Save the children: doctors called sweets that can cause cancer
Scientists from the United States told us that they discovered components of sweets that can cause the development of cancer in children. In particular, a food dye of red color came under suspicion. That he was the most dangerous for children's health.
In the global food industry, it is known as Red-40 or “charming red”. In the general classification of additives, the hazardous substance is known as E 129.
Studies have shown that 95% of children who often ate sweets with this dye developed allergic reactions. If such children were used by children under 5 years old, then 75% of them showed signs of decreased attention and hyperactivity. In 69% of adolescents, the dye caused neuroses of varying severity.
But the most dangerous property of the powerful carcinogen E 129 - provocation of cell proliferation, their transformation into malignant tumors. The relationship between pediatric oncology and eating sweets from E 129 was established on the basis of one of the children's hospices in the USA.
Parents of 89% of children in hospice admitted that it was these sweets that gave their children until a terrible diagnosis was made that changed everything.
Carcinogen E 129 is extracted from petroleum products. Previously, it was not considered dangerous, now the question is about depriving it of the definition of “food” and refusing to use it in the food industry.
What sweets contain the largest amount of Red-40:
- carbonated drink "Fanta";
- any ice cream with berry syrup red;
- fruit jelly beans and chewy candy red;
- marmalade bears and worms.
