So, what is ácido etilendiaminotetraacético?

Ácido etilendiaminotetraacético (EDTA) es un compuesto orgánico que se utiliza en la industria alimentaria como conservante y estabilizante. Al ser un agente quelante, EDTA se une a metales como el hierro, calcio y magnesio, lo que ayuda a prevenir la oxidación y el deterioro de los alimentos procesados. Además, EDTA también se utiliza en productos farmacéuticos y cosméticos debido a sus propiedades quelantes y su capacidad para mejorar la estabilidad de las formulaciones. Sin embargo, algunos estudios sugieren que el consumo excesivo de EDTA puede tener efectos negativos sobre la salud, por lo que su uso está regulado en muchos países.
