Details
Definition
A combination of sodium and phosphate that can vary based on the usage.
AKAs
Disodium Phosphate,Monosodium Phosphate,Trisodium Phosphate,Sodium tripolyphosphate,Tetrasodium pyrophosphate,Sodium hexameta-phosphate,Sodium Phosphates,Sodium aluminum phosphate
Health Impact
High levels of added phosphate may elevate mortality rates for the general public, and is especially concerning for those with kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Researchers have linked high phosphate levels to accelerated aging and vascular damage.
