I quit Red 40 about 10 yrs ago.
I was sick all the time.
Throwing up and and headaches were normal for me.
I had diarrhea most of the time. ( hard to stay hydrated when your pooping water ).
Then there was the joint pains to the point I dropped things a lot and couldn't keep a job.
A friend suggested that I cut one thing out at a time.
I said what should I start with. She then suggested red 40.
That did the trick!
All my symptoms subsided to a point that they hardly bother me anymore.
I got into some red 40 about a year ago it put me down for 3 days although interesting to observe, now I know what to look for, still painful.
I don't think I am allergic because I have no hisame reactions no hives or itching but, I'm hypersensitive to it fer shure.

relieved that looking at some red liquorice in australia, it uses anthocyanins / E163 which is natural food colouring which is even probably very healthy for you

Love me some red#40. Like most people. We just don’t really live long enough lives to be affected by things like this. Same with the microplastics and what now. I enjoy it all

I’m a simple man. I see an AI narrated video, I give it a dislike and look for a better video narrated by actual people.
