E527, also known as sodium bicarbonate, is a food additive used in the food industry as an acidity regulator.
Sodium bicarbonate is commonly used in the production of unleavened dough, such as pancakes or crepes.
The additive E527 is generally considered safe for consumption, but excessive consumption of sodium bicarbonate can lead to some side effects, such as excessive gas formation or an imbalance in the body’s acid-base equilibrium.
Products where E527 is most commonly found include unleavened dough, various frozen semi-finished products, and some types of canned vegetables.
