Harmful Chemicals in Our Daily Food
August 4, 2011Food additives are chemical substances that manufacturers add to the foods consistence to boost the aliment’s taste and aspect or to extend the expiration term. In Europe, they are symbolized by the ‘E’ letter which indicates that they had been tested for no less than six years in European terms. It is impossible for the food that enters into the factory not to be processed with such additives. These days, pretty much all the food we purchase from markets is transformed so that you can obtain a better profit.
Are we aware of what we eat? Have we ever wondered why the food looks so excellent and why it does not harm so quickly? What we can locate in our everyday food? Let’s see the foods that make the best of the list on the subject of added chemicals.
Fruit, Yogurt and Melted Cheese
Melted cheese, cheese creams and fruit yogurts contain a big amount of additives that quit the calcium assimilation and trigger kidney difficulties. Half of the composition of the melted cheese is cream and half is butter, starch and additives like polyphosphate and melting salts. These additives reduce calcium absorption. Besides additives, melted cheese contains a lot of fats that thicken the blood vessels.
The yogurts with fruits brought from the supermarket don??£¤t contain fruits at all, but, flavors of fruits (which can be hazardous additives) and an overdose of sugar.
Bananas
Imported bananas are harvested unripe as a way to prevent the harm. As soon as arrived to the destination country, they’re introduced into gas chambers to ripen. The gas chamber contains ethylene, a hormone that nature itself produces, but bananas grown in such artificial conditions lose their accurate taste and nutritional properties.
Bread
The technological procedure of grinding the wheat lessens the nourishing good quality of the bread. Thereby, the white flour remains with smaller quantities of B1 vitamin, folic acid, iron, copper, magnesium and zinc. At the processing of bread, there are actually added chemicals like potassium bromated (E 924 - which causes diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pains), sodium sulphate (E 514 - affects the gallbladder), calcium lactate (E 327 - causes hypercalcaemia and kidney failure), fumaric acid (E 297), acetic acid and citric acid.
Food additive and ingredients industry development is on the rise
July 19, 2010China’s food industry has entered into the phase of rapid development, and food industry modernization and without food additives. Food additive as modern food industry development in modern times, also helped the continuous development of food industry in a steady rise in 2009, whether products production sales or exports have greatly improved, product structure, product quality, scientific and technological innovation and technological progress also have outstanding achievements, and further economic rise in 2010, food additive and ingredients in the economy as a whole industry background will also continue to develop upward.
Food additive and warmed up the whole industry ingredients momentum
China has the competitiveness of food additives products output only accounted for about 15 per cent of international trade, but in a few varieties, in international occupies an important position and influence of traditional exports, except the natural flavor and unique to China, some varieties of modern development of varieties also shows its export competitiveness.
By late 2008 and early 2009, the influence of the global financial crisis, food additive and ingredients industry from 2009, slow growth in the second quarter, growth quickened. The main industry in 2009 671.5 tons, output varieties, sales reach a year-on-year growth of 14.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year growth of 669 about 15%. The export of 30 billion dollars. Half of 2009, industry, partial product warmed momentum of marketing channel, annual rise significantly into the business situation better than expected. Among them, flavor malt and ethyl products sales reached 20% polyphenols malt sales growth, while 48, Salty flavor annual output reaches more than 15 percent year-on-year growth, The natural pigment products of capsicum red pigment production and sales are up to 25%, Gardenia yellow grain production, sales, fulfill a year-on-year growth of 21% year-on-year increase, Antiseptic product nisin, output growth, increasing by 60%, application scope and further expansion.
It is estimated that our food industrial output will reach by 2010, with an annual growth rate of 25,000 billion yuan is about 8%. With the food additive industries will be kept fast growth needs to 2010, demand of domestic food additive, China will achieve 480 million tons of food additives industry should conform to the trend, quicken the pace of development and production.
Food additive technology innovation has many achievements
2009, food additive and ingredients industry science and technology innovation, for example, have successfully developed with international standards and L - tryptophan. According to understand, tryptophan production technology has been a few international amino acids giants, prices. Domestic tryptophan, regardless of medical or feed additives, entirely dependent on imports. L - by upholding animal nutrition tryptophan depletion of the amino acids. Whether human or animals and plants, their microbial, the amount of protein contain natural amino acids. In the 20 amino acids essential elements, have 8 kinds of amino acids and animal itself cannot synthesis, must rely on food supplement. “ShengHuaBaiKe” production L - this is 8 kinds of amino acid serine, also one of the most key of the three species of amino acids.
The use of food additives
July 6, 2010The use of food additives, annotation problem, consumers are often confused
According to the food safety of the provisions in article 42 of the food packaging, labels should marked by use of food additives in the national standard of generic names. “Food additive production supervision and management of food additive regulations of production and circulation, make a more strict rules. But manufacturer for the use of food additives and label is still difficult.
Guangdong bureau recently published a list of substandard food, including Shanghai golden group production of a “golden” chocolate and beauty of the strange food production “fragile” rice was not qualified through. “Golden” chocolate was detected oligo-isomaltose type without sugar chocolate (substituted coco fat), the content of honey in additive unqualified, “Hello,” the crispy rice tong contains antioxidants, but the enterprise fails to make mark labels in commodities.
Many consumers worry additive health hazard in food additives labeling will help consumers will choose. But many citizens reflect the situations.thus, businesses will be listed in the name of additives on the outer packing, such as citric acid, sorbic acid potassium, o, sweet… These names had let consumer look confused, plus businessman only labeled name without mark content, consumer is overwhelmed.
In guangzhou, the reporter found that some bulk food such as cookies, lap-mei, seafood, etc, simply find additives labeling. In addition to a portion of the goods on the packaging, labeling still not food additive type.
In hefei, the reporter interviewed several supermarkets, find out about the same problem of food additive mark. Although most of the food packaging bags are clearly on the outside of the food additive, but different criteria, such as some milk clearly the composition of additives, some related only mark the milk, sugar etc.
Food additive acetic acid
June 28, 2010With the preparation of standard, condiment vinegar on demand of the acid industry has greatly increased. Due to the lucrative, so some manufacturers FengYongErShang, market “Star Wars” acetic acid fractious, food additives and the quality qualification or not directly related to the people’s health. So the author thought has the obligation to the relevant problems, responsibilities, and all the manufacturers and acetic acid attention related law enforcement agencies.
Marketing: because of the demand of acetic acid compound vinegar, acetic acid, a manufacturer of good and evil people mixed up, acetic acid production factory is ChengXiErRu conquest, the market supply and saturated even excess, increasingly fierce competition, the factory occupies a place in the market, besides using the normal promotions, trying to make and sell, the high price discount promotion, to sacrifice for the connotation of the low quality of acetic acid etc various means nothing to the extreme. All these phenomena exists, and do make a genuine concern the healthy development of acetic acid production.
Food preservatives research progress of natural peptide
June 24, 2010Food preservatives of synthesis, screening, antibacterial properties and antibacterial mechanism of a lot of experiments. In the food additives, sugar, salt and vinegar, high acid), ethanol (or chemical preservative is the traditional methods of food storage. But these small molecules food ingredients can reduce water activity, make the bacteria, and affect protein and change the cell morphology and cellular structure, its mechanism is mainly that bacteria dehydration. Due to the large amount of add, so will usually cover or destroy the natural flavor food with society, and the continuous improvement of living standards and consumer health concern to the people and preservative food additives in safety performance is put forward higher request, the researchers began to look to the development of natural antiseptic. In natural antiseptic, a categories, due to its security peptide preservatives non-toxic, even some of human health effects are by people’s attention. This paper will research the most kinds of sources, preservative peptide structure, antibacterial properties, etc, so as to make readers to natural peptide preservatives have a deeper understanding to guide the practice application.
Global glycol market will appear overcapacity
June 13, 2010Newswise - China petrochemical CMAI according to the latest study shows that over the next few years with some large petrochemical projects in the Middle East, the global market in ethylene glycol overcapacity will appear. This year, about 400 tons/year global production of ethylene glycol production, when the current global ethanol market has slowed, especially in Asia. 2009 global demand for 1780 tons of ethylene glycol, is expected to be reached by 2014, 236 million tons, and productivity in 2010 will reach 2540 tons/year, an increase of 15% in 2009.
Sinopec into the world’s third-largest oil company
June 12, 2010By the end of 2009, China’s oil processing capacity has once by 2000 tons of jumping to three million 2.76), the second, sinopec ranks third big oil has become the company.
According to China’s chemical newspaper reported on June 9th, the Chinese domestic oil refining industry since the turn of industrial restructuring big, in the deepening of reform and opening-up, the rapid economic development, overcome various difficulties, rapid rise. In the global financial crisis in the first out of the abyss, picks up recovery. At present, China has become the world’s main window, oil refining industry area and important part. Overall, the refining industry presents the main characteristics of the following five aspects:
Refinery capacity continues to grow rapidly
By the end of 2009, China has a processing capacity of crude oil in 2000 to three million tons 2.76), the second ranks. In the first ten years after entering the new century, China has surged 72.8% refining capacity, become the founding of refining capacity increment in 60 years, the fastest growth in 10 years. Sinopec has become the world’s third-largest oil companies, petrochina has become the world’s eighth-largest oil company. 2009, sinopec, petrochina and crude oil processing ability reach a 2.235 million tons and tons of 1.425 respectively, the productivity of the show and 29.9%. 2009 May build cnooc 1,200 tons/year of production, refining capacity of huizhou refinery to 1,950 tons/year, accounts for the population capacity. Always taking place in 2008 8,805 tons of oil refining capacity.
Refinery scale unceasingly expands, intensive degree of continuous improvement
Currently China has 17 million tons refinery bases, domestic refining capacity thousand tons of crude oil refinery above the processing ability has a total processing capacity of nearly 50%. Dalian petrochemical and refining enterprise cooperates zhenhai two tried to reach 2,000 tons/year. Another batch of 1000 tons refinery bases are stepping up construction or planning. By 2010, China will be formed around 20 million tons of crude oil processing base, its total processing capacity of the total capacity of 65%, Refining enterprise average scale attaining 5.7 million tons/year. China has formed a large-scale integrated refinery bases.
Refining structure adjusting and optimizing continuously
At present, the general trend of crude oil quality is heavier, sulfur, metal tended to be more content, high processing increasingly difficult. But the market of light oil products, low sulfur and sulfur clean fuel, high quality oil chemical raw materials, the requirements of environment protection is more and more urgent, and high standard, so must be equipped with adequate processing capacity and capability. In recent years, China has been in the refining unit, precision processing, constantly adjust ability to continuously improve. As to improve the quality of oil refining, China’s hydrotreating ability in proportion, and constantly improve the ability of crude oil from the 15.55% 2000 to 30.87% 2008.
Oil-refining by high efficiency, low profitability
The first half of 2008 international oil prices continue to high, cause huge domestic prices down on our practies factors such as oil refining industry caused great impact and influence. Due to the influence of the global financial crisis, domestic oil demand growth slowed, but once refinery China successfully meet the various negative effects, contrarian rise, out of a wave from low to high, in the process of crude oil to achieve the profitability of oil production and processing capacity ShuangZengChang. 2009 refinery profits return, about 800 million yuan, and in 2008, compared with 2007 increased 1,700 million yuan of loss.
Quality upgrading accelerated
Production in China is clean oil refining industry development. Since the new century, China’s oil quality upgrading in less than 10 years passed European countries 20-30 years through the road. Since 1997, after realizing free-plumburm gasoline in 2003 was implemented nationwide national new gasoline and diesel, gasoline sulfur standard from 2,000 x 10-6 to 10-6, 8 sulfur diesel from 5,000 x 10-6 to 2,000 x 10-6.
From 1 July 2005, China petrol sulfur to 500 x further 10-6. Beijing, March 2008, the implementation of the new standard Ⅳ European standards, vehicle gasoline and diesel sulfur are to 50 (10-6, ultra clean fuel level. Shanghai world expo, in order to meet from 23 October 2009 will be from the current vehicle gasoline standard of transition to Shanghai Ⅳ Ⅱ directly. According to the country by the end of 2009, the requirements of domestic automotive gasoline Ⅲ standard, all countries in 2010 to all diesel Ⅲ standards.
Looking into the new century, China’s second 10 years and refining industry is faced with low carbon economy and developing economy era after the financial crisis in the world political situation and petrochemical industry structure adjustment, change the situation, isshouldering the national economic development needs, meet for the development of the national economy by 2020 target of contribution.
China’s oil industry has entered a big strong historical development in the new period. China’s future refinery development effort will transform the economic growth mode, through adjusting structure, backward production, rational layout, optimize resource allocation and market, promoting scientific and technological innovation, promoting integration and the base construction, refining the project decision-making, grasp of appropriate investment rhythm, continue to increase strength, scale continuous improve profitability and international competitiveness, maintain stable and rapid development of industry, true to the oil refinery powers of the power.
But also to see clearly, China in the future development of oil refining industry is facing many challenges. First, China’s foreign dependence on oil in the next 10 years will have 60 and 70% breakthrough. Because of heavy oil and the decreasing trend of qualitative, so use more inferior heavy oil production in China will be clean oil refining industry’s main task. Secondly, low carbon economy on environmental protection request higher efficiency of energy conservation and emission reduction, and taking more clean oil pressure will increase to further speed up the pace of upgrading product, related investment will increase in oil refinery, high risk, other costs increased significantly increased the pressure will also. Finally, because the economic globalization and China’s opening to the development and deepening, from neighboring countries and regions will increase imports, some developed countries and the resources of the country’s oil refining investment will continue to increase, based on the existing domestic oil-refining market diversification competition will worsen.
Friendship is love, light faint
June 10, 2010Have a friend, I think that is a kind of being in love and friendship relationship, you will miss him at once, silently, in the heart of his warm, have a better, a move.

You will be because the song, a kind of color, reminded him of his sincere, persistence, and reminded him of his together ever experienced disturbances. Because there is such a friend, you can cherish their life, love of your life, because you know him hope you have very good, he hoped you can look after himself, meet again, he hoped you can tell him that you are very happy.
The secular ideas, in your heart, because of his existence and become pale, you just for the people in the innermost set a small space, still clinging to the memories of you knew from the beginning, you won’t have any love between, seem to talk about love and blasphemed the emotion, it is a kind of friendship. What is going on here? You want for many years, but have no idea.
You rarely contact, in the long life, you may have only a few days we spent together at each other, but one of the heart are retained a miss, a charge, even if he went to faraway places, even over many years, even when they meet again, already was not content is not, you will still so deep remember such a person, this is enough.
