So, what is sodium ethylparaben?

Sodium ethylparaben is a chemical compound that is commonly used as a food preservative. It is a sodium salt of ethylparaben, a type of paraben that is often found in cosmetics and personal care products. As a food additive, sodium ethylparaben helps to extend the shelf life of products by preventing the growth of harmful microorganisms. While generally regarded as safe by regulatory bodies, some studies have suggested that parabens may have negative health effects, leading to increased scrutiny of their use in consumer products.
