    Taste plays a significant role in the life of every person. Our taste buds are responsible for recognizing flavors, determining the suitability of foods, protecting against harmful substances, and regulating food intake. A person always gets pleasure from tasty food, and sweet dishes cause positive emotions. Unfortunately, we consume food that contains many food additives and preservatives daily, although we know that it can be harmful. Tasty but not healthy food has become extremely common and available, and it is difficult for us to resist the temptation to eat it. Many nutritional supplements have been created to meet the needs of the food industry, as mass production of products is different from home cooking. These additives are necessary to preserve the product's appearance but should not harm buyers' health or mislead them. Today, there are many food additives that consumers are unaware of but which can affect human organs, particularly the adrenal glands. Some of the most common food additives we study include monosodium glutamate (E621), sodium nitrite (E250) and Ponceau 4R (E124). Consuming large amounts of dietary supplements can have the following effects: chest and abdominal pain, migraines, nausea, rapid heart rate (tachycardia), obesity, weakness, and allergic reactions. Particular attention should be paid to the effect of these supplements on the adrenal glands, as they can disrupt the function of these organs and contribute to the development of oncological diseases. Research on the morphology of the adrenal glands has been ongoing for many years. In recent decades, there has been an increase in the pathology of the adrenal glands as the negative influence of external and internal factors increases, which leads to disturbances in the structure and functioning of the glands. Adrenal glands play an essential role not only in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal system but also in the endocrine system. Interest in changes in the structure of the adrenal glands does not fade among experimental medicine and scientists. Thanks to the improvement of computer diagnostic methods, the detection of both hormonally active and inactive, benign and malignant neoplasms of the adrenal glands is increasing. The most common endocrine disorders are hyperaldosteronism, adrenergic and estrogenic balance disorders. Computed tomography significantly improves the detection of tumors of various origins in the adrenal glands. Diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the adrenal glands is an urgent medical and social problem.
