What it is

Calcium pyrophosphate is a white, crystalline powder. It is a salt made from calcium and pyrophosphoric acid. It is often produced synthetically for use in food.

Why it's used

At typical intake levels found in food, it is not associated with adverse health effects. Evidence does not suggest significant health concerns.
