Natural Food Preservatives to Represent Tremendous Growth
Preservatives slow down product spoilage caused by mold, air, bacteria, fungi, or yeast. In addition to maintaining the quality of the food, they help control contamination that can cause foodborne illness, including life-threatening botulism.
