Gold-silver foil powder is not a food additive, not a food raw material, and cannot be used in food production and management.

Gold-silver foil powder is usually made of pure gold and silver by extension and moderate crushing. Its appearance is bright, its texture is soft, its chemical properties are stable, and it is not easy to lose its luster by oxidation. According to China's food safety laws and regulations and related food safety standards, gold and silver foil powder is not a food additive, nor is it allowed to be used as a food raw material.

In October, 2122, the General Administration of Market Supervision, the National Health and Wellness Commission and the General Administration of Customs issued the Notice on Investigating and Handling Illegal Acts of Producing and Operating Food Containing Gold and Silver Foil Powder according to Law, which clearly stated that food producers should not purchase and use gold and silver foil powder to produce processed food.

food sellers are not allowed to purchase and sell food containing gold and silver foil powder; Catering service providers shall not make and sell meals containing gold and silver foil powder; Food importers are not allowed to import food containing gold and silver foil powder.

The hidden trouble of "gold-silver foil powder"

Gold is malleable and easy to be made into thin slices, commonly known as "gold foil", or made into powder, commonly known as "gold powder". Some ultrafine powders can reach nanometer size, and the surface area of several grams of nanometer "gold powder" even exceeds the size of a football field.

Therefore, some unscrupulous traders use gold and silver foil powder as food additives. Although the consumption is not large and the cost is not high, the price has soared exponentially, which can be described as "one book is profitable", which not only encourages the extravagant wind, but also stimulates the unhealthy trend of profit-seeking enterprises that are ostentatious and mercenary. In fact, it is unnecessary to add gold and silver foil powder to food or edible agricultural products, and there are also many hidden dangers.

The so-called medical efficacy of gold in some ancient medical books mentioned on the Internet is also controversial, and most of them are used as gimmicks for advertising. A small amount of gold and silver foil powder will neither improve the taste and fragrance of agricultural products, nor have any nutritional value, nor can it be "antibacterial" or prolong the storage period of agricultural products.
