Another study for the "Its Not Fat and Carbs That's Destroying Our Bodies, Its Chemicals" file. Artificial coloring causes hyperactivity in children.

BTW, you saved my health today. Did you know that?
I was famished on my way home from work and pulled out
4 bucks to make a run for the border or the golden
arches. Then I remembered your previous post about
eating that kinda food and feeling like dying. So I
made myself get out of the turn lane, come home, and
eat a bowl of lentil soup. Thank you!

did they connect the fact that most foods with artificial coloring also have high sugar content? just a guess, but I'm think that maybe the sugar has something to do with it

the article mentions they gave 'cocktails' of the artificial flavorings, which means it wasn't the foods themselves. i'd also hazard a guess that given the nature of scientists, they would have accounted for such variables.
