When it comes to the food additives of Sodium Hexametaphosphate(SHMP), many people will be worried, worrying that even the food -grade Sodium Hexametaphosphate still contains a certain amount of fluoride, which may cause chronic poisoning and fluorosidthia, which will cause calcium in the bones to reduce the calcium in the bones, which will lead to it. Osteopsis and osteoporosis. However, it is worth noting that after a large number of animal experiments and actual investigations, the state has developed the minimum standards for these substances in the food-grade Sodium Hexametaphosphate. As long as the minimum content prescribed by the state is used, the above-mentioned toxic and side effects will not occur.
