A DANGEROUS ingredient found in tangy sodas is being banned over fears it is not safe to drink.<\/p>\n

The US Food and Drug Administration is outlawing all drinks containing brominated vegetable oil after toxicological studies found it can cause problems with your thyroid.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The chemical is found in some home brand sodas from Walmart, Giant and Food Lion, as well as Sun Drop.<\/p>\n

The rule-change will bring the US in line with the UK, European Union, Japan, India and other countries where BVO is already banned.<\/p>\n

James Jones, of the FDA, said: \u201cThe FDA proposed to revoke the regulation authorising the use of brominated vegetable oil in food.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FDA is issuing a proposed rule now because the agency has recent data from studies it conducted that demonstrate adverse health effects in animals at levels more closely approximating real-world human exposure.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on these data and remaining unresolved safety questions, the FDA can no longer conclude that the use of BVO in food is safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brominated vegetable oil is a type of emulsifier that has been used to stop citrus flavouring separating and rising to the top in some sodas.<\/p>\n

It lost its \u201cgenerally safe\u201d status in the 1970s, when regulators started monitoring studies to determine its risk levels to humans.<\/p>\n

One recent study highlighted by the FDA showed the chemicals can have toxic effects on the thyroid.<\/p>\n

The research, published in Food and Chemical Toxicology, showed it was potentially dangerous in mice.<\/p>\n

Other papers have also linked BVO to a build up of fat in the heart, liver and calf muscle.<\/p>\n

Coca Cola stopped using BVO in all its products in 2014 and PepsiCo also removed it from all drinks in 2019.<\/p>\n

Keurig Dr Pepper, the maker of Sun Drop, said it was already planning on removing BVO from its products before the FDA announcement.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson said: \u201cWe have been actively reformulating Sun Drop to no longer include this ingredient and will remain compliant with all state and national regulations.\u201d<\/p>\n

The chemical is also found in Wamart's Mountain Lightning and Food Lion's Mountain Lion.<\/p>\n

Walmart and Food Lion have been approached for comment.<\/p>\n
