Food safety investigators in the UK have found that the vast majority of curry sauce products sold on store shelves contain dangerous levels of artificial coloring chemicals which are linked to behavioral disorders such as ADD. The investigation names tartrazine -- equivalent to FD&C Yellow No. 5 in the United States. This artificial food color, which is made from coal tar, is also widely used in the United States and is considered just one of many such metabolic disruptors found in our national food supply.

People concerned about their health should read ingredient labels and avoid all foods and drinks containing FD&C Yellow No. 5 as well as other disease-promoting ingredients such as sodium nitrite, aspartame, hydrogenated oils and monosodium glutamate. These food ingredients are known to directly promote diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, nervous system disorders and obesity, among others.
