This study was to analyze the risk of sulfites in food consumed by the Chinese people and assess the health protection capability of maximum-permitted level (MPL) of sulfites in GB 2760-2011. Sulfites as food additives are overused or abused in many food categories. When the MPL in GB 2760-2011 was used as sulfites content in food, the intake of sulfites in most surveyed populations was lower than the acceptable daily intake (ADI). Excess intake of sulfites was found in all the surveyed groups when a high percentile of sulfites in food was in taken. Moreover, children aged 1-6 years are at a high risk to intake excess sulfites. The primary cause for the excess intake of sulfites in Chinese people is the overuse and abuse of sulfites by the food industry. The current MPL of sulfites in GB 2760-2011 protects the health of most populations.
本研究旨在分析中国人食用食品中二氧化硫的风险,并评估GB 2760-2011中二氧化硫最大使用量(MPL)对健康的保护能力。二氧化硫作为食品添加剂在许多食品类别中被过度使用或滥用。当将GB 2760-2011中的MPL用作食品中二氧化硫的含量时,大多数被调查人群的二氧化硫摄入量低于每日允许摄入量(ADI)。当摄入食品中二氧化硫的高百分位数时,所有被调查群体均发现有二氧化硫摄入过量的情况。此外,1至6岁的儿童摄入过量二氧化硫的风险较高。中国人二氧化硫摄入过量的主要原因是食品行业对二氧化硫的过度使用和滥用。GB 2760-2011中目前的二氧化硫MPL可保护大多数人群的健康。
