If you live in the USA the FDA does not care about what food dyes are doing to our children. Send a message to these jokers and stop buying the products with food dyes in them. The only way to make them change is to effect their profits. This how to stop them from feeding us chemicals. We should all be concerned about having healthy children in our country. These children are going crazy and shooting up the schools. Then I have to listen about how they can't understand this. You do not have to be that smart to figure out what is going on. They are poisoning the children with their chemicals. They put their poison in the water, in the food and in the air. That is not enough so they have to inject the poison right into the blood stream. If you want healthy children you should understand what they are doing and avoid it.

Re: Food Dyes
With all that poison out there, it's no wonder we aren't all dead by now!
Re: Food Dyes
Most foods are available without additives, you just have to look for them. And you may have to look outside the large/convenient supermarket!
Re: Food Dyes
The article cited is typical Mercola - half truths, innuendo, scaremongering, and a big touch of inaccuracy.
The way it is written (for the gullible), Europe is way ahead of the US in dealing with artificial food colorants.
The truth is the other way round.
The FDA permits exactly seven (7) artificial colorants in foodstuffs.
In the EU, only six of those seven even have to carry a warning.
Just read the disclaimer at the bottom of the article:
*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition, consult your physician before using this product.
Read it carefully, and conclude that you cannot rely on anything in the article - because it is the only product on that page.
The same disclaimer is on every page of the Mercola website - so by extension you cannot rely on anything on any page.

Re: Food Dyes
About the only source that particular poster quotes is Dr. Mercola. He has taken what Mercola says hook, line and sinker and anyone else who states otherwise is labeled a liar or criminal!! Mercola preys on people like that and it makes him a lot of money. Thanks DrGeoff for pointing out Mercola's methods.DrGeoff wrote:The article cited is typical Mercola - half truths, innuendo, scaremongering, and a big touch of inaccuracy.
