Is This FDA-Approved Additive To Cheese And Bread Really Safe?

Description

In recent years, scientists have started cautiously warning about the subtle harms to humans that certain food additives may be causing. According to Gizmodo, a new study out Wednesday suggests that the common food preservative propionate could be one of these additives to be worried about. In experiments in both mice and people, it found eating propionate could negatively affect metabolism, including raising resistance to insulin. Proprionate is added to animal feed and human foods like cheese, baked goods, and artificial flavorings as a preservative. Some studies have suggested that propionate can actually help people maintain a healthy metabolism, suppress appetite, and reduce the risk of obesity. But other studies have suggested that people who have more propionate in their system are more likely to be obese and have insulin resistance.
