Glyceride and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet

Glycerol, also referred to as glycerin or e422, is a simple polyol compound. It is widely used in the food industry due to its sweet taste and moisture-retaining properties. Glycerol can be derived from both animal and plant sources, which makes its source of origin important for those with dietary restrictions.
