Riguardo questo articolo

Everyone has seen 'E' numbers - they appear on almost every packaged item in the average supermarket trolley. But what do these numbers stand for? Are they there to disguise the true identity of things which might do us harm, such as excessive fat? It is not that simple. Many of these additives are perfectly natural, harmless substances - not only that, but without some of them, such as preservatives, many of the foods we eat could quickly become very unsafe indeed. However, the indications are that certain additives are non-essential, and perhaps even harmful to sensitive people. Maurice Hanssen provides the answer with this indispensable guide which cracks the code of 'E' numbers to lay out in simple terms exactly what each number stands for, what foods it is commonly found in, what it does to the food and what - if anything - it might do to you. No one who is concerned with the quality of the food they eat should be without this invaluable reference book. Foreword by Leslie Kenton (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
