FDA will finally look at link between artificial food dyes and children's behavior | MNN - Mother Nature Network

mac and cheese

As a Dance Therapist, I used to work with special needs kids who had either an ADD or ADHD diagnosis.  I often felt like the blue or red fruit punch and other brightly colored snacks they were eating couldn’t be good for their health or attention.  Of course this being over 10 years ago no one wanted to hear what I had to say.  Check this article out and see what I had a hunch about so many years ago.

I always knew about the red dye in drinks like cool aid. I don't let my children drink soda or other artificially flavored/colored food items.
