  • The US Food and Drug Administration has approved three new food dyes that come from natural sources.

The article from Yahoo News discusses the ongoing efforts to remove artificial food coloring from products, focusing on a recent petition submitted to the FDA by Consumer Reports and the Center for Science in the Public Interest. This petition specifically targets the removal of Red Dye No. 3, which has been linked to behavioral issues in children and cancer in animals. Despite being banned in cosmetics since 1990, Red Dye No. 3 is still used in food and drugs. The petition urges the FDA to revoke its approval of this dye, highlighting the potential health risks and the availability of safer alternatives. The article also notes that while the European Union has already banned certain artificial colors, the U.S. has been slower to act, prompting continued advocacy for stricter regulations on food additives.
