Turmeric possesses a bright yellow color and is often used in the food industry to add color and aroma to products. It is known for its strong coloring power, vibrant color, heat stability, and non-toxicity. It is considered one of the most valuable natural food colorants and is recognized as a safe natural colorant by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
