Canada
Dec 13, 2023
Health Canada's Food Directorate has completed a premarket safety assessment of Allura Red for use as a colouring agent in fruit flavoured beer. The Directorate has considered the allergenicity, chemistry, microbiology, nutrition, and toxicology aspects in the assessment. Since the results of the assessment support the safety of Allura Red for its requested use, Health Canada has modified the List of Permitted Colouring Agents to extend the use of Allura Red to fruit flavoured beer.
