I want to share this site that I came across. The Center for science in the Public Interest has some very interesting facts about food colorings and other additives. Check out cspinet.org. I also filed a report form with my concerns about red dye. You can file your report with www.cspinet.org/fooddyes/index.html. It only took a few minutes to complete the form and I felt more empowered to do more.
Check out www.cspinet.org/new/200806022.html. I need to find out what actions were taken after this petition was filed.
Check out www.fda.gov/consumer/updates/coloradditives121007.html
You can find the number to call to report or you can email CAERS@cfsan.fda.gov
Please do at least one of these. Together we can make a difference!
This blog is to advocate for children who seem to have behavior problems, but are really reacting to the artificial dyes found in foods and medicines. It is to help others to be more aware of how food affects your mood. Children and adults can suddenly become irritable, have headaches, and even become angry or aggressive after ingesting synthetic artificial dyes. I recommend avoiding all artificial colors. This blog was created to help you find the information you need.

ReplyDeleteFood dye diaries, you are doing a terrific job getting all the important things that I wanted to say to help others. With our children depending on us and for own our sanity we need to try our best!
ReplyDeleteI keep reading this and that about dyes... So where in the world do we FIND foods and drinks without it? No one seems to talk about that!!! Punch for example. I love punch, w/o sugar.. so I get the tiny packets of the sugar free, that are nice and bright red. I could care less about the color but I can not seem to find punch w/o it! Help!
