Sodium sulfite is a chemical compound, disodium salt of sulphurous acid.

What it is used for and where

Food

It is labeled as E221 in the list of food additives with preservative function.

It improves the ability to knead the bread and used in eggs (1), beer, caramel, baked goods and salads.

Also used in wine.

Although it is used as a generic preservative, it is not allowed in meat products.

Acceptable daily dose: 0.7 mg / kg body weight

It can give allergic reactions (2).

Cosmetics

It is a restricted ingredient as a Relevant Item III/99 and V/9 in the Annexes of the European Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009: "The SCCNFP is of the opinion that inorganic sulfites and bisulfites do not pose a health risk when used in cosmetic products at concentrations up to 0.67% in oxidative hair dye products, up to 6.7 % in hair waving/straightening products, up to 0.45 % in self-tanning products for the face and up to 0.40 % in self-tanning products for the body (all expressed as SO2)" (3). 

Antioxidant agent. Ingredient that counteracts oxidative stress and prevents cell damage. Free radicals, pathological inflammatory processes, reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species are responsible for the ageing process and many diseases caused by oxidation.

Waving and straightening agent for hair. It is an ingredient that enables straightening and/or waving by permanently changing the shape or configuration of the keratinous hair fibres.

Preservative. Any product containing organic, inorganic compounds, water, needs to be preserved from microbial contamination. Preservatives act against the development of harmful microorganisms and against oxidation of the product.

Reducing agent. Ingredient that facilitates permanent hair waving by adjusting the pH to an optimal level.
