    Introduction: many people don't know processing aids very well Here is the difference between food additives and processing aids? Is it right to say that processing aids are food additives? So what's the difference between food additives and processing aids? Food additives are auxiliary materials used in food processing or processing for the purpose of improving food quality and processing conditions For example, sweeteners, preservatives, flavors, etc Processing aids are substances that ensure the smooth processing of food, which have nothing to do with food itself Such as filter aid, clarification, adsorption, lubrication, etc The main difference between the two substances is that the food additives are stored in the food after consumption, and finally to be consumed by human beings Processing aids will not be left in food for human consumption Nowadays, many foods have food additives, so what are food additives? In fact, food additives are synthetic or natural substances added into food to improve the quality of food such as color, fragrance and taste, as well as to meet the needs of antisepsis and processing technology Some food additives are harmful to human body, but China's food safety detector can accurately check whether the food is safe and whether there is excessive use of additives, so that we can eat food more safely If you want to know more about food additives, please go to Baibai safety net Editor in charge: he xianrob
