Additives and Ingredients for Healthy Eating

Without food ingredients and additives, the food we eat today would look and taste very different – and many of the products we take for granted wouldn’t exist. Food additives can be found in a range of foods – including organic products – and some are naturally occurring. In fact, if an apple and tomato were to carry a label, they would look like the pictures below. What's more, our bodies naturally create 20 different E number compounds, regardless of whether or not they're in the food we eat...If an apple were to carry a label, it would look like this

This site is designed to tell you more, and give an insight into the uses of different types of ingredients and additives.

It works to promote a better understanding of the role of food additives and functional ingredients and the reasons why they are so important.
