Food colours/additive hyperactive worry
At least 60 food additives used in our foods which are questionable in terms of safety, or at worse, known to be harmful.
This has been highlighted by this campaign: http://www.additivealert.com.au/
Food additive colours on to-be-banned list are:
102, 104, 110, 122, 124, 129
Five years ago, studies from the University of Southampton UK (2007) confirmed that these 6 colours could cause hyperactivity in children. http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140673607613063/abstract
As a result of this research, these 6 colours are being removed from ALL foods in the UK. But they a still in many of the coloured food in New Zealand.
For your children’s sake, please keep these harmful food additives out of their diet.
