General Description

Calcium 5' inosinate, also known as calcium inosinate or E633, is a flavor enhancer commonly used in processed foods to add a savory taste. It is a calcium salt of inosinic acid, a natural acid that is found in a variety of meat and fish products. As a food additive, calcium 5' inosinate is often found in combination with monosodium glutamate (MSG) to enhance the umami flavor in foods. It is generally considered safe for consumption by regulatory authorities, but some individuals may be sensitive to its effects, particularly those with gout or asthma.
