Require all food & cosmetic labelling/packaging to highlight harmful ingredients
Implement a simple 'traffic light' system that highlights the number and risk level of harmful additives & ingredients in the products we consume and use on our bodies.
For example:
(# of additives) at high risk (red)
(#) Moderate risk (yellow)
(#) Low risk (green)
(#) Unknown risk (blue)
Around 1 in 2 people in the UK will be diagnosed with a form of cancer during their lifetime. Ultra-processed food has been linked to poor health and early death. Even food/cosmetics aimed at children contain harmful, carcinogenic preservatives & added chemicals (for example, to extend shelf life) that can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, auto-immune disorders, inflammatory diseases & more. Consumers have a right to access clear info about the potential health impact of the products we consume/use over a lifetime.
