10 of the 13 popular brands of doctoral sausage are dangerous to health!
Many believe that “Doctoral” sausage is a suitable product for those who lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor their diet. And, indeed, "Doctor" was developed by the Research Institute of the Meat Industry in the 30s of the last century as a dietary product. According to the original recipe, it consisted only of beef, pork, eggs, milk, salt and spices.
The current GOST, which is guided by most manufacturers, is much more liberal. Now in the production of "Doctor" can be used and pruning spike, and beef fat, and pork skins, and a huge number of food additives - stabilizers, antioxidants and flavor enhancers. This fact makes such a sausage not a useful product. But unscrupulous manufacturers do not stop there and further “push” the limits of what is allowed.
Based on the inspections of "Doctor" experts concluded about the most common violations that are allowed in the manufacture of such sausage.
Results of testing Goods Valuation
"The Meat House of Borodin", "Doctor's" Complies with the mandatory safety and quality requirements. Experts lowered the product utility index due to the content of a color fixator - sodium nitrite and a moisture-retaining additive - food phosphates.
59.
"Mortadel," "Doctor's." This sausage has no preservatives, starch and soy. But found a small amount of meat substitute — collagen protein. The information on the label contains many abbreviations.
47.
"Velcom," "Doctor's." This sausage can boast of a rich chemical composition: stabilizer, antioxidant, color fixer, flavor enhancer. The amount of these food additives does not exceed the permissible standards, so the product is not included in our “black list”, but the indices of its usefulness and naturalness are minimal.

"TD Rublevsky", "Doctor's" The most expensive sample among the tested failed to cope with the tests - collagen animal protein was found in the composition. Not surprisingly, the actual mass fraction of the protein in the sample is lower than the label.
X
"Mikoyan," "Doctor's." In the composition of the sausage "Mikoyan" found collagen animal protein - a substitute for meat. It is not listed on the label, which qualifies as consumer deception.
X
"Russian Farmer", "Doctoral People's" The invented name is similar to the name established by GOST R 52196-2011 ("Doctor's" sausage). However, the composition has a protein stabilizer, soy protein, soy fiber, starch and other components that should not be in this "Doctor's" sausage.
X
"KampoMos", "Doctoral Classic" The invented name is similar to the name established by GOST R 52196-2011 ("Doctor's" sausage). However, there is animal protein in the composition, which is obtained from skins, cartilage and other waste from meat processing production, and which should not be in this “Doctoral”.
X
"Doctor Smoke" The invented name is similar to the name established by GOST R 52196-2011 ("Doctor's" sausage). However, there is less protein in this product, and more fat than should be in a real "Doctor's" sausage.
X
"Metatra", "Doctoral Original" The invented name is similar to the name established by GOST R 52196-2011 ("Doctor's" sausage). However, the composition has vegetable protein and starch, which should not be in this “Doctor’s” sausage.
X
"Egorievskaya," "Doctoral." The invented name is similar to the name established by GOST R 52196-2011 ("Doctor's" sausage). However, the composition has a protein stabilizer and soybeans, which should not be in this "Doctor's" sausage.
X
"Cherkizovsky MPZ", "Doctoral". In this product, sorbic acid is found - a preservative that is not allowed to be added to the "Doctor's" sausage, an excess of the mass fraction of phosphorus was also revealed. This is not in compliance with safety requirements.
X
"Ostankino", "Doctor's" sausage "Ostankino" does not meet safety requirements. During the examination, a preservative was found - benzoic acid, which is forbidden to add to the "Doctor's" sausage.
X
“Klinsk meat processing plant”, “Doctoral” sausage does not meet the mandatory safety requirements. In the composition of the product found not specified in the label preservative — benzoic acid. Complaints were also caused by a hard-to-read label, the composition of the product on which is indicated in a low-contrast font with a background.
X 5 main violations in the "Doctor's" sausage 1. High phosphate content. Phosphates are food additives E450, E451. Due to the excess of phosphates, calcium is excreted from the body. The systematic consumption of foods with phosphates contributes to the development of osteoporosis. In the manufacture of food additives manufacturers use to sell water at the price of meat, because phosphates have moisture retention properties. Norms for their content are strictly limited by the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (TR CU 029/2012), because these substances are not harmless.
2. The color fixer is sodium nitrite. This substance is added to any sausage to give it a pink color and protect the product from the toxin of botulism. Once in a person, sodium nitrite is converted into nitrosamine - a carcinogen, so in large quantities, sausage should not be eaten even by healthy people.
3. Collagen animal protein instead of meat. In GOST, the norm for the protein content in the "Doctor's" sausage is prescribed - at least 12%. To reach this standard, some manufacturers introduce collagen animal protein, aka “protein stabilizer”, aka “animal protein” (protein obtained during the processing of raw materials such as bones, cartilage, skins and other parts of the carcass consisting of connective tissue) into the sausage to reduce the cost of production.
Andrey Mosov, head of the expert department of Roscontrol, a doctor: The word “protein” should not mislead us. Collagen does not contain the most important amino acids for humans - methionine and tryptophan. It has virtually no glutamine. Moreover, only a few amino acids are present in significant quantities: glycine, proline, alanine, hydroxyproline. All this leads to the fact that the indicators of biological value in collagen are extremely low. In other words, it cannot provide us with all the “bricks” necessary to build the tissues of our body and synthesize the necessary enzymes. The systematic consumption of such sausages as the main source of animal protein is dangerous, as it poses a threat of serious food imbalance and protein starvation.”
4. Preservatives. During the examination, experts found benzoic and sorbic acid in some brands of sausages. According to the norms in the "Doctor's" sausage, their use is prohibited.
5. Inconsistency with the name in composition. If the manufacturer calls the sausage “Doctor’s”, the product must meet the requirements established in terms of composition, quality and nutritional value. In this "Doctor's" can not be soy protein and starch, it should be at least 12% protein and not more than 20% fat. But not everyone is ready to produce high-quality “Doctor’s” sausage. Some use similar names, misleading customers, and make sausages according to their own rules. published
P.S. And remember, just changing our consumption – together we change the world!
