The Additives Guide

By Christopher C. Hughes

The Additives Guide provides a general background to the function and use of additives, complemented by detailed discussion of individual additives and additive classes. The specific function, chemistry, history, regulation, and health aspects of individual additives are covered. Additives used in medicines and dentistry are also included. This is the first ''dictionary'' of additives geared toward the general public; unbiased, it is concerned with scientific evidence and not influenced by either health groups or food manufacturers. The index and glossary are alphabetically arranged and extensively cross-referenced.
