ℹ️ What is ADI?

Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) is the amount of a food additive that can be consumed daily over a lifetime without appreciable health risk. It is expressed in milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day (mg/kg bw/day). ADI values are established by regulatory bodies like EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) and JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) based on extensive toxicological studies.
