Ceteth-2 and the Pescatarian Diet
Ceteth-2 is a polyethylene glycol ether of cetyl alcohol, primarily used as an emulsifier or surfactant in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. It is a synthetic compound derived from ethoxylation, which involves reacting ethylene oxide with cetyl alcohol. This ingredient helps to mix oil and water components, providing a stable formulation in lotions, creams, and other topical products. Although it is not typically found in food items, its role is crucial in non-food applications for improving texture and consistency.
