How NOVA works

The NOVA classification assigns food products into 4 groups based on their degree of processing: 1. Unprocessed or minimally processed foods 2. Processed culinary ingredients 3. Processed foods 4. Ultra-processed food and drink products

Additives

E250 - Sodium nitrite EFSA overexposure risk: highPreservative

Sodium nitrite (E250) is a salt used for curing and preserving meat products.

It plays a critical role in preventing the growth of Clostridium botulinum, the bacterium responsible for botulism, in cured meats like bacon, ham, and sausages. It also provides the characteristic pink color and flavor.

However, nitrites can react with amines in the stomach to form nitrosamines, which are potent carcinogens. High intake of processed meats containing nitrites is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Regulatory bodies have set strict limits on its use in food.

E252 - Potassium nitrate EFSA overexposure risk: highPreservative

POTASSIUM NITRATE is a chemical compound with the chemical formula KNO3. The widespread adoption of nitrate use is more recent and is linked to the development of large-scale meat processing. potassium nitrate is still used in some food applications, such as salami, dry-cured ham, charcuterie.
