As chemical preservatives, sodium benzoate is frequently used in processed foods to prevent the growth of bacteria, yeast, or other unwanted microorganisms that could spoil your food. When sodium benzoate is combined with water, benzoic acid is produced. Benzoic acid is the active form of the preservative—the form that protects foods.
