What it is

Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions. They are naturally found in all living organisms, including plants, animals, and microbes. In food production, enzymes are often produced through fermentation using specific microorganisms.

Why it's used

Enzymes are used in food processing to improve texture, flavor, and shelf life. They can help break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, aiding in processes like cheese making, baking, and brewing. They are commonly found in dairy products, baked goods, and processed meats.

Health notes

Enzymes used in food are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. They are typically broken down during digestion and are not expected to cause adverse health effects at normal consumption levels. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated enzymes, and EFSA also assesses their safety. Evidence does not suggest significant health concerns at typical intake levels.

Allergen info

Enzymes themselves are not typically major allergens. However, if derived from sources like milk, soy, or wheat, they could potentially carry allergenic proteins. Gluten is not typically associated with enzyme preparations unless the source material contains gluten.
