E472c - Citric and fatty acid esters of glycerol: Emulsifiers and Stabilizers - salts or Esters of Fatty Acids If the fat source is from soy fat then it is Halal. If it is from pork fat then it is Haram. If it is from non zabiha beef then it is not Halal. If a claim appeared on food package "Suitable for Vegetarian" containing E-Number 472 then it means the E Number 472 is from soy fat. The food product is Halal if all other ingredients are Halal
E472c - Citric and fatty acid esters of glycerol: Emulsifier, stabiliser, coating agent, texture modifier, solvent and lubricant. No known adverse effects, but less frequently it may cause diarrhoea, theist, dizziness and mental confusion.
E472c - Citric and fatty acid esters of glycerol: The basic material for mono and diglycerides comes mainly from soya beans. Soya beans: internationally traded primary product soya stems in general completely or in part from genetically modified plants. GM soya beans are grown on a large scale in Argentina and the USA. The EU imports a large part of the soya primary products from these countries. Some food companies process exclusively conventional soya raw material. However, it is not technically possible to keep a strict separation of conventional and GM soya beans through all the processing steps. Therefore, even raw materials that are declared as "free of gene technology" contain a small amount of genetically modified material.
E472c - Citric and fatty acid esters of glycerol: Possibly animal derived. Substances used in food, clothing, cosmetics and other products which are or can be taken from animals.
