Surprising Science! ~ Hidden Dangers in Some of Your Food

How do we know what is in food? Prof Barlow brings us through various ways. One is to look at the food label, which is a good guide to the major components of a food product. The label also indicates specific components that we might have to avoid if we have food allergies or food intolerance. Sometimes it is necessary to conduct laboratory testing to find out what else might be in our food. This would include looking for contaminants such as pesticide residues or the presence of toxic metals. As we cannot see bacterial contamination, it may also be necessary to screen foods for the presence of pathogenic bacteria.
