Food Substitution and Adulteration

Food adulteration is the act of intentionally degrading the quality of food offered for sale either by blending or substituting inferior substances or by removing some valuable ingredient. Globally and in several forms, food adulteration happens and affects nearly all food commodities. Not only is adulteration a major economic concern, but it can also lead to severe health problems for customers.

A food substitute is a nutritional supplement with the intent of replacing one or more meals a day, as the name suggests. Substitutes properly accepted by the medical community provide all of the properties required by the body to remain safe and solid.
