FAQ

What is 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-p-cresol (BHT) and what are its uses?
2,6-Di-tert-butyl-p-cresol (BHT) is a synthetic compound that is used as an antioxidant to prevent food spoilage. It is commonly added to foods to extend their shelf life and preserve their freshness.

How does BHT work as an antioxidant?
BHT works as an antioxidant by inhibiting the oxidation of fats and oils in food products. When fats and oils are exposed to oxygen, they can become rancid and develop off-flavors. BHT helps to prevent this oxidation process from occurring, thus extending the shelf life of the food product.

What are some common applications of BHT?
BHT is commonly used in a wide range of food products, including oils, fats, baked goods, snacks, and meats. It is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and rubber products. Additionally, BHT is used in some industrial applications as a stabilizer for fuels and lubricants.

Is BHT safe to consume?
BHT is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) when used in food products at low levels. However, some studies have raised concerns about potential health risks associated with high levels of BHT consumption. As with any food additive, it is important to consume BHT in moderation.

Can BHT be used in organic or natural products?
BHT is not allowed in products that are certified organic, as it is considered a synthetic compound. However, it is commonly used in conventional food products and other applications where synthetic preservatives are permitted.
