Synthetic colorants

Synthetic colorants are chemicals used to add color or beauty to many food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. However, they have been associated with some adverse effects, especially in children.

Hyperactivity and Attention Deficit: Some scientific studies have shown that synthetic colorants can cause behavioral problems such as hyperactivity and attention deficit disorder (ADHD), especially in children. These effects may occur, especially after consuming foods and beverages containing colorants.
Sensitivity: Some children may be more sensitive, especially to colorants. Certain dyes, such as tartrazine or azorubine, may cause allergic reactions in some children.
Link and Counterbalance: There is still a lot of debate about whether there is a link between the research and findings on this topic. However, in some countries, the use of such colorants is restricted or completely banned in some products.

Therefore, it is important for parents and consumers to be cautious about the use of synthetic colorants in products intended for children. Evaluating the potential risks of these substances and choosing alternative natural coloring methods may be a safer option for children's health.
