[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 401554, member: 1991"] I know the studies done in Australia were funded by the government. I have been reading research into this for over 30 years here, have met the researchers (in various capacities) and can vouch for them. I have also met other doctors who dabble in research and make a mess of it, especially who then scream that the inability to get published for them, is conspiracy by the conservative medical fraternity. No, it has nothing to do with poor research methodology! yeah, right... The RPAH studies do get published because they have been carried out meticulously and written up accurately. Susie, the concept has gone beyond just additives. Yes, additives are one group of potentially problem-causing chemicals. But I have met too many people who also have problems with some groups of foods. I'm sure we all know people who can't eat too many onions (or members of the onion family) because it makes them feel bloated or sick in some way. It is similar for other food groups and other natural chemicals. It's ironic but in our house, although we have done our best (successfully while we thought we needed it) to avoid all additives, as we had to have the additive in medication, we discovered that three of us in the family are allergic each to one artificial colouring. To be more accurate, two of us are allergic (urticaria) and another as a sensitivity reaction (cerebral irritability). Otherwise - no problem. Marg [/QUOTE]
