Prioritising Your Gut Health with Aitch's Biltong

When it comes to what we eat, we all want to make choices that taste good and are good for us. That’s why at Aitch's Biltong, we’re all about keeping things natural and delicious—right here in Hong Kong.

Why We Care About Preservatives

Preservatives are essential for extending the shelf life of food. However, modern additives such as sodium benzoate and nisin are more complex and can have unintended health effects. Recent research highlights that while these preservatives prevent spoilage, they might also disrupt our gut microbiome, which is vital for digestion, immunity, and overall health.

A study from the University of Chicago found that nisin, a common preservative, can kill beneficial gut bacteria alongside harmful ones. This disruption may lead to a less balanced gut microbiome, making us more vulnerable to pathogens. As Dr. Zhenrun Zhang noted, the impact of such preservatives on gut health is a significant concern, underscoring the importance of understanding what goes into our food.
