What did studies of Artificial food dyes find?

3

Studies of Artificial food dyes measured 3 outcomes; the most studied are lifespan (1 study), lipofuscin accumulation (1) and oxidative stress and ROS signaling (1).

Lifespan

1 study

  1. Artificial food dyes shorten lifespan in worms.

    “as well as a heavy shortening of lifespan, alterations in movement patterns and alterations in the production of dopamine receptors.”

Lipofuscin accumulation

1 study

  1. Artificial food dyes increase lipofuscin accumulation in worms.

    “The exposition of C. elegans to these artificial dyes produced damage related with aging such as oxidative stress and lipofuscin accumulation”
