Most of you know that I've had issues with my WildChild until we discovered 'The Feingold Diet' (which is NOT just for ADHD children) and the problems decreased dramatically.
We haven't been too diligent on this diet these days and the affects are obvious. Since Halloween my WildChild has received 4 demerits and what seemed to have been long gone temper tantrums have returned. Lucky me!
Finally...FINALLY...someone that most people respect has stated that there is a definite connection in some kids with food dye consumption and behavior problems.
I can't tell you how much better I feel knowing that millions of Oprah Magazine will read that there is a link and it is best to avoid.
The UK has banned some dyes; and others come with warnings on food.
I feel sooooo much better.
Oh, I'm glad Oprah noticed it too. My family has been on the Feingold program for 6 years now. I still get friends and acquaintances that will say flat out "I don't belive it" when I mention the topic. This really ticks me off. It wasn't their children with asthma and weepng, infected ears.
