Did you hear that Hollywood actress, Eva Mendes is calling for the removal of artificial dyes from Kellogg's cereals, citing health concerns. She argues that many of the ingredients used in Kellogg's products are harmful for children and banned in other countries. Mendez has encouraged her followers to join a peaceful march to Kellogg's headquarters to demand change.
Kellogg has responded by stating that their products comply with all applicable laws and regulations and that they remain committed to transparent labeling. However, some states are now starting to outlaw these same dyes, raising questions about the company's claims.
In this episode, I discuss the potential health risks associated with artificial dyes, including links to hyperactivity, ADHD, and other behavioral problems. I also discuss why I find it odd that Kellogg's uses natural food colorings in their products in Canada but not in the United States.
I believe there should be greater awareness and action regarding the ingredients in our food and I emphasize the importance of choosing real, healthy foods and demanding better quality products from companies like Kellogg's. Our health is at stake.
