What it is

Water is a clear, odorless, tasteless liquid essential for life. It is a chemical compound made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O). Water is found naturally in oceans, lakes, rivers, and rain, and makes up a significant portion of all living organisms.

Why it's used

Water is used in food manufacturing as a solvent, a base for sauces and beverages, and for cleaning. It is a fundamental ingredient in countless processed foods, from baked goods and dairy products to soups and frozen meals, ensuring proper texture and consistency.

Health notes

Water is not regulated as a food additive by the FDA, as it is considered essential for life. Adequate water intake is crucial for overall health, supporting bodily functions like temperature regulation and nutrient transport. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated water's safety and found it to be safe for consumption without setting specific intake limits.
