adulterating
Adulterating refers to the act of making something impure, inferior, or of lesser quality by adding foreign or inferior substances or elements. This is often done intentionally for economic gains, especially in the context of food, drink, or substances where purity is crucial. Adulteration can significantly reduce the quality and safety of a product.
