Citric acid is a weak organic acid. It is a natural preservative/conservative and is also used to add an acidic, or sour, taste to foods, soft drinks and cakes. It can also be used as an environmentally benign cleaning agent.

Citric acid is a natural preservative found in citrus fruits. It dissolves easily into liquids, making it a useful acid and a flavouring for cordials. It can help the body to more easily digest chelated minerals. For example, some calcium supplements can come in the form of calcium citrate, and are better absorbed by the body. The ability of citric acid to bond with other minerals can make it helpful in softening water, so for example soaps and laundry detergents can be more effective when they contain citric acid.
