So, what is natriumalginat?
Natriumalginat is a natural ingredient commonly used in the food industry as a thickener and stabilizer. It is derived from seaweed and has a unique ability to form a gel when mixed with water, making it a popular choice in a variety of food products, including sauces, dressings, and dairy products. Natriumalginat also has emulsifying properties, which allows it to help ingredients mix together more effectively, resulting in a smoother and creamier texture. Additionally, this ingredient is often used as a substitute for traditional gelatin in vegan and vegetarian recipes due to its plant-based origin.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
