Change One ** Preservatives/Antioxidants ** Absolutes & Safety

[Guest guest]

Hey y'all,

 

> Vitamin E is an antioxidant, not a preservative. Many folks confuse

> preservatives and antioxidants .. the latter being agents that inhibit

> micro biological growth.

 

Was typing faster than I was thinking .. my statement pertained to the

first sentence .. not the second, where I switched the two agents. ;-)

 

So in that case .. it should have read:

 

" The former being agents that inhibit micro biological growth. "

 

And to make sure its perfectly clear .. even to me ..

 

Preservatives inhibit critter growth.

Antioxidants prevent oxidation.

 

Done. ;-) Butch
