Sabores Naturales

Natural flavors are complex mixtures of aromatic chemicals derived from natural sources like plants or animals. They are created through physical processes such as distillation or extraction, or by using enzymes or fermentation. These flavors are intended to mimic tastes found in nature.

Manufacturers use natural flavors to add or enhance taste in a wide variety of foods and beverages. They are commonly found in products like candies, baked goods, dairy products, and beverages, where they contribute to specific fruit, spice, or savory profiles.

Natural flavors are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like the FDA and EFSA have evaluated flavorings, and while specific evaluations for every natural flavor compound may not be publicly detailed, they are considered safe at typical consumption levels. There are no widespread health controversies associated with the typical use of natural flavors.
