What it is
A synthetic food colour identified in the EU as E110.
Why BOTIA flags it
BOTIA flags E110 because EU Regulation 1333/2008 places it among the colours for which specified foods must carry the additional statement that the colour may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children, subject to the regulation's exceptions. This is a labelling requirement, not a prediction of an effect in a particular child.
BOTIA CAN
- Detect E110 and the principal declared names for Sunset Yellow FCF.
- Show the EU additional-labelling context without converting the warning rule into an individual medical conclusion.
BOTIA CANNOT
- Determine the amount of colour present from the ingredient list.
- Predict whether a particular child will experience an effect or assume that the same warning wording applies in every jurisdiction.
