Huh. Interesting. 🤔💡⁠ A little critical thinking never hurt anyone, right? Right!⁠ ⁠ 📅 As of January 15, 2025, the FDA banned FD&C Red No. 3 from food & ingested drugs. Why? It's derived from petroleum. 🚨⁠ ⁠ 🚨 Now, brands are rushing to use Red Dye 40—linked to ADHD, allergies, gut issues, etc. Red 40? Made from petroleum byproducts or coal tar. Huh. Interesting.⁠ ⁠ 💄 In the 1990s, Red Dye 3 was banned from cosmetics for cancer concerns—yet, it was still used in food for decades. Huh. Interesting.⁠ ⁠ 🚨 What else is made from petroleum & coal tar that may not be good for us yet is still legally sold?⁠ 🟡 Yellow 5⁠ 🔵 Blue 1⁠ 🟢 Green 3⁠ 🟤 Brown HT⁠ 🔴 Ponceau 4R⁠ ⚠️ BHA, BHT, TBHQ, Propyl Gallate⁠ ⚠️ Aspartame, Saccharin⁠ ⚠️ Polysorbate 80 & 60, Titanium Dioxide⁠ ⁠ Huh. Interesting. 🤨⁠ ⁠ 💭 Maybe we should rethink synthetic gummy vitamins? Sure, they taste good—but do we really want more petroleum-derived ingredients in our bodies?⁠ ⁠ At Silver Fern™, we all have families, many with small kids. While our children would inhale gummy vitamins loaded with synthetics, we’re hesitant to call that "healthy."⁠ ⁠ And for us adults? Well, I already have ADHD, and my wife questions my "mental stability," so I’m not trying to make things worse. 🤷‍♂️⁠ ⁠ The choice is yours!⁠ Of course, I expect a snarky comment accusing us of being greedy capitalists. To which I’ll say:⁠ ⁠ 💰 “No sh*t, we’re a business. We have to make money. Surprise.”⁠ OR⁠ 🔬 “We sell what we believe to be the best products, at low margins, hoping that quality keeps you with us long-term.”⁠ ⁠ Your health. Your choice. 🤷‍♂️⁠ ⁠ #silverfernbrand #vitamins #wholefoodvitamins #reddye40 #petroleum #syntheticvitamins #wholefoodvitamins
