📢🆕 We've updated our safety assessment of #CalciumCarbonate (E 170) when used as #FoodAdditive
No safety concerns associated with exposure to E 170 per se. However, intake of aluminium, which can be present as an impurity in E 170, represents a concern

Re Our experts recommend that risk managers introduce purity limits for aluminium in E 170 & that they reduce the amount of #aluminium in food
