However, our Citric Acid is generated from maize and sugar beets by natural fermentation and is GMO-free. An excellent antioxidant and exfoliator, it may also be used as a preservation system by adjusting the pH levels. Citric acid is also the most commonly used organic acidulate, most likely due to its weak acid classification.
