When Food Dyes Color Our Childâs Behavior

Posted by Julie on 03/26/2011 at 11:46 PM I am soooooo happy you are addressing this issue. I have suspected for a while but recently confirmed that my daughter is very sensitive to all artificial food dyes. Not only does she get hyperactive (which tends to be her initial reaction to the dyes) but she becomes extremely cranky, irritable, aggressive and distracted for several days after consuming even a tiny amount (e.g. one Tylenol containing dye). We’ve rarely given our children candy or junk food, which is why we were even able to discover the link to the dye in the first place. I feel like I finally have the child I was meant to have and she is so much happier! Removing the dye has also made us a much happier and relaxed family; it’s amazing how one out-of-control child can negatively affect so many aspects of family life. I can only imagine how many children out there ...
