Image via WikipediaSome artificial food colors and additives can make children hyperactive and distracted,according to recent studies. Now the Food Standards Agency (FSA) wants six food coloring to be voluntarily withdrawn by food manufacturers in the UK by next yea,rather than wait for an EU ruling,which the FSA says could take years.
The six yellow,orange and red colorings are : Sunset Yellow (E110),Carmoisine (E122), Tartrazine (E102), Ponceau 4R (E124), Quinoline yellow (E104).They are found in a wide variety of soft drinks,sweets,lollies,cakes (including birthday cake icing), biscuits,milk-shakes and even savoury products,such as mint chutney and mushy peas.
