Alarm over carcinogenic compound, US bans synthetic dye 'Red No3'

The US has banned the use of the synthetic dye "Red No 3" in foods and medicines after links were discovered to cancer in laboratory mice.

The color is mainly used in candy, cakes, cookies, frozen desserts, and beverage fillings, as well as in some medicines.

The ban is the result of a petition made in 2022 by several groups, including the Center for Science in the Public Interest, who argued that the dye should be banned due to its links to cancer and widespread use by consumers in the US, especially children.

Red No 3 was banned in cosmetics 35 years ago by the FDA. California also banned the addition of this additive to food products in October 2023.

The color is also restricted in other countries outside the US, such as Australia, New Zealand, and the European Union.

Food manufacturers using Red No 3 will have until January 2027 to reformulate their products, while drug manufacturers will have an additional year until January 2028 to make adjustments.
