    No matter what food we buy now, after looking at its ingredient list, there will be a lot of food additives.


    Pigment makes food more attractive.


    Adding pigments to food is not a patent of modern people.


    Nowadays commonly used food colorings include two types: natural colorings and synthetic colorings.


    At the same time, a large number of research reports point out that almost all synthetic pigments cannot provide nutrients to the human body, and some synthetic pigments can even endanger human health.


    Researchers in the United States, Britain and other countries have also found that not only amaranth, but many other synthetic pigments are also harmful to the human body, which may lead to decreased fertility, teratogenesis, etc.


    Through the above description, everyone can know that pigments can have an adverse effect on the human body under certain circumstances, and this adverse effect can sometimes be particularly serious.
