Food science advances rapidly, especially in the field of health-giving functional foods. FAIA explains how additives fit into the modern spectrum of good nutrition.
The role of additives in different classes of food (including organic), issues of safety, and the effect of diet on behaviour are all explored.
In the Mix is a section of the site in which we show how the use of additives is rooted in the 'kitchen chemistry' of processes such as making sauces, jam, bread and wine.
