ADHD Has A Simple Cause

Health and Well-BeingNew research is appearing now that's showing the link between the consumption of food additives by children -- especially food colorings -- and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD. Many well-informed parents have long realized that the consumption of food additives causes hyperactivity in their children, but most conventional doctors have dismissed the idea.



Many doctors also dismiss the idea that food choice has any relationship to health in the first place.

The real story, however, is not that food additives and artificial colorings cause ADHD, but that there are several other dietary substances that heavily influence a child's mental state and day-to-day behavior.

Eating processed foods containing additives and artificial colors introduces toxic chemicals into your bloodstream. Those chemicals find their way into the brain and alter brain function, and in the case of children who have been diagnosed with ADHD, it alters their behavior to make them restless or to have a shortened attention span.

I so agree!
In the early 80's my son was prescribed high doses of Ritalin and we chose not to give it to him. Instead we controlled the sugar, preservatives and food dye in his diet. He did fine. We taught him to listen to his heart beat if he felt "out of control" this calmed him right down. He was 6 yrs. old then. He had to struggle some in school but graduated with out ever being held back and is a productive adult today!
