The IAP is seeking to be on parr with what Texas has done to ban these ingredients in Utah Public Schools. Research has shown, some of these additives are banned in other countries or have warning labels for causing attention problems in children. Below is a portion of SB314 introduced in Texas.

Some of the ingredients we are seeking to ban are the following:

1. brominated vegetable oil

2. potassium bromate

3. propylparaben

4. azodicarbonamide

5. butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA)

6. red dye

7. titanium dioxide
