Sodium erythorbate (C₆H₇NaO₆) is a food additive commonly used in meats, poultry, and soft drinks. It is the sodium salt of erythorbic acid and is an antioxidant. In processed meats it speeds up the conversion of nitrite to nitric oxide, aiding in curing and maintaining the pink color. Sodium erythorbate offers no nutritional value, and carries some health risks such as allergies, kidney stones, and even gout. Moderation is key, and always consult your doctor if you have concerns.
