The most common additives and preservatives(E-Numbers) found in (food) products worldwide
If E-numbers are used in a product, then the name of the substance or the E-number is on the label.
A substance does not just get an E-number, this is preceded by a whole process. The most important thing is that the substance should not be harmful to health. The E-number is, therefore, a guarantee that they can be used safely.
Perhaps this is true with very low consumption, but what if someone is sensitive in nature? Or what happens if someone consumes a lot of products and thus exceeds the maximum standards?
What do E-substances do when they are combined? Probably not much good.
People with, for example, ‘phenylketonuria’ (PKU) or a sulphite hypersensitivity should avoid certain
E-numbers. Furthermore, excessive use of polyols can have a laxative effect.

Grateful
I have suffered GI distress my whole life and have made attempts to reduce symptoms by cutting out certain foods. By viewing my results, I have realized that I only scratched the surface of my trigger foods. I appreciate your amazing work and your assistance in directing me to better health.
Big help and thanks
Thank you so much! You guys have really helped me a lot 🙂 have a great day!
We have an extensive FAQ section that covers the most common questions we've been asked.
Questions? Don’t hesitate to send me an email!
Because I want to help you as much as possible, you can always email me. Even in the evening and during weekends. Your health is the most important thing.
I am fully aware that the food we choose to eat will affect our physical and mental health, our athletic performance and how we age.
