【實用健康app】E Codes|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

E Numbers An application of the magazines Bon à Savoir and K-TippFood is increasingly « completed » with additives (colorants, conservatives, firming agents, flavor enhancers, etc.) often indicated on the labels, but sometimes in coded form: an E, followed by a number between 3 and 4 digits. Thus, the flavor enhancers, in certain soups, identified as E 621, E 627 and E 631 on the packaging have the following translation (which you will not find on the label): they are respectively, glutamate, guanylate and sodium inosinate. All three can trigger allergic reactions, asthma and are thus not recommended to people sensitive to them: you will not find the latter information on the label either!Our application will allow you to decode what the industry is trying to hide from you, by not only informing you of the risks and eventual contra-indications for people on a special diet (vegetarian, gluten, etc), but also by explaining the use of each additive and in which foods they are often used.This is the result of summary work conducted by our editors with the help of ten carefully documented and much diversified sources. From them, we have extracted and gathered information, which is clearly referenced in the application, and noted each additive according to the following criteria: - Safe: no source indicates a risk - Some doubts: at least one source refers to a risk. - Substantial risks: several sources indicate the same risks. - To be avoided: a majority of sources recommend that this additive be avoided. - No risk info: the sources give insufficient information or none at all on the risks.Furthermore, for each product we indicate if it is authorised in Switzerland and in the European Union. For the latter we base our information on the new Regulation CE 1130/2011 that came into force on 2nd December 2011. Warning: for the most recently prohibited products (E128, E154, E161 h, E216, E217, E342, E364, E550, E1101 and E1503), transitional measures authorise their use until 2nd december 2013. And food that contains such additives that were legally marketed during this time can be sold until stocks are exhausted.Rights and responsibilities:"The Editions Plus Sàrl as well as Konsumenteninfo AG decline all responsibility for any type of damages that could be caused in relation to the access or the use of this application."info@bonasavoir.ch© Editions Plus Sàrl, CP150, 1001 Lausanne, Suisse.
