Abstract

Natural textile dyes, derived from plants, animals, and microorganisms, are increasingly used in food and nutrition to replace synthetic colorants due to their safety, sustainability, and health-promoting properties. These colorants (e.g., turmeric, beetroot, chlorophyll) often provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial benefits.
