Where is Aspergillus Niger found, and how can I avoid it?
Aspergillus Niger is a form of mildew present nearly everywhere that generally contaminates dry food, dried fruits, nuts, fermented teas and herbal teas, when they are exposed to humidity during storage. Also, Aspergillus Niger or its extracts may be used in the food industry as a non-declared additive. The principal products affected are: bread, beer, cheese, chocolate, fruit juices, and especially precooked meals. Avoid mass-produced foods. Opt for teas that you buy in a pharmacy. Limit your consumption of products at risk.
