食物中鋁的含量風險評估跟進研究報告
A follow-up risk assessment results on aluminium in food

中心最近完成一項有關食物中鋁的含量風險評估跟進研究,結果顯示,本港一些食品廣泛使用含鋁食物添加劑,其中以蒸包或蒸糕、部分烘焙食品(如雞蛋仔和窩夫)及海蜇(可供即食)最為常見。研究亦發現,鋁攝入量一般和攝入量偏高的市民,健康受嚴重影響的機會不大;但若經常食用同一牌子鋁含量高的食品,健康受鋁影響的風險會相應增加。
CFS announced the results of a recently completed follow-up risk assessment study on aluminium in food. The results showed that aluminium-containing food additives were widely used in certain food products available in Hong Kong, in particular steamed bread/bun/cake, some bakery products such as egg waffle and waffle, and jellyfish (ready-to-eat form). The study also found that the average and high consumers among the general population were unlikely to experience major undesirable health effects. Nevertheless, for consumers with brand loyalty to products with high aluminium contents, risk to health from aluminium would be increased.
