BHA is a synthetic antioxidant used as a preservative to prevent fats and oils in processed foods from going rancid. It’s commonly found in snacks, cereals, and baked goods.
How It May Affect You:
Potential Cancer Risk: Some animal studies have linked BHA to cancer, particularly in the stomach. However, the FDA still allows its use in food, stating it’s generally recognized as safe at low levels.
Hormone Disruption: BHA may interfere with hormone function, potentially affecting the endocrine system and leading to issues like thyroid problems.
Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may experience allergic reactions or skin irritation when exposed to BHA, especially in large amounts.
How to Avoid It:
To avoid BHA, check food labels for "BHA," "Butylated Hydroxyanisole," or "E320." It is often found in packaged snacks, breakfast cereals, potato chips, and even some gum. Look for products that use natural preservatives like vitamin E (tocopherols), and choose fresh or minimally processed foods that don’t require synthetic preservatives.
