Three separate readings, kept apart on purpose. This is not a score, and none of it says this product is harmful.

This label lists 2 colours.

E100 Curcumin
Yellow colour
No real concern strong evidence

What it is. The yellow pigment from turmeric root.

Why it is used. Colours mustards, sauces, dairy, confectionery and savoury snacks.

What the evidence says. A plant pigment people have eaten as a spice for a very long time, and regulators treat it as safe with an acceptable daily intake. EFSA noted that children who eat a lot of the foods it is used in could approach that intake, which is a reason to watch total use rather than a sign of harm.

Regulatory status UK Permitted EU Permitted US Permitted

Names and jobs come from the register of additives permitted in Great Britain, which we have not finished transcribing: a code shown without a name is a gap in our coverage, not a finding that it is unapproved. Naming one is not grading it either. Full detail appears only where we have an assessment against a named authority, so all of this describes our coverage rather than these additives. Most are common and low concern.
