Introduction:-
Food Chemistry is the branch of food science that deals with study of chemical changes that undergoes during the processing, handling, storage of food. Food chemistry is closely related with the biochemistry, Microbiology, Molecular biology etc. The major aim of food chemistry is to understand and prevent the undesirable changes of food when it exposed to the severe environmental conditions and to improve the nutrients and quality of food. Food Chemistry is an overview of chemistry related to food sciences, such as food analysis, microbiology, nutrition, and food engineering etc. The study of chemistry probably dates from the first millennium AD and the route to modern food chemistry can be traced through the alchemist philosophies of medieval China, India and Europe, although it took about a thousand years for chemistry to grow into a coherent and inclusive decipline.

According to market research report, “Global Organic Food Market By Product Type, By Region, Competition Forecast and Opportunities, 2011 – 2021”, global organic food market is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 14%, during 2016-2021, on account of rising disposable income coupled with growing awareness among consumers about health benefits of consuming organically produced food. Additionally, rising internet penetration, aggressive marketing strategies by major companies and easy availability of these food products on the back of robust distribution network are projected to boost sales of organic food across the globe. In 2016, about 43.7 million hectares of agricultural land was under organic cultivation, which was managed by over 2.3 million producers across the globe. Moreover, leading players operating in global organic food market are offering these products in environment friendly packaging to lure consumers.

Scope and Importance:
Food chemistry deals with nature of chemical substance and transformation that takes place during the severe environmental conditions, processing, utilization etc. These transformation leads to the energetic changes in the body. Any imbalance and abnormality in the Chemical constituents like Carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, water etc leads to the diseased rate in the body. So, the knowledge of Biochemistry applied in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of these diseases. Food Chemistry directing the food material to chemical observations. Food chemistry utilize many procedures and Analytical tools so that they change the food with healthy, nutritious, safe food materials with high commercial value. An understanding the chemical transformation and processes has made food substances available on a global scale. The basic principle under food chemistry is to create the methods that makes it possible to harvest, preserve, process and prepare the food with high nutritional value for human  consumption  and increase the shelf life of food products without causing any diseases to the human.

Increasing   average household annual spending on food, rising awareness about health benefits associated with organic foods, greater accessibility of these products through small to medium scale retailers, continuous development in supply chain network and implementation of initiatives to encourage farmers to switch to organic farming are projected to fuel organic food sales across the globe. 

Food Additives:
