What is the difference between domestic and foreign food additives

Introduction: 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 So what's the difference between domestic and foreign food additives? Food additive is a kind of non nutritive substance which is added in small amount to improve the appearance, flavor, organization structure or storage property of food According to this definition, food fortifiers for the purpose of enhancing food nutrients should not be included in the scope of food additives So what's the difference between domestic and foreign food additives? First of all, the rapid growth of the total amount of industrial food in China will simultaneously promote the development of food additives Reform and opening up and improvement of living standards have brought great development to China's food industry, especially in the last decade of the 20th century, with an average annual growth rate of 10.4%, China's food industry has achieved unprecedented rapid development With the development of society and technological progress, the external macro environment and internal industrial structure of China's food industry have undergone profound changes Especially under the decision of the central government to solve the "three rural" problem and the strategy of the western development, more social resources have been invested in the food industry In 2003, the total output value of China's food industry has reached 1291.354 billion yuan (90 yuan) At the beginning of reform and opening up in 1978, the total output value of China's food industry was only 47.17 billion yuan (70 prices) In the future, with the development of China's national economy and the diversification of residents' consumption, the level and structure of food consumption will also change greatly, among which the more obvious is that the consumption of self-sufficient food will further decline, and the proportion of industrial food in food consumption will further increase, so the food additive industry complementary to industrial food will also be developed synchronously Secondly, some international multinational companies are generally optimistic about China's food and additives market Actively introduce funds to invest and build factories in China The introduction of foreign capital not only solved the capital problem for the development of the industry, but also introduced advanced production technology and new varieties of food additives, improved the management level of the industry, and increased the aftereffect for the further development of the industry Third, compared with the same industry abroad, there is still a certain gap in the variety and quality of China's food additive industry, mainly reflected in: first, due to production technology, high-end products still need to be imported Therefore, the development of domestic urgently needed, and a large number of imported products is one of the focus of the development of food additives in China Second, the improvement of domestic consumer safety awareness and the optimistic market of low toxic products put forward new requirements for the product structure of China's food additives, which will promote the technology and products of China's food additives industry to further integrate with international standards Therefore, it can be predicted that with the improvement of the safety level of food additives, new safe food additives will become a new economic growth point of the industry Fourth, to realize the export strategy of various varieties, superior quality and low price has always been the direction of expanding international trade of food additives in China In recent years, China attaches great importance to the research and development of international popular food additives With the breakthrough of production technology and cost, the international trade volume of new food additives in China will increase, which will further promote the development of food additives in China Food additives only account for 0.01-0.1% of food ingredients, but they have a great impact on food quality, nutritional structure, processing conditions, shelf life, etc Scientific and rational use of food additives can be a driving force for the rapid development of food industry If not properly managed or used, it may become an unsafe factor of food, endangering people's health and life safety Therefore, the international community, especially the developed countries attach great importance to the management of food additives, and formed a strict and standardized management system Nowadays, many foods have food additives, so what is 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 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
