Food health

Nutrition profile and additives of concern

⚠Contains additive of concern
  • TartrazineSouthampton study link to hyperactivity/attention effects in children; can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals.
  • Sunset yellow FCFSouthampton Six colour; hyperactivity/attention concern in children.
  • Allura red ACSouthampton Six colour; hyperactivity/attention concern in children.
  • Titanium dioxidePossible genotoxicity (DNA/chromosomal damage) could not be ruled out; no longer considered safe as a food additive.
  • ErythrosineIodine-based red dye; thyroid effects in animal studies; restricted uses.
  • Brilliant blue FCFSynthetic dye; allergic-type reactions reported in sensitive individuals.
  • Ammonia caramelCaramel colour class III; may contain 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), an animal carcinogen.
  • Sodium benzoatePreservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.
  • CarrageenanDegraded carrageenan, and in some animal/in-vitro studies food-grade carrageenan, are linked to intestinal inflammation; human evidence is limited and contested.
  • Polysorbate 80Synthetic emulsifier linked in animal and in-vitro studies to gut-microbiome disruption and intestinal inflammation; human evidence is emerging.
  • DiphosphatesInorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
  • Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)Synthetic emulsifier linked in animal and in-vitro studies to gut-microbiome disruption and intestinal inflammation; human evidence is emerging.
