Estimates of the annual utilization of additives in the United Kingdom were combined with the assumptions that 32% of the UK production is exported and that 20% of food purchased is wasted. The calculation resulted in an estimated intake of 0.53 g of synthetic additives per person per day, or 440 ppm in a daily diet of 1200 g. It was suggested that this food additive intake would comprise preservatives, antioxidants, colors, emulsifiers, and phosphates.
