　　"Food additives in food is a scientific and technological progress,and the use of food additives in food additives or other chemical products is the greatest harm to human beings".Xia Yanbin said that the international and domestic food additives have strict management procedures.Such as approval of a new food additive must carry out a variety of toxicological evaluation,when confirmed that it does not bring harm to the human body,in order to obtain approval and release of multiple departments of the state.There are five basic requirements for determining a food additive,the first one is that the additive does not produce any harm to the human body,and then it is not to cover up the food quality defects,not to reduce the nutritional value of food.So,can included in the use of the list of varieties of food additives,are in a long period of time after many experiments and"five off,cut to err on the side of caution,are strictly stipulated the use range and maximum usage of limited,if used in accordance with the provisions,the safety of food additives is guaranteed.
