Dr. Ana-Maria Temple warns that Red 40, a synthetic dye in many kids' foods, triggers systemic inflammation and can impair memory, attention, and focus. She says the food industry downplays the risks to children's skin, lungs, and brain.
Our children are eating this poison and nobody's talking about it. Is the criticism towards Red 40 fair? It is more than fair. It is a toxin in our children's food that is downplayed as no big deal because it's fun, and it leads to inflammation not just for skin but for lungs, for the brain, and it causes children to have issues with memory, attention, and focus in addition to inflammatory skin.
