Food AdditiveAny additives put into food must by law be shown on the label. Many are shown by the European Community to have an E number. Additives with E numbers have been tested and passed as safe for use in the EU countries. Numbers without an E in front are allowed in the UK but not in all EU countries.
A few people suffer from allergic reactions to some additives, but many more people are allergic to ordinary foods such as milk and soya. A diet which is high in processed foods is not only more likely to contain additives but will probably be higher in salt, sugar and fat. Replacing these foods with more fruits and vegetables and starchy foods is good advice.
