The science behind the FDA ban on food dye Red No. 3 : Short Wave

  • The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has banned the additive Red Dye No. 3 from all food products due to a study linking it to cancer in lab rats.
  • The ban comes nearly 35 years after Red Dye No. 3 was prohibited in cosmetics because of potential cancer risks.
  • The FDA's decision was influenced by a petition from food safety advocates and is based on the Delaney Clause, which mandates bans on cancer-causing additives.
  • Some food manufacturers have already reformulated their products to exclude Red Dye No. 3.
