Thank the FDA for Banning Red No. 3 to Protect Public Health

We applaud the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for taking decisive action to ban Red No. 3, a synthetic food dye linked to health concerns, from food and ingested drugs. This landmark decision prioritizes public health and safety, setting an important precedent for protecting consumers from potentially harmful additives.

Red No. 3, long prohibited in cosmetics due to its carcinogenic risks in lab studies, had continued to be used in thousands of food products. By amending regulations to phase out its use by 2027, the FDA has addressed decades of advocacy and research highlighting its risks, particularly for children.

This action aligns the U.S. with other nations that have already banned Red No. 3, reinforcing our commitment to health and safety standards. It also paves the way for manufacturers to adopt safer, more natural alternatives in their products.
