Example questions on food additives and addictive substances
What is the main difference between a food additive and an addictive substance?A food additive is added to food for color, flavor, preservation or texture, while an addictive substance causes compulsive use and dependence. The difference is purpose and effect, not whether the substance is natural.
Which food additive is commonly used as a preservative in acidic foods such as soft drinks and pickles?Sodium benzoate (E211). It inhibits the growth of molds, yeasts and some bacteria in acidic conditions.
True or false: nicotine is an addictive substance because it triggers dopamine release in the brain's reward pathway.True. Nicotine binds to nicotinic receptors and increases dopamine in the reward pathway, which reinforces repeated use.
Which food additive is used to intensify savory, umami flavor?Monosodium glutamate (MSG, E621). It enhances the savory taste of foods, which is why it is common in broths and snack seasonings.
What is tolerance in the context of addictive substances?Tolerance is needing a higher dose to get the same effect. The body adapts to repeated exposure, so the same amount produces a weaker response over time.
