Preservatives and additives in food

[mumoffourau]

Hey I'm wondering about food preservatives and if this is safe to give to my kids Im thinking of just making everything from scratch for them, there is so much conflicting info about it out there!

Thanks

I try to avoid ultra processed food however I don’t work and I don’t have young children. When I did have small children I was grateful for any food they would eat!

Try reading Chris Van Tullocksons book which puts it into perspective. He’s done some bbc programmes too.

I think you do need to be sensible though, avoiding additives when possible is one thing, totally upf free is much harder and means you can never eat out.

If you haven’t already used it try the Yuka app that allows you to scan the barcode on
food products and gives you information ob the risk of any additives it contains
