Ep 12: The Color Code: What Your Food Isn’t Telling You

Beneath the bright colors on your plate lies a story you’re not being told. In this episode, we decode the spectrum of synthetic food dyes, from their coal tar origins to their petroleum-based present, revealing which colors are the most dangerous and why. You’ll learn how these chemicals end up in everything from candy to pickles, the health risks researchers are uncovering, and the surprising everyday foods wearing a chemical disguise. We’ll also look at how other countries are handling the problem, and how nature can give you all the color without the side effects.
