When George Burns hit 90 years old, he said “At 90, I need all the
preservatives I can get” and then he went on to celebrate Birthday #100!
I don’t see anything wrong with that.
Read the book In Defense of Food, it explains why preservatives and additives are worse for you than fat in food. Our bodies are not meant to eat these things, and although they’re tasteless and invisible it’s uncertain what they do to us.
Some preservatives aren’t all bad. Everyone needs salt in their diet, and salt is a ‘preservative’.
People can trash preservative on the whole, but we now live in an age where people don’t ‘die young’ from food poisoning, like they did 100 years ago. Preservatives also kill and prevent the bacteria that can make you sick, so it’s a trade off where most doctors agree it’s better to eat safe, clean food, than worry about a few preservatives.
