Hahaha... Sept 23 is when Kings of Leon release their new album (I'm a little obsessedlol)
211 is a preservative that is used in drinks... DH and I have found that most liquid food products, vinegar, soy sauce, cordials (apart from some of the Extra Juicy range and some of the Bickfords range) and soft drinks contain it (Schweppes lemonade and coke don't have it- unless they just aren't labelling it)
211 has been shown to alter your DNA and has damaging effects on your liver, it also effects your mitochondira (if the mitochondria is damaged- alot of neuro-degenerative diseases can occur, including that of aging process and parkinsons disease). Combined with vitamin C, it becomes a carconogenic (In combination with ascorbic acid (vitamin C, E300), sodium and potassium benzoate may form benzene, a known carcinogen). Sodium benzoate, which is the culprit, is also an ingredient used to make fireworks (noice!)
Soft drink additive damages DNA: report
I hope you have a fab time in WA Kel!!! How exciting for everyone!
