe to add food grade sodium hexametaphosphate to food? The sodium hexametaphosphate added to food is food grade, used in accordance with the prescribed scope of use and usage, and is harmless to the human body. An additive is allowed to be added to food through countless trials. Food inspection specifications are also particularly demanding in production. Sodium hexametaphosphate in phosphate is a widely used food additive, and it is often used as an acidity regulator to improve water retention.


Sodium hexametaphosphate can chelate metal ions and prevent them from combining with water. The dosage is generally 0.3-0.5%, and the dosage in cheese is 0.9%; meat is 0.3%; milk powder, cream powder, quick-frozen fish, shrimp 0.5%; condensed milk, beverages 0.2%.


Of course, adding a certain amount of food additives meets one of the above reasons. If it is said that a certain food has deteriorated and you want to cover it up by adding additives, then you have violated the law, and food additives do not mean adding illegally.
