  • As part of the initiative, the FDA will set industry standards and timelines for transitioning to natural color alternatives.

The Trump administration has set a deadline of July 2020 for food manufacturers to eliminate eight synthetic food dyes from their products, following concerns over potential health risks associated with these additives. The dyes targeted for removal include Blue 1, Blue 2, Green 3, Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Citrus Red 2, and Orange B. This decision comes after years of debate and research suggesting links between these dyes and behavioral issues in children, as well as other health problems. The move is part of a broader effort by the administration to enhance food safety and public health, and it has been met with mixed reactions from the food industry and consumer advocacy groups.
