E326, or sodium lactate, is a food additive used in the food industry as a preservative and acidity regulator.
Sodium lactate is often used in meat and dairy products, canned goods, beer, and other beverages.
Although sodium lactate is not a direct source of carbohydrates, it can trigger a reaction in the body that leads to disruptions in fat metabolism.
When consumed in moderation, sodium lactate is generally considered safe for health. However, excessive consumption may lead to digestive issues and metabolic problems.
