Without the red, whatever color we want in a food is not going to happen that way. Imagine the wine will become blue, chocolate pudding turns green. Everything feels strange and unusual. Therefore, the role of the red color here as the main colors to bring a number of complementary colors is very important. , We perform large-scale production to bring this red color. Initially the red color comes from a type of insect as I described in my previous post. Then scientists discovered a new innovation on artificial dyes which must facilitate users in food coloring. We all know that all things are not acquired naturally have more adverse effects, both for the health, environment and our universe. Here is described a bit about the health impacts of red color in foods:

** a. Allergic Reaction ** Some people have some sort of incompatibility of a substance of colors, including red. We know that the red color obtained from the extraction of the cochineal insect kind, which also cause allergies in humans. Red dye used not only in food but are used also in other products such as in pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Therefore, in some countries to label products that contain natural or artificial dyes to inform you that this product may cause allergies if consumed by certain people who have a high level of sensitivity of dye

** b. Cancer ** Red Dye Number 2 is an additive Used for decades to liven the color of hot dogs, pet food, ice cream, gravy, makeup and a Myriadof red pills. This is a tar-based product known to cause constriction of the bronchial tubes, angioedema (swelling) and hives known as Urticaria. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has Officially rescinded the provisional approval of Red Dye Number 2 after tests showed a significant increase is in Cancer Among female aged Rats. The FDA claims there is' no evidence-That this dye is a public health hazard. The amount of dye consumption required to meet the standards of this test in Humans is considerable and unlikely. other dye, preservative potassium nitrite can cause cancer. Potassium nitrite is harmful for our body. When amines that exist in our food rects with potassium nitrite it will produce carsinogenic substances. This reaction below give you more information ** R 2NH (amines) + KNO 2 (Potassium nitrite) → R 2N-N=O (nitrosamine) ** and in the presence of acid in our stomach, the nitrosoamnies will convert into diazonium ions :

** R 2N-N=O (nitrosamine) + (acid or heat) → R-N +-N=O (diazonium ion) ** and finally diazonium ions such as N-nitrosodimethylamine and N-nitrosopyrolidine form carbocations that react with biological nucleophiles such as DNA or an enzyme in the cell.

** R-N +-N=O (diazonium ion) → R + (carbocation) + N 2 (leaving group) + :Nu (biological nucleophiles) → R-Nu ** If this nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs at a crucial site in a biomolecule, it can disrupt normal cell functioning leading to cancer or cell death. so, now is still willing to excessive consumption of corned beef and sausage? i don't think so

Several other countries besides the United States prohibits the use of dyes such as red allura for consumption by children. But the FDA allows its use in cosmetics, medicines and foods. This substance is itself actually harmless, but it will become ﻿ dangerous when combined with other ingredients that can increase the risk of hiperactivity in children aged between 8-9 years. ** d. Autism **  Allura red in foods (cured meat), although considered safe for consumption, but still only have the effect of synthetic food coloring bad for the human body is consumed in both the short and long term. The effect of consuming red allura in the long term often arise in children. Children who consume red allura since childhood (age 1 year) will show symptoms of hyperactivity even autistic in his third year or the eighth. How allura red work? Very simple, allura red that enters the body will interfere with the brain works. Allura red will do the segments on chromosome deletion or duplication of the adjacent segments. So generally, allura red will do stage deletions or duplications and inversions. In children who have autism, chromosomal abnormalities strange happens, there is a segment on chromosome doubling and then inverted in other forms. However, so far allura red fatherly consumed within safe limits is not until the cause of autism media type="custom" key="7701657"
