Studies of experts from the American chemical society revealed anxiety data: diacetile, a widely used flavor in the food industry, can have a negative effect on the human brain. This component contained in popcorn, Margarine and sweets affects beta-amyloid protein, which is associated with the development of Alzheimer's disease.
During laboratory experiments, scientists found that diacyl has the ability to penetrate through a hematoencephalic barrier that protects the brain from pathogens and toxic substances. This property makes it especially dangerous for the nervous system, since the penetration of harmful substances can violate the normal functioning of the brain cells.
One of the key problems is the suppression of the activity of glioxalasis-I protein, which plays an important role in protecting neurons. Inhibition of this mechanism can contribute to the accumulation of toxic substances in brain tissues, which, in turn, increases the risk of degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease.
Employees of the food industry are caused by special concern, who regularly encounter diacetile in the production process. The chronic effect of this substance increases the likelihood of neurodegenerative diseases, which confirms the research data.
Previously, diacyl has already been associated with respiratory problems among industrial enterprises. He caused violations of the respiratory function and general deterioration. New studies add another argument in favor of a revision of its use in food production.
Experts emphasize the need to conduct additional research and develop new security standards. This will minimize the health risks of both workers and consumers, thereby reducing the negative effect on the body.
