A frequently asked question –  Is Magnesol safe to use?  The simple answer: Yes. Customers can purchase Magnesol for use as a frying oil filter media with utmost confidence in its safety, purity and performance. Below we outline what Magnesol is, what food safety certifications it holds and its impact on environmental sustainability.
Magnesol, a registered trademark of The Dallas Group of America, Inc., is a food grade pure white, odourless, tasteless powder. In technical terms, it is a synthetic, amorphous, hydrous form of magnesium silicate. This safe compound is used as an adsorbent to remove insoluble and soluble impurities from used fry oil through a process of filtration.
The purpose of filtration with Magnesol is to extend oil life up to 50% by keeping it clean and clear. This allows for the cooking of consistently superior, crisp and tasty fried foods. It is the world’s best fry oil filtration medium used by restaurants, fast food chains, food trucks etc.
Compared with unfiltered used oil and oil that has been filtered through conventional DE filter aids (diatomaceous earth), studies have shown that filtering cooking oil with Magnesol actually improves its nutritional value. [1]
