Some alternative food-grade emulsifiers to replace polysorbate 80 are lecithin, mono- and diglycerides, and sorbitan monostearate. These emulsifiers can help improve stability and texture in various food products without the need for polysorbate 80.
Emulsifiers are commonly found in lotions and foods, however, some are very dangerous. Their function is to interact with fatty acids, protein and water to make oil water mixtures stable. In my mind, I don't want any emulsifiers messing with my body over the long term. I avoid them in food and cosmetics. The only company making emulsifier free lotion is Ceela naturals.
Emulsifiers are commonly used in food products to stabilize and improve texture. When consumed in moderate amounts, they are generally considered safe for humans. However, excessive consumption of emulsifiers may disrupt the gut microbiome and potentially contribute to inflammation and related health issues.
Emulsifiers are added to food to improve stability and texture by preventing ingredients from separating or clumping together. They help create a smoother and more consistent texture in products like salad dressings, mayonnaise, and ice cream. Additionally, emulsifiers can extend shelf life and improve overall food quality.

Natural emulsifiers like soy, milk, and eggs can be dangerous to those allergic to them by triggering a potentially deadly allergic reaction called anaphylaxis. Mono-diglycerides (hydrogenated oils) are a synthetic emulsifier also used in food. They contain trans fats which increase cholesterol levels and the risk of stroke and heart attack, and clog arteries.
Emulsifiers may be mixtures but also simple compounds.
