What it is
Sodium phosphate tribasic is a salt made from sodium and phosphate. It is manufactured industrially by reacting phosphoric acid with a sodium source like sodium hydroxide. It is a white powder that dissolves in water.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add sodium phosphate tribasic to foods to help control acidity and to improve texture. It can act as an emulsifier, helping to blend ingredients that normally wouldn't mix, like oil and water. It is often found in processed cheeses, dairy products, and some baked goods.
Health notes
In the United States, sodium phosphate tribasic is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated phosphates and set acceptable daily intakes. High intake of phosphates, particularly from processed foods, has been linked in some studies to potential negative health effects, but evidence is mixed and more research is needed. The FDA continues to monitor scientific evidence regarding food additives.
Allergen info
Sodium phosphate tribasic is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
