Mineral oils from the packagings
During our lifetime, we can eat up to 40 decagrams of food-soluble packaging materials, and surprisingly, even solid materials can dissolve in each other. The mineral content of the paper packaging material can get into the food, which is particularly dangerous and therefore the European Union regulates the issue in its recent recommendation.
With the data of the regulations of the European Union in force, it is estimated that in our lifetime we consume 30-40 dkg of compounds from packagings. Meanwhile, we do not think of the actual material of the packaging materials, but of the components that are released from them: monomers, oligomers, stabilizers, plasticizers, lubricants, dyes, foaming agents and other unintentionally impregnated packaging materials. These include mineral oils, mainly from paper products.
