I am so happy that there has been a new awareness. We are paying closer attention to what we are eating and products we are using. For so long we went along without regard to what we were putting in our bodies and the bodies of our children.

The FDA has estimated that between 47,000 and 94,000 Americans are sensitive to food dye Yellow No. 5, one of the most commonly used dyes for one. It can cause asthma, hives, headache, and is linked to behavioral changes. In a double-blind study reported in the Journal of Pediatrics, the study clearly demonstrated a relation between ingestion of Yellow No. 5 and behavioral changes in children who are allergic to it.
Recent studies have linked artificial food colorings to cancer and brain tumors as well as links to hyperactivity ADD, ADHD, and other disruptive behaviors in children. Artificial colors are made up of tar derivatives, long chain hydrocarbons, and other petrochemicals and are of no use to your body.
In effort to safeguard our children the FDA is now requiring a warning label on foods with artificial dyes or colors and is considering, under the advisory of advocacy groups, banning the sale of the following commonly used colors: Yellow #5 and #6, Red #40 and #3, Blue #1 and #2, and Green #3, and Orange B

What Are They Made Of?
All natural food colorings are made from natural products that are safe to ingest. In the past, this was done by adding herbs, vegetables, and fruit to foods to change their color. For example, grated carrot was added to cream when it was being churned to give the butter a golden flavor. Making your own dyes can be a hit or miss operation. It is hard to know when you have an intense enough dye to give good color.
Commercial, natural dyes are not always organic. If you want the food coloring to be all natural as well as organic, be sure that both of these things are stated on the label or box. Read the ingredient list carefully, especially if someone in your family has allergies. Chamomile can set off an allergic reaction in people that have pollen allergies or are allergic to grass. If you are unsure call or email the company to get the answers you need.
Some of the colors available and what they are made from are:
Blue – often made from blueberry skins or red cabbage
Green - usually made from vegetable extracts, like spinach
Orange - made from a pulp which surrounds the annatto seed
Purple - made from a purple colored carrot
Brown - made from caramelized or burnt sugar, but may add flavor to some products
Red - often made of hibiscus
Yellow – made form turmeric
Blue – sometimes made from red cabbage
Pink – often made from beet
