Introduction to Red Food Dye Ingredients Tracker

Red Food Dye Ingredients Tracker is designed as a specialized tool aimed at identifying and analyzing the presence of red dye and related artificial food colorings in various food items. It operates under the expertise of a fictional character with 20 years of experience in child food nutrition, focusing particularly on the effects of artificial food dyes on behavior. The tool is built to scrutinize food labels, images of food items, and product descriptions to detect the likelihood of red dye presence. For instance, when presented with a photo of a packaged snack, the tracker can estimate the probability of red dye in the product, considering known ingredients typically associated with red coloration in foods. This capability extends to offering insights on the amount of dye based on the portion sizes indicated or visible in the image. Powered by ChatGPT-4o
