Skittles Removes a Dangerous Ingredient Linked to DNA and Cellular Damage Following MAHA Report

One of the world's most famous candies will no longer have a dangerous ingredient linked to cellular and DNA damage.

A spokesperson for Mars Wrigley, which is based in New Jersey, informed Fox News this week that the company has removed the potentially dangerous and addictive titanium dioxide from Skittles in America.

The news comes following a report released by the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission last Thursday. The commission, chaired by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., addressed chronic diseases, especially those in children.

The report listed several potentially concerning food additives, including titanium dioxide. It noted that titanium dioxide is "widely used in a range of candies and sauces (and) may cause cellular and DNA damage."
