E 333 - Calcium citrates | E-Number Information

Characteristics

Additive NameCalcium citrates

E No.E 333

TypeIndividual Substance

In plain language

A naturally derived acidity regulator and stabiliser made from citric acid — the same acid found in lemons and oranges — combined with calcium. Used in preserved fruits, vegetables, jams, jellies, and seafood products to control acidity, prevent browning, and maintain texture. It also adds a small amount of dietary calcium. One of the more benign additives on the list. Widely approved by EFSA, FDA, and WHO. No significant safety concerns at typical food doses. People with kidney disease who need to limit calcium or citrate intake should be mindful of its presence.
