Mono and Di-glycerides and the Dairy Free Diet
Mono and di-glycerides, also known as E471, are types of emulsifiers used in various food products to improve texture and shelf life. These compounds are derived from fatty acids, which can originate from both animal and plant sources. Their primary function is to help mix ingredients that typically do not blend well, such as oil and water. Due to their variable sourcing, mono and di-glycerides may not always be suitable for vegans unless explicitly labeled as plant-based or vegetable-sourced.
