Should Food Dyes Be BANNED?: Dr. Marion Nestle on Artificial Colors and Obesity
Join Erin DeLullo on The Poisoning Podcast as she dives into the hot trend of banning artificial food dyes with nutrition expert Dr. Marion Nestle, a Professor, of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, Emerita, at New York University (NYU).
From West Virginia to California, states are cracking down on petroleum-based food colors linked to behavioral issues in kids and cancer risks in animal studies.
Dr. Nestle reveals why these dyes are unnecessary, how they fuel junk food sales, and why obesity remains a bigger threat than dyes.
Plus, explore the "Make America Healthy Again" movement, the role of food marketing, and practical steps to combat chronic diseases like diabetes.
Key topics:

-- Behavioral problems in kids and cancer risks from food dyes
-- Obesity crisis: 75% of American adults are overweight or obese
-- How food companies market junk food to kids
