Voshol, Ph.D., Assistant Professor in Integrative Physiology of Lipids and Glucose, Leiden University Medical Center, Finally, a list of the top twelve additives to avoid. I now have a trusted resource regarding the ‘loaded’ issue of food additives and the conflicting information about these additives in our food supply.
