Fresh Aid is an additive used in types of shelf life improvement systems and was developed (patented) as a food preservation by organic acids technology (FUOAS). With almost no changes in flavor or physical properties of food, it is particularly effective at suppressing the propagation of microorganisms in acidic environments due to the pH balancing effect of organic acids.
This effect can be synergistically increased by combining this product with Sodium Lactate.
