A synthetic emulsifier — it stops oil and water from separating in foods. Found in ice cream, whipped toppings, and some baked goods. Keeps texture smooth and consistent. Generally regarded as safe by EFSA and FDA. However, some animal studies suggest it may alter gut microbiome balance and increase intestinal permeability at high doses. Human evidence is limited, but it's worth noting if you have digestive sensitivities.
