කැන්සර් හැදෙන්නේ නැතුව හිටියොත් තමා පුදුමේ.
Emulsifiers and Thickeners
Sodium Stearoyl-2-Lactylate (INS 481) & Distilled Monoglycerides (INS 471):
The Risk: These are common emulsifiers used to improve bread texture and extend shelf life. Emerging gut health research suggests that a high intake of certain dietary emulsifiers may alter the gut microbiota, potentially promoting low-grade intestinal inflammation and metabolic syndrome.
Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (INS 466):
The Risk: This is a thickener/stabilizer. Similar to emulsifiers, some animal and in-vitro studies suggest that carboxymethyl cellulose can disrupt the protective mucus layer of the gut, which may trigger inflammation or aggravate symptoms for individuals with cancerous Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).
3. Preservatives and Texturizers
Calcium Propionate (INS 282):
The Risk: This is an anti-fungal agent used to prevent mold. While generally recognized as safe, some behavioral studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that propionates may trigger migraines, headaches, or behavioral changes (like irritability or restlessness) in hyper-sensitive individuals and young children.
Acetylated Distarch Adipate (INS 1422):
The Risk: A chemically modified food starch used to improve texture. It is generally harmless, but in very high quantities, modified starches can sometimes cause mild digestive discomfort, bloating, or gas.
Sugar & Refined Wheat Flour:
The Risk: Refined flours and added sugars cause rapid spikes in blood glucose and insulin levels. Over time, a diet high in these ingredients can contribute to weight gain, insulin resistance, and an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes.
RBD Palm Olein (Refined, Bleached, and Deodorized Palm Oil): * The Risk: Palm oil is high in saturated fats. Frequent consumption of industrial palm oil is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, as it can raise LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels.
