Some research reported by Craig Miller, MD, Harvard Medical School, on the Aetna Intellihealth site reports findings in a study in Great Britain that shows a significant link between hyperactivity and additives such as artificial coloring in elementary school age children REGARDLESS OF ADD DIAGNOSIS. That’s right: even children without a hyperactivity Dx were adversely impacted.
One alarming study also reported involved administration of aspartame, the ubiquitous artificial sweetener. If you have not done so already, PLEASE read the post and link on this highly concerning topic: MORE BAD–REALLY BAD NEWS ABOUT ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS.
