Cellulose gum, derived from the cellulose found in plant cell walls, is a widely used food additive. It’s produced by chemically modifying natural cellulose to create a water-soluble fiber that acts as a thickener, binder, or stabilizer in various foods. Commonly found in sauces, ice creams, baked goods, and beverages, cellulose gum helps improve texture and consistency without significantly altering taste. While not traditionally associated with any specific cuisine, it is a staple ingredient in processed foods across global diets. Cellulose gum is considered safe for consumption and contributes negligible calories due to its indigestible nature, making it a popular choice in low-calorie or low-fat products. However, it offers little nutritional value and excessive reliance on processed foods containing cellulose gum may limit the intake of more nutrient-dense whole foods. Moderation and a balanced diet are key to maintaining health when consuming products with this additive.
