Health care products

Aluminium is low and variable in foods. Possibly essential, evidence not conclusive. Deficiency unknown. Leavening agent: as sodium aluminum sulfate (Na2SO4
Al2(SO4)3). Texture modifier.

Bromine – source Brominated flour. Not known to be essential to humans. Dough improver: KBrO3 improves baking quality of wheat flour.

Calcium – source dairy products, green leafy vegetables, tofu, fish bones.  Essential nutrient: deficiency leads to osteoporosis in later life. Texture modifier: forms gels with negatively charged macromolecules such as alginates, low-methoxyl pectins, soy proteins, caseins, etc. Firms canned vegetables when added to canning brine.

Copper – source Organ meats, seafood, nuts, seeds. Essential nutrient: deficiency rare. Catalyst: lipid peroxidation, ascorbic acid oxidation, non-enzymatic oxidative browning. Colour modifier: may cause black discoloration in canned, cured meats. Enzyme cofactor: polyphenoloxidase. Texture stabiliser: stabilises egg-white foams.

Iodine – source Iodised salt, seafood, plants and meat from animals grown in areas where soil iodine is not depleted. Essential nutrient: deficiency produces goitre and cretinism. Dough improver: KIO3 improves baking quality of wheat flour.

Iron – source cereals, legumes, meat, contamination from iron utensils and soil, enriched foods. Essential nutrient: deficiency leads to anaemia, impaired immune response, reduced productivity, impaired cognitive development in children. Excessive iron stores may increase risk of cancer and heart disease. Catalyst: Fe2+ and Fe3+ catalyse lipid
peroxidation in foods. Colour modifier. Colour of fresh meat depends on valence of Fe in myoglobin and hemoglobin: Fe2+ is red, Fe3+ is brown. Forms green, blue or black complexes with polyphenolic compounds. Reacts with S2 to form black FeS in canned foods. Enzyme cofactor: lipoxygenase, cytochromes, ribonucleotide reductase, etc.

Magnesium – source Whole grains, nuts, legumes, green leafy vegetables. Essential nutrient: deficiency rare. Colour modifier: removal of Mg from chlorophyll changes colour from green to olive-brown.

Manganese – source Whole grains, fruits, vegetables. Essential nutrient: deficiency extremely rare. Enzyme cofactor: pyruvate carboxylase, superoxide dismutase.

Nickel – source Plant foods. Essential nutrient: deficiency in humans unknown. Catalyst: hydrogenation of vegetable oils – finely divided, elemental Ni is the most widely used catalyst for this process.

Phosphates - Ubiquitous. Essential nutrient: deficiency rare due to presence in virtually all foods. Acidulent: H3PO4 in soft drinks. Leavening acid: Ca(HPO4)2 is a fast-acting leavening acid. Moisture retention in meats: sodium tripolyphosphate improves moisture retention in cured meats. Emulsification aid: phosphates are used to aid emulsification in comminuted meats and in processed cheeses.

Potassium – source Fruits, vegetables, meats. Essential nutrient: deficiency rare. Salt substitute: KCl may be used as a salt substitute. May cause bitter flavour. Leavening agent: potassium acid tartrate.

Selenium – source Seafood, organ meats, cereals (depending on levels in soil). Essential nutrient: Keshan disease (endemic cardiomyopathy in China) was associated with selenium deficiency. Low selenium status may be associated with increased risk for cancer and heart disease. Enzyme cofactor: glutathione peroxidase.

Sodium – source Food additives, milk, low in most raw foods. Essential nutrient: deficiency is rare; excessive intakes may lead to hypertension. Flavour modifier: NaCl elicits the classic salty taste in foods. Preservative: NaCl may be used to lower water activity in foods. Leavening agents: many leavening agents are sodium salts, e.g. sodium bicarbonate,
sodium aluminium sulphate, sodium acid pyrophosphate.

Sulphur – Widely distributed. Essential nutrient: a constituent of the essential amino acids methionine and cystine. Sulphur amino acids may be limiting in some diets. Browning inhibitor: sulphur dioxide and sulphites inhibit both enzymatic and non-enzymatic browning. Widely used in dried fruits. Anti-microbial: prevents, controls microbial
growth. Widely used in wine making.
Zinc – source Meats, cereals Essential nutrient: deficiency produces loss of appetite, growth retardation, skin changes. Marginal deficiency exists in US and Europe but extent is unknown. Pronounced deficiency was documented in
populations in the Middle East. ZnO is used in the lining of cans for protein rich foods to lessen formation of black FeS during heating. Zn can be added to green beans to help stabilise the colour during canning.

Excess zinc supplementation affects the absorption of copper. Too much vitamin C can impair its metabolism. Copper is a component of superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme; and it is necessary for the production of ATP, adenosine triphosphate, the body’s energy source. Synthesis of collagen, certain hormones, and enzymes depend on copper.

High levels of copper may aggravate PMS and it can be increased by the use of birth control pills. Excess copper can  cause mental and emotional problems and may be prominent in schizophrenia. Anemia not helped by iron may be an
indication of elevated copper levels. Serum copper, elevated by estrogens, rises progressively during pregnancy and  takes several months to return to normal after delivery, during which time the mineral could be a factor in the  depression and psychosis women often experience right after giving birth. Excess copper may be getting into
the diet from contaminated food and water and copper pipes through which drinking water flows.
