Answer:

Some Dyes May Contain Cancer-Causing Contaminants..

While most food dyes did not cause any adverse effects in toxicity studies, there is some concern about possible contaminants in the dyes.

Red 40, Yellow 5 and Yellow 6 may contain contaminants that are known cancer-causing substances. Benzidine, 4-aminobiphenyl and 4-aminoazobenzene are potential carcinogens that have been found in food dyes.

These contaminants are allowed in the dyes because they are present in low levels, which are presumed to be safe.

More research is needed..

Artificial food dye consumption is on the rise, especially among children. Consuming too much food dye containing contaminants could pose a health risk.

However, with the exception of Red 3, there is currently no convincing evidence that artificial food dyes cause cancer.

Nevertheless, note that most of the studies evaluating the safety of food dyes were performed decades ago.

Since then, the intake of dyes has dramatically increased and often multiple food dyes are combined in a food, along with other preservatives.
