BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) is a type of antioxidant. It is a waxy substance with the E number E320 that is used as a food additive. BHA is mostly used in food as an antioxidant and preservative. BHA is also found in cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), accutane, lovastatin, and simvastatin, among other drugs. BHA is an antioxidant that has been added to edible fats and fat-containing foods to prevent rancidification, which causes unpleasant aromas. 4 The conjugated aromatic ring of BHA, like that of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), is capable of stabilising and sequestering free radicals. Further free radical reactions are inhibited by functioning as free radical scavengers.
