Here's my presentation, I'm in high school right now in the highest level
Japanese class they have, but I want to know if my grammar is wrong or if I
can improve some things in it, as well as slowly stray away from the sentence
frames my teacher gives us like "最小に、〜です。” and overusing "今から〜の説明します。” as an
introduction and "ここから以上です。” as a conclusion. I'm supposed to record this
tonight but I would still like some feedback and help regardless because I
feel like it will be useful in the future.

"今からの発表に食品添加物の説明します。食品添加物はいい点と悪い点があります。
最小に、食品添加物が食べものに使用されたらもっと美味しくなります。例えば、ぶどう味グミに甘味料と香料を両方使って、そのお菓子の味と匂いがもっと美味しくなります。でも、この添加物が体に悪くて、色々な危険な影響があります。甘味料にいろんな種類があるけど、アスパルテームに集中します。アスパルテームは危険な甘味料です。発がん性だから、食べさせ過ぎたら体に危険になりそうです。
なぜ食品添加物があまりいい点がないんですか？ 食品添加物が味とどれぐらいまで食べる以外にいい点があまりありません。
お菓子の会社に私のアドバイスは、無添加お菓子を作ったら、お菓子が食べる人にいいです。ここから以上です。”

I just want feedback in general as well, anything helps. I feel like I overuse
"ます” and "です” as well, and I feel like posting this on here is better than
learning off of Google Translate since I know that GT isn't the most reliable
tool.

Other questions I have if you want to help: How can I make my presentation
more interesting? (I tried using a question in my presentation to try to
change the format and make it more interesting.) In this sentence, I said
"食品添加物が味とどれぐらいまで食べる以外にいい点があまりありません。" I was trying to say "Other than taste and
how long until you can't eat it, there aren't a lot of good things about food
additives." I don't know if I worded it right.

That's all. Thank you if you can help!

question
word-choice word-usage
Please give feedback on my Japanese class presentation on food additives
Asking general feedback is off-topic on this site, but the last paragraph
contains a question that can have a clear answer.

> "Other than taste and how long until you can't eat it, there aren't a lot of
> good things about food additives."

The part "there aren't ... additives" is the main clause of the sentence, so
you must say this part in one piece in Japanese too.

> 食品添加物にはいいことがあまりありません

X （に）はいいことがある has a meaning "X does something good", so that fits more nicely
here.

Then for the first part, we have a convenient word
[日持ち](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/word/%E3%81%B2%E3%82%82%E3%81%A1/) for "how
long a (perishable) thing lasts" that you can use. (Your attempt どれぐらいまで食べる
unfortunately makes no sense in this context.)

> 味と日持ちすること以外

putting together,

> 味と日持ちすること以外に、食品添加物にはいいことがあまりありません。
