Antioxidants are compounds that prevent or slow down oxidation, a chemical reaction that can damage food and beverages by causing rancidity, color changes, and nutrient loss. They help extend shelf life and maintain quality.Below are the two types of antioxidants
Natural Antioxidants – Found in vitamins (C, E), polyphenols (in fruits, tea), and carotenoids (in carrots, tomatoes).
Synthetic Antioxidants – Such as BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), and TBHQ, commonly used in processed foods.

Citric Acid Anhydrous

Original price was: $ 2.25.Current price is: $ 2.14.

Citric Acid Anhydrous is a white, crystalline organic acid widely used across food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial sectors. It is the anhydrous form of citric acid, meaning it contains no water molecules in its crystal lattice, resulting in higher purity and more concentrated acidic properties compared to its monohydrate form. Derived from natural sources like citrus fruits or produced via microbial fermentation, citric acid anhydrous is valued for its sour taste, excellent chelating ability, and buffering capacity. It serves as a natural preservative, pH adjuster, antioxidant synergist, and cleaning agent, making it a versatile ingredient in many formulations.
