Product Description



Sodium Metabisulfite is commonly used as a food preservative for dried foods, like potato chips, raisins and apples, as well as fruit concentrate juices. As a food product, the safe daily intake of sodium metabisulfite has been determined to be about .7 grams per kilogram of body weight. However, those with allergies to sulfites -- often exhibited by rashes, hives and wheezing - might try to steer clear of this preservative altogether.
