Glyceride and the Pescatarian Diet
Glycerin, also referred to as glycerol or glycerides, is a naturally occurring compound found in fats and oils. It is widely used in the food industry due to its properties as a sweetener, humectant, and solvent. Glycerin is hygroscopic, meaning it attracts moisture, which makes it useful in maintaining the moisture content of food products. It can be derived from both plant and animal sources, making it important for those with dietary preferences or restrictions to verify the source.
