Food colours and hyperactivity

We funded research into possible links between food colours and hyperactivity in children. It found that consuming certain artificial food colours could cause increased hyperactivity in some children.

These artificial colours are:

  • sunset yellow FCF (E110)
  • quinoline yellow (E104)
  • carmoisine (E122)
  • allura red (E129)
  • tartrazine (E102)
  • ponceau 4R (E124)

Food and drink containing any of these six colours must carry a warning on the packaging. This will say ‘May have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children’.

We encourage manufacturers to work towards finding alternatives to these colours. Some manufacturers and retailers have already taken action to remove them.

It’s important to remember that hyperactivity can also be caused by other things. So being careful about what a child eats may help manage hyperactive behaviour but it may not stop it.

'Dangerous dye levels' found in tikka


Food colourings linked to hyperactivity, asthma, and even cancer, have been detected in chicken tikka masala, which has arguably become the UK's national dish, consumer chiefs warned today.

Random tests ordered by Trading Standards officers in Surrey suggest 57% of Indian restaurants in the county use "illegal and potentially dangerous" levels of dyes to give the sauce its distinctive orange-red hue.

The figure is highlighted in a report being unveiled by Ready Steady Cook chef James Martin on behalf of Surrey county council. Consumer safety experts fear the findings could reflect a trend reaching far beyond the county's borders.
