Category Overview
Food preservatives prevent premature decomposition of food due to the growth of microorganisms and slow down changes in color, texture, and taste that eventually make the food unsafe and inedible. They are especially important in the processing of packaged food and beverage products as they have properties that help preserve essence, texture, edibility, and nutritive value of food. While natural food preservatives are traditional and commonly used in individual households, chemical preservation entails adding a set of chemical compounds to the food products.
