Synthetic Food Colors and Neurobehavioral Hazards: The View from Environmental Health Research

.............."The FDA has had 35 years since the Feingold book (Feingold 1975) and 37 years since the GRAS report (Siu et al. 1977) to address the neurobehavioral toxicity of food colors. However, the British Food Standards Agency has advised parents to consider eliminating artificial food colors from the diet, and the European Union has called for eliminating six colors or listing on the label the warning that “[the color] may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children” (Food Standards Agency 2011)."
