As concerns about the potential health risks of consuming high levels of phosphate in processed meat products grow, food manufacturers are seeking alternative solutions. However, a new study suggests that the current phosphate replacements may have limitations and may not be as effective in preserving the flavor, texture, and appearance of processed meats.

Phosphate is commonly used in processed meat products to enhance moisture retention and improve tenderness. However, research has suggested that consuming high levels of phosphate can lead to some health problems. In response to these concerns, food manufacturers have turned to alternative solutions.

However, there are still unmet needs in existing phosphate alternatives that make it not as effective in preserving the quality of processed meat products. The researchers found that while some of the alternatives could help to maintain moisture retention and tenderness, they were not as effective as phosphate in improving the overall texture, flavor, and appearance of the meat.

CJ FNTs 100% vegan phosphate replacement solution can be a good option in that situation. TasteNrich^® Natural Phosphate Replacement Solution enhances texture by improving water-holding capacity while it satisfies sensory performances. This natural, clean label solution enhances overall quality in texture and taste.

※Clean label: A term referring to food or food ingredients with characteristics such as additive-free, non-GMO, non-allergic, and natural ingredients. It has recently emerged as an important value in the global food market.

According to CJ FNT, TasteNrich^® Natural Phosphate Replacement Solution will be showcased at the upcoming food technology exhibition IFT FIRST. The exhibition is scheduled to take place at the McCormick Place convention center in Chicago, Illinois from July 16th to July 19th, 2023. Visitors to the CJ FNT's booth will have the opportunity to learn about the latest advances in food technology and see firsthand how CJ FNT's Natural Phosphate Replacement Solution can help to enhance the texture and taste of processed meat products.
