E522, or potassium aluminium sulphate, is an additive commonly used in the food industry as a stabilizer and acidity regulator.
It is used in various products such as baking, dairy products, as well as in the production of beer and wine. Potassium aluminium sulphate may also be present in some dietary products, such as certain types of gluten-free products or sugar substitutes.
Potassium aluminium sulphate is non-caloric and does not contain carbohydrates.
However, it is worth noting that some studies associate the consumption of aluminium with negative health consequences, such as adverse effects on the nervous system and links to the development of certain diseases.
