Tag: Phosphate alternatives

According to a study in the *International Journal of Community Medicine and Public Health*, research findings suggest a link between high phosphate intake from food additives and potential health issues. This has driven a search for effective and natural alternatives to address what is a substitute for phosphate in meat, a key concern for food manufacturers and consumers alike. These substitutes must replicate the functional benefits of phosphates, such as improving water retention, texture, and flavor, while maintaining a 'clean label' status.

The low mobility of phosphorus in soil means soluble P can be depleted rapidly near plant roots. But how quickly can you replace phosphate in different scenarios, from critical medical care for hypophosphatemia to long-term agricultural soil management, and even industrial processes?
