Potassium Sorbate

Potassium Sorbate is a potassium salt version of sorbic acid, a polyunsaturated fat used to inhibit mold growth. It is widely used in the food industry and few substances have had the kind of extensive, rigorous, long-term testing that sorbic acid and its salts have had. It breaks down in the body into water and carbon dioxide in the Krebs Cycle. It is commonly used in bacteriostat and preservative in meats, sausage casings, and wines.
