In this Nutrition Science Bites episode Prof Clare chats with Dr Kerith Duncanson, gut researcher and Accredited Practicing Dietitian, about the history and purpose of food additives. Discover how food additives have evolved from ancient preservation methods to modern-day applications to enhance food flavour, appearance, and shelf life. We look at the different categories of additives, their potential health impacts, and consider both the science and implications of what we add to our food, including inflammatory bowel conditions like Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. We explore the balance between necessity and innovation in food processing and evaluate implications for sustainability and health.
