Flagged additives

• Sunset yellow FCF — Southampton Six colour; hyperactivity/attention concern in children.
• Allura red AC — Southampton Six colour; hyperactivity/attention concern in children.
• Sodium benzoate — Preservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.
• Sucralose — Sweetener; emerging genotoxicity concern around the impurity/metabolite sucralose-6-acetate.
• Potassium phosphates — Inorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
• Acesulfame K — Sweetener; broadly assessed safe but some consumer-avoidance and limited animal-study questions.
