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.

Hi my name is Alexis. I just wanted to say how great your blog is. Within the last year we have been dealing with a lot of these types of issues with my now three year old son. His biggest issues are his hyperactivity/inattentiveness and his self destructive behavior. My son would have a tantrum and bang his head on the wall or floor and start clawing at his neck and throat area. We have looked into so many things and finally learned about dyes. He has been off of them for six months and still throws tantrums but doesn't hurt himself any more. I can tell when someone has given them to him and hasn't obeyed our wishes. Now to make his attention span grow.
ReplyDeleteyour blog is awesome, alexis
Hi Alexis,
DeleteAwe, it must have been so hard seeing him like that! I'm glad that you found this blog and that it helped you. :) I'm so glad that we are able to keep artificial dyes from our children. They are so much better without it!!! Thanks for the comment!
