Abstract
Sulfites are used as food additives in food technology. However conducted studies revealed that in some individuals sulfites cause many life-threatening reactions associated with consumption of sulfide-containing foods and beverages or sulfide-containing drugs and also inhalation of sulfur dioxide. Therefore regulations should be arranged in order to protect individuals with hypersensitivity to sulfite.
