Not at typical food-use levels: it’s permitted with safety limits and isn’t linked to harm for the general population. Some people may be sensitive, and effects seen in animals at high doses are well above normal dietary exposure.
Is polysorbate 80 natural?
No. It’s a synthetic ingredient made from sorbitan (from sorbitol) reacted with ethylene oxide and oleic acid that can be sourced from plants or animals.
What foods contain polysorbate 80?
