Sunflower Seed Oil Glycerides
Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)
Sunflower Seed Oil Glycerides, also known as Sodium Gluconate or E576, is a chemical substance produced from vegetable oils, specifically sunflower seed oil. It is a type of natural emulsifier, which means that it is capable of combining oils and water into a homogeneous mixture. Sunflower Seed Oil Glycerides is naturally present in many plants and is widely used in the food industry as a stabilizer, plasticizer, humectant, emulsifier and preservative.
One of the main benefits of Sunflower Seed Oil Glycerides is that it is suitable for consumption and external use. In the food industry, this compound is mainly used in products such as cakes, pastries, ice cream, salads and salad dressings because it improves the consistency and helps to extend their shelf life. As far as the cosmetic industry is concerned, this emulsifier is found in many skin care, hair care and cosmetic products. The advantage is that it does not leave a greasy film and moisturizes the skin. It is considered safe even for sensitive skin. We can also find Sodium Gluconate in pharmaceutical products, where it is used in powder mixtures and tablets for its ability to improve the dispersion of active ingredients.
