围绕食品添加剂的安全性越来越担心,用于延长保质期,增强味道和改善质地。

磷酸二钠是一种常见的食品添加剂,在许多类型的加工食品中发现,例如谷物,奶酪,苏打水和烘焙食品。

虽然食品和药物管理局(FDA)认为安全,但有些证据表明磷酸盐等磷酸钠等磷酸盐可能会损害您的健康状况( 1 )。

“磷酸钠”是指一组磷衍生的食品添加剂.

These additives are made from various combinations of sodium (salt) and inorganic phosphate, a phosphorus-derived chemical compound.

磷是一种重要的矿物,天然存在于牛奶,豆类,肉类,鱼类,鸡蛋,家禽和螺母等食物中。

这种类型的天然磷,称为有机磷,对于骨骼健康,细胞修复,肌肉收缩和神经功能是必不可少的,以及其他重要过程( 2 )。

Inorganic phosphorus includes phosphorus-derived food additives like trisodium phosphate, which are added to foods as an ingredient.

磷酸二钠是最常见的磷酸钠添加剂之一,并且可以在各种食物中找到。

它和其他磷酸盐添加剂常常用于快餐和其他高处加工的产品。

概括

磷酸二钠是含有钠和无机磷酸钠的食品添加剂。磷酸钠添加剂通常在高处加工的食物中发现。

磷酸三钠和其他磷酸钠添加剂在食品工业中有多种用途,并在许多商业上制备的产品中发现。

它们用于减少酸度并改善食物中的纹理,如烘焙食品和肉类。

They also act as leavening agents in baked goods, meaning they help dough rise and maintain its form.

例如,磷酸三钠是储存的面包,蛋糕,松饼和蛋糕混合物中的普遍成分,因为它可以增加这些物品的蓬松和高度的能力。

它通常还增加了肉类和海鲜产品,如培根,香肠,熟食肉类和罐头金枪鱼,以帮助保留水分,增加保质期,并防止腐败( 3 )。

Additionally, sodium phosphate additives help balance out the pH levels of these foods, keeping them from becoming too acidic or alkaline, which can cause food to spoil more quickly.

此外,磷酸钠添加剂充当加工食品中的增稠或致密剂,并使加工奶酪产品中的油和水分离( 4 )。

概括

磷酸钠添加剂用于许多加工食品中以改善质地,有助于烘焙食品上升,防止腐败,增加保质期。

虽然某些类型的phosp钠hate are used in cleaning and paint products, it’s important to know that these are not the same as food-grade sodium phosphate.

全世界使用食品级磷酸钠,并被FDA和欧盟等重大监管机构确认为安全( 1 )。

Consuming small amounts of foods that contain sodium phosphate is most likely not harmful to your health.

However, since many people consume fast food, processed meats, and packaged foods on a daily basis, there is concern that high levels of sodium phosphate can harm the body.

有机磷,天然存在于食品中乳制品和肉类,比加工食品加入的无机磷(磷酸钠)的无机磷(磷酸钠)具有更低较低且较慢的吸收率。

有机磷比无机磷吸收得多。

消化系统仅吸收40-60%的有机磷,而它吸收到谷物,蛋糕,苏打水和熟食等食物中发现的100%无机磷( 5 )。

由于无机磷通过消化道更有效地吸收,因此它会影响与有机磷不同的身体。

吃太多含有磷酸钠添加剂的食物可以将体内的磷酸盐水平提高到不健康的水平。

Studies have linked high levels of phosphate with conditions such as heart disease, decreased bone density, premature aging, kidney issues, and even early death ( 3 , 5 )。

概括

磷酸钠添加剂比自然来源更有效地吸收。虽然消耗少量磷酸钠可能是安全的,但吃太多的磷酸钠会导致体内磷的不健康水平。

While consuming too much sodium phosphate is not good for anyone’s health, small amounts of it are considered safe.

Nevertheless, people with certain medical conditions should avoid foods that contain sodium phosphate additives such as trisodium phosphate.

肾病或肾功能衰竭的人

当肾脏正常工作时,它们从血液中滤除废物,包括过量的磷。

然而,当肾脏受到损害时,例如慢性肾脏疾病(CKD)或肾衰竭的人,它们失去了适当排出废物的能力。

肾功能衰竭或高级CKD的人需要限制它们消耗的磷量,以避免高血液水平的磷。

Consuming too much phosphorus can further harm already compromised kidneys by damaging blood vessels and causing abnormal calcium buildup ( 6 )。

事实上,更高的磷液与血液透析血液透析治疗( 7 )。

Those with osteoporosis and osteopenia

A diet high in foods that contain sodium phosphate additives may harm bone health.

保持身体中正常水平的磷是必不可少的强骨头.

然而,通过消耗太多或太少的磷来扰乱这种微妙的平衡可以在骨架系统上造成严重破坏。

For example, a study found that consuming a diet rich in sodium phosphate food additives increased fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), an inhibitor of bone mineralization, by 23% compared to an identical diet low in phosphate additives ( 8 )。

147名前列妇女的另一项研究表明,习惯性高摄取含有磷酸盐添加剂的食物,导致高水平的甲状旁腺激素,一种调节整个身体钙水平的激素( 9 )。

甲状旁腺激素信号信号释放来自骨骼的钙以平衡体钙水平。

具有异常高水平的甲状旁腺激素可以通过引起骨骼过量的钙损失来损害骨骼健康( 10 )。

心情的人

Excessive consumption of sodium phosphate additives can also harm the heart.

事实上,高循环的磷水平与肾脏疾病的人类心脏病的风险增加有关( 11 , 12 )。

Having too much phosphorus in the body can damage the heart by causing the calcification of blood vessels.

2009年的3,015名年轻成人研究发现,磷酸盐血液水平较高与冠状动脉钙化和其他心脏病风险因素增加有关。

Additionally, participants who had serum phosphate levels greater than 3.9 mg/dL had a 52% greater risk of coronary artery calcification 15 years later compared to those with levels below 3.3 mg/dL ( 13 )。

那些患有炎症性肠病的人

已经显示出在动物研究中恶化无机磷的高摄入量。

Studies in both humans and rats have found that elevated phosphorus can cause inflammation in the body ( 14 , 15 )。

Inflammation is at the root of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, which are collectively referred to as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

A recent animal study suggests that a diet high in inorganic phosphate could worsen symptoms associated with IBD.

喂养磷酸盐高的大鼠具有更多的炎症标志物,肠炎症和症状,如血性粪便,比喂养低磷酸饮食的大鼠( 16 )。

概括

Although everyone should limit their intake of foods containing sodium phosphate additives, those with heart conditions, kidney disease, or bone issues should do their best to avoid foods containing it.

Getting the recommended amount of phosphorus through a健康,均衡的饮食isn’t difficult, as organic phosphorus is found naturally in many foods.

但是,如果您在加工食品中消耗富含饮食的饮食,那么您可能会比您的身体需求更好地获得更多的磷,这对您的健康不利。

由于含磷食品添加剂如磷酸二钠的消耗增加,磷的摄入量随着时间的推移而稳步增加。

令人震惊,研究表明,当加工食品中的磷添加剂可以在遵循西化饮食时促进每日总磷的50%( 17 )。

To avoid consuming too much phosphorus in the form of food additives, limit the following:

  • 苏打
  • 熟食肉类
  • 熏肉
  • 香肠
  • 含早餐谷物
  • 商业准备的早餐吧
  • 蛋糕混合
  • 金枪鱼罐头
  • fruit-flavored drinks
  • sweetened iced teas
  • 加工烘焙食品
  • 冷冻晚餐
  • 盒装通心粉和奶酪
  • 快餐
  • 非航空奶精
  • 味道的水域
  • 奶酪酱油

除了含有高水平的磷酸钠添加剂外,加工食品通常很高,脂肪,卡路里和防腐剂,对您的健康不利。

概括

切割磷酸钠添加剂的摄入量,限制食品和饮料,如苏打水,加工的烘焙食品,冷冻晚餐和熟食。

磷酸三钠是一种常见于加工食品的无机磷酸盐添加剂。

虽然消耗少量磷酸钡是安全的,但每天吃富含磷酸盐添加剂的食物可能会损害您的健康。

高磷酸盐水平与肾病,肠炎症,骨密度下降,心脏病,甚至过早死亡。

Limiting foods that contain trisodium phosphate and other phosphate additives is especially important for people with kidney disease, heart conditions, IBD, and osteoporosis.

Minimizing processed foods and focusing on natural sources of phosphorus, such as eggs, fish, beans, and nuts, can help ensure that you are getting the right amount of phosphorus to help your body thrive.
