What it is
Sodium phosphate and salt is a combination of two common food ingredients. Sodium phosphates are a group of salts that contain sodium and phosphate. They are often made by combining phosphoric acid with sodium compounds.
Why it's used
This combination is often used to improve moisture retention and flavor in processed meats, poultry, and seafood. It can also act as a leavening agent in baked goods and help stabilize other ingredients in cheese products.
Health notes
Sodium phosphates are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a source of phosphorus, an essential mineral. However, some research suggests that high intake of phosphates from processed foods may be linked to negative health outcomes in certain individuals, particularly those with kidney problems. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated phosphates and established acceptable intake levels.
