Contents 1 Commercial use in wine 2 Commercial use in other food 3 Health risks 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Commercial use in wine Sulfites occur naturally in all wines to some extent.1 Sulfites are commonly introduced to arrest fermentation at a desired time, and may also be added to wine as preservatives to prevent spoilage and oxidation at several stages of the winemaking. In the US, wine bottled after mid-1987 must have a label stating that they contain sulfites if they contain more than 10 parts per million.2 In the EU an equivalent regulation came into force in November 2005.3 Organic wines are not necessarily sulfite-free.2 Commercial use in other food Sulfites are often used as preservatives in dried fruits, and dried potato products. Most beers no longer contain sulfites. Although shrimp is sometimes treated with sulfites on fishing vessels, the chemical may not appear on the label. In 1986, the Food and Drug Administration in the United States banned the addition of sulfites to all fresh fruit and vegetables which are usually eaten raw. Health risks Sulfites are sometimes added to foods to act as enhancers or preservatives. They may come in various forms, such as:4 Sulfur dioxide Potassium bisulfite or potassium metabisulfite Sodium bisulfite, sodium metabisulfite or sodium sulfite Some humans are allergic to sulfites. It is an undeclared allergen that may cause breathing difficulty within minutes after eating a food containing sulfites.5 Asthmatics and people with allergies to aspirin also known as salicylate sensitivity are at an elevated risk for reaction to sulfites.5 The reaction can be fatal and requires immediate treatment at an emergency room, and can include sneezing, swelling of the throat, and hives. Those who are allergic to sulfites are urged to avoid products that could contain them.
