Preservatives are substances added to products to prevent spoilage and extend shelf life by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeasts. They can be natural or synthetic, and work by disrupting cellular processes or creating an unfavorable environment for microorganisms. However, preservatives can sometimes cause allergic reactions or have negative health effects if consumed in large quantities.
