A thickener and stabiliser produced through bacterial fermentation of sugars — technically natural in origin, though highly processed. Found in salad dressings, sauces, gluten-free baked goods, dairy alternatives, and baby foods. It gives products that smooth, gel-like texture that holds together well. Generally considered very safe by EFSA and FDA. Some people with sensitive digestion may experience bloating or gas at higher intakes, but typical food amounts are well tolerated. One of the more reliable and widely trusted thickeners in modern food production.
