Surprising Chemicals In Breads
- Potassium Bromate – used to help breads rise and keep the bread strong and better elasticity so the breads don’t fall apart. It is banned in Canada and the state of California as it is a carcinogen.
- Azodicarbonamide – used in bagel, hamburger buns and other breads. It is used to create foam, plastic and rubber and is a contributing factor to asthmatic symptoms and respiratory illnesses. This can be found in many breads, even those labeled as whole wheat.
