Petition: Ban the use of Erythrosine (E127) in all food products and ingested medicines.

I want the UK Government to remove the exemptions that allow the synthetic dye Erythrosine (E127) to be used in tinned fruits and pharmaceutical coatings. We urge a total ban on this organoiodine compound in any product intended for human ingestion.

Ban Erythrosine (E127) in all food products and ingested medicines.

Action:Remove the exemptions allowing the synthetic dye Erythrosine (E127) in tinned fruits and pharmaceuticals. We urge a total ban on this organoiodine compound in all products intended for human ingestion.

Details:E127 is restricted in most UK foods but remains legal in tinned fruits and medical tablets/capsules. E127 is 58% iodine and can cause thyroid disruption; it has been linked to thyroid tumors in animal studies. It is illogical that a dye deemed too high-risk for a sausage is considered safe for vulnerable populations taking daily medication. Using dyes to mask the natural color degradation of processed food is a visual "scam" that serves no health purpose.

Aren’t these things really just to comply with something and don’t ever change anything? Most I’ve seen is they agree to discuss it, and the discussion usually goes “cool we’re not doing that”
 
Iodine is an essential trace element necessary for producing thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) that regulate metabolism, protein synthesis, and fetal brain development. Found in seaweed, dairy, and iodized salt, it is crucial for preventing goiter and cognitive impairment. The recommended daily intake for adults is 150 micrograms, with higher needs during pregnancy.

JUST RESTRICT YOUR DAILY INTAKE
 
Why? Usually if you want people to do something for you, you'd put in at least a token effort to make a well thought out and reasoned argument

All you've done is copy and pasted someone else's information in a zero effort post and run.

For that reason, I'm out.
