Food analysis

Food analysis involves testing and measuring the components of food to understand its nutritional content, safety, and quality. It includes checking for nutrients like proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals, as well as detecting contaminants, additives, or spoilage. This process ensures that food products meet regulatory standards, are safe to consume, and provide accurate information to consumers. Techniques used in food analysis can range from laboratory tests to specialized equipment, helping producers, regulators, and consumers make informed decisions about what they eat.
