8 common food additives linked to high blood pressure in new study,

Written by Tim Newman on May 28, 2026 — Fact checked by Jill Seladi-Schulman, Ph.D.

A new study involving more than 100,000 participants concludes that certain food preservatives could harm cardiovascular health.

The researchers identify eight preservatives that are linked to hypertension (high blood pressure).

They also concluded that one additive was specifically associated with cardiovascular disease.
