The list of harmful effects of food colorings and additives is increasing, especially with a new French study confirming the danger of these food additives and emulsifiers to human health and the immune system.
Eight months following presenting the preliminary results of a French research that began 7 years ago and was published by the scientific journal PLOS ONE, scientists confirmed that foods containing artificial colorings and food additives cause cancer.
The study, which spanned several years and included more than 90,000 French participants, showed that ultra-processed foods, known as UPF, lead to cancer.
In detail, foods containing the food code “E471” were associated with an increased risk of cancer in general by regarding 15 percent, and increased the risk of breast cancer for women by regarding 24 percent, and prostate cancer for men by more than 65 percent.
Researchers believe that these food additives disrupt the microorganisms in the intestine, which facilitates the access of disease-causing bacteria to the intestinal barrier, which enhances the appearance of cancer.
A previous study by the British University of Bristol and the International Agency for Research on Cancer found that eating a lot of ice cream, potato chips, soft drinks, and fruit-flavored yogurt, all foods that attract customers with their beautiful, bright colors, may increase the risk of cancer of the digestive system, head, and neck as well.
