BTMS-50 is the OG, the goat, the go-to softening #emulsifier for making leave-in conditioners. It's the main #conditioner in the Watermelon Green Tea Pudding #DIY recipe. 😎 #recipes #haircare

IDK what my fave emulsifier is yet.🤔I want to try more #ingredients. Unfortunately, the leader right now is something I can't readily find anymore. #DIY #HowtoBeauty #skincare #emulsifier

My fave list, so far...
1. Emulsun (no, that's not a typo)
2. Glyceryl Stearate SE
3. Sucramerge Pro (Sucramulse Pro)

Emulsifiers are widely present in ultra-processed foods. A new #PLOSBiology study reveals that, in mice, maternal #emulsifier consumption during gestation and lactation leads to metabolic and neural impairments in the offspring. #metabolism #diet

This is interesting. Not least because the words #emulsifier and #ultraprocessed don't appear at all.

I can think of one reason why a company that makes a living by substituting fat, salt and sugar with starch, calcium lactate/citrate and acesulfame might want to call for higher taxes on more conventional ingredients. What I can't work out is why the Guardian has chosen not to mention it.

In the meantime, this wheeze might best be served with a bucketful of salt.

Kids are naturally inclined to learn, they just need the time and space to follow their curiosity.

Tonight at dinner, emulsifiers came up as a topic of discussion. 7 yo provided a definition, clearly knew what they are. She learned about them on her own, from a book or podcast.
