ARTIFICIAL COLOURS REMOVED-SPOT THE DIFFERENCE!
ARTIFICIAL COLOURS REMOVED- PROOF IT CAN BE DONE!
FOR THE U.K. MARKET!
Today I would like to share with you a remarkable lady whose journey into food advocacy was inspired by the love of her children.
Robyn O'Brien was one of the speakers I recently listened to via the 'Food Revolution Summit' - I posted up the link a couple of weeks ago.
The sudden onset of a food allergy in one of her own children led Robyn to investigate the food her family was eating and where it came from.
Robyn reveals the startling fact that American companies had removed harmful artificial dyes from some of the products they market overseas, but not in their own country!
Kraft, Coca Cola and Wal-Mart reformulated their product lines in other countries and no longer include the artificial food dyes, and they did it in response to consumer demand and an extraordinary study called the Southampton Study.
As Robyn states ' we aren’t asking our corporations to reinvent the wheel, we are simply asking for them to place the same products on our grocery store shelves that they are selling overseas'.
If they can do it for the U.K. market then why not in Australia too?
SPOT THE DIFFERENCE!
Robyn is the author of 'The Unhealthy Truth' and her TED talk may be viewed on You Tube.
