Some of you may not know but my son has had behaviorial issues for most of his life. You can read more about our life HERE.

With that said.....

A friend just called me and told me that Charles Gibson is doing a story on food coloring and artificial flavors and the health (and behavioral) problems are kids are having. It's on at 6:30 PST.

Check your local ABC station: ABC NEWS With Charles Gibson. Watch it and let's discuss tomorrow!!!

Jun. 4, 2008 at 10:54 AM Both my step brother and my little brother cannot have hot dogs with msg in them. They both get horrible migraines, and my little brother gets horribly sick. I also found out from a friend of my mom's that kids born by c-section have more problems because of how they take the kid out. If any one has had a kid by c-section, you should get them checked by a chiropractor (sp?) for neck misalignments. My mom's friend did that with her son and it was amazing the difference it made. It doesn't have to hurt them to be a problem. It's just little nerves that aren't transmitting signals right. Plus you have to watch dairy products because of the hormones in the milk and such. The way it is going, nothing will be good for us anymore.

Eliminating red dye is a good start but go further. Red dye is used most so it is easy to see why it gets most of the blame. Yellow #5 is the second most commonly used dye.
