2. Harmful Additives What are food additives used for?
Food additives are used to make products last longer, look better or taste better.

Kun lapset syövät kouluruokaa niin siitä lapset saavat 50 lisäainetta per päivä! Ja ne ovat vain näkyvät. Jos mukaan laskee piilotetut lisäaineet, lopputulos on hyvin mahdollisesti jopa kaksinkertainen!

4. Harmful Additives
Some harmful additives in food have health concerns. Three major food groups if you don’t count chocolate are carbohydrates, proteins and fat.
