So, what is natriumascorbat?
Natriumascorbat, also known as sodium ascorbate, is a sodium salt of ascorbic acid, which is a form of vitamin C. This food ingredient is commonly used as a food additive in various processed foods, such as cured meats, sausages, and canned goods, to enhance their flavor, texture, and shelf life. Natriumascorbat is also used as a dietary supplement, particularly for those who cannot consume sufficient vitamin C from their diets alone. Due to its antioxidant properties, natriumascorbat is believed to boost the immune system, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy skin.
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.
