Radiation can be used to sterilize food by destroying microorganisms and pests. Techniques like gamma radiation can penetrate food packaging to effectively kill bacteria, parasites, and insects without significantly affecting the nutritional content or taste of the food. This method is approved by health authorities for certain foods and helps extend shelf life by preventing spoilage.
