The Titanium Dioxide File — Ingredient File No. 5
Titanium dioxide is the white in white icing, coated candy, chewing gum, and a long list of things that don't look coloured at all. Europe removed it from the food supply — and the reason is the most instructive thing in this series. The finding wasn't that it causes harm. It was that a specific risk could no longer be ruled out. Regulators in Britain, Canada, and Australia read the same evidence and declined to follow. Same dossier, same year, opposite calls. This file goes to the record: what the European review actually concluded, what the particle-size question is really about, why the other agencies weren't persuaded, and what that disagreement tells you about the word "approved." Every claim is graded in a certainty ledger — established, probable, open, unsupported — and nothing gets promoted a grade to make a better headline. Where the evidence runs out, the ledger says so. It closes with a wallet card: what to look for on a package in ten seconds, no chemistry required. Not a scare, not a cleanse, not medical advice. The principle is on the cover and it cuts both ways — Approved ≠ Safe. Not Approved ≠ Unsafe. Instant PDF, built to read on a phone.
