But it wasn\u2019t until the late 1700s when Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele first isolated citric acid from lemon juice.<\/p>\n<p>Over the next century, citric acid became widely used in a variety of food, cleaning, and cosmetic products as a preservative, flavor-enhancer, and stabilizer.<\/p>\n<p>In the 1900s, American food chemist James Currie found that a common fungus that causes black mold on fruits and vegetables,\u00a0<em>Aspergillus niger<\/em>, produces large amounts of citric acid when fed a sugar solution.<\/p>\n<p>This synthetic means of deriving citric acid revolutionized the market and became the new standard for its industrial production.<\/p>\n<h2>Citric Acid Uses in Food<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/30143642\/citric-acid-600-candy.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-164653\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/30143642\/citric-acid-600-candy.jpeg\" alt=\"Isolated Variety of Gummy Candy\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s used in food and beverages to boost acidity, enhance flavor, and preserve ingredients,\u201d explains <a href=\"http:\/\/amygoodsonrd.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amy Goodson<\/a>, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, a board-certified specialist in sports dietetics. \u201cIt can also be <a href=\"https:\/\/nchfp.uga.edu\/how\/general\/ensuring_safe_canned_foods.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">added to canned fruits and vegetables<\/a>\u00a0to protect against botulism, a rare but serious illness caused by bacteria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Citric acid is one of the most common food additives in the world because of the variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5342991\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">uses<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebi.ac.uk\/chebi\/searchId.do?chebiId=CHEBI:30769\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">benefits<\/a> it offers, Goodson adds.<\/p>\n<p>Here are just a few citric acid\u2019s applications:<\/p>\n<h2>Citric Acid Benefits<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/30143647\/citric-acid-600-lemons.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-164654\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/30143647\/citric-acid-600-lemons.jpeg\" alt=\"Pile of Citric Acid in Front of Cut and Whole Lemon | Citric Acid\" width=\"513\" height=\"482\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>While citric acid offers a range of benefits for food and beverage manufacturers, Goodson explains that dietary citric acid can also provide a number of health benefits for consumers as well.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Antioxidant properties<\/h3>\n<p>Some research has shown that citric acid may benefit antioxidant activity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/antioxidants\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Antioxidants<\/a> are substances found in foods like fruits and vegetables that may prevent or delay certain types oxidative stress that can cause cell damage. Citric acid is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/B9780128190968000458\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">associated with antioxidant benefits<\/a> for helping to support the immune system as well as liver and brain function.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Mineral absorption<\/h3>\n<p>Citric acid can help your body retain some key minerals. \u201cCitric acid enhances the bioavailability of certain minerals, helping your body to better absorb them,\u201d explains Goodson.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have supported a link between citric acid and mineral absorption, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4469176\/?log$=activity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">calcium<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/9252973\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">phosphorus<\/a>, in particular.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Reduce physical fatigue<\/h3>\n<p>While more research is needed to understand its connection to physical fatigue, citric acid may also benefit energy levels.<\/p>\n<p>A small human\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2243251\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">study<\/a>\u00a0reported in the\u00a0<em>Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition<\/em>\u00a0found that oral consumption of citric acid helped reduce physiological stress and fatigue in the body after hard workouts.<\/p>\n<p>While the reasons for this phenomenon\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pdfs.semanticscholar.org\/ec31\/1a57cf2fcce586cd4fdf9d4f2afec6709374.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">aren\u2019t fully understood<\/a>, it\u2019s theorized that it may have something to do with the cycle of energy production in which citric acid is a primary player.<\/p>\n<h2>Is Citric Acid Bad for You?<\/h2>\n<p>Concerned that citric acid might be bad for you?<\/p>\n<p>While 99 percent of the world\u2019s production of citric acid is now manufactured instead of derived from lemons, there is little evidence that citric acid \u2014 even the synthetic stuff \u2014 has health risks for consumers, says Goodson.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cManufactured citric acid is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.accessdata.fda.gov\/scripts\/cdrh\/cfdocs\/cfcfr\/CFRSearch.cfm?fr=184.1033\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">generally recognized as safe<\/a> (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
