The experts of Physiology and Food biochemistry position encourage the food industry to review the requirements to the newly created Food and methods for their preparation. In this regard, the food industry developments at the present stage should focus primarily on maximum customer satisfaction, the creation of high quality, environmentally friendly, medically and biologically safe products.
One of the new food production priorities is unavoidable use of wide food additives range, which are represented in the world market in different price categories. According to the current Ukraine legislation, the definitions of "food additives" are different. Also existing Ukrainian rules and regulations for food additives differ from international acts such as Codex standards Alamentarius (Codex Alimentarius) and numerous EU Directives. The legislation lies very profitable for manufacturers: a closer look reveals that in Ukraine there is no concept of "prohibited additive" and these is no responsibility for its use, and therefore, these types of additives are used everywhere. List of additives which are permitted in the food industry changes from year to year. Some additives are deemed hazardous to human health, and their application is prohibited. Therefore, in accordance with the today’s EU requirements it is necessary to make urgent harmonization of Ukrainian sanitary norms and rules with the recommendations of the Codex Alimentarius Committee on Food Additives in the food industry. If the country has more stringent requirements compared with the Codex Alimentarius standards it can only be applied to domestic products
