Food Additives and Artificial Colors Induce ADHD Behavior

Children are irritating and injuring their brains with commonly consumed garbage, that is the meaning of a study recently published in the Lancet.  One culprit is sodium benzoate, a preservative used in soda and other beverages.  Another culprit is artificial food coloring.

It is interesting to note that when the FDA was given some real regulatory power in 1939 the first thing they did was allow artificial food coloring into the food supply.  These chemical additives are derived from coal tar and made by the German drug companies like Bayer and BASF.  In the first year 39 million tons of these poisons were used in our food, a number which has grown ever since. 

The sale of food coloring to America provided major funding to the German government for the Nazi war machine during WWII – thanks FDA.  For more details, read Fight for Your Health: Exposing the FDA’s Betrayal of America.  Needless to say, damaging the brains of our citizens with food coloring creates many new customers for drug companies.  Artificial food coloring should immediately be banned from the food supply, which would be done if the FDA even had a slight interest in the health of Americans.
