Role in food

Manufacturers use enzymes as processing aids to improve the texture, yield, or shelf-life of …

What it is

Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions. They are often derived from microorganisms like bacteria or fungi, or from plant or animal sources. The enzymes used in food processing are typically produced through fermentation and then purified.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use enzymes as processing aids to improve the texture, yield, or shelf-life of foods. They can be used in baking to improve dough handling, in dairy to aid in cheese making, or in fruit and vegetable processing. In the products listed, they may help with texture or prevent ingredients from clumping.

Health notes

Enzymes used as processing aids are generally not present in the final food product or are present at very low levels. The FDA considers many enzymes to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for their intended use. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have also evaluated various enzymes. There are no widespread health concerns associated with the typical consumption of foods containing residual enzymes.

Allergen info

Enzymes themselves are proteins, and while they can be derived from major allergens like wheat or soy, they are typically purified to remove allergenic proteins. Therefore, they are not usually considered a major allergen in the final food product. Gluten is not a concern unless the enzyme source is specifically stated as gluten-containing.
