India's Food Colors: Health Concerns and Regulation Challenges

Imagine your food looks super colorful, like the bright sweets in a shop.

Those colors often come from chemicals called synthetic food colorants (SFCs).

They make food look pretty, but eating too much of them might not be good for you, especially for kids.

Some countries are worried about these colors and have rules about them, but India's rules are still catching up.

Some companies are now using natural colors from things like beets and spinach.

It's like choosing a rainbow of food, but making sure it's also healthy!
