So, what is povidona?
Povidone, also known as povidona or polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), is a water-soluble polymer used in the food industry as a stabilizer, binder, and thickener. It is commonly used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food applications such as bakery products, confectionery, and beverages. Povidone is known for its ability to improve texture and shelf-life of food products, while also enhancing the taste and color. It is a safe and versatile ingredient that is often used as an alternative to gelatin in vegetarian and vegan products. Povidone is an essential ingredient in many food formulations and is approved by regulatory bodies worldwide.
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.
