  • Summary

  • It can be found in some of your favourite candies, baked goods and beverages: red dye no. 3.

    The FDA has recently banned the synthetic dye from food (by 2027) and oral medication (by 2028) in the United States, but Health Canada says they won’t be following suit. So what’s the real danger behind this colour additive compared to others we ingest?

    Host Melanie Ng takes a deep dive into the research with Dr. Emma Allen-Vercoe, Professor and Canada Research Chair with the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Guelph.
