[QUOTE="Lulu, post: 116351, member: 4493"] B, a little off the original post question, but onto the question of food-behavior link, I find that red dye 40 and yellow 5 and/or 6 create a monster in my already impulsive/defiant 4yo. The red dye makes his scalp crawl, he says (you know, in his precocious 4yo language--"the muscles in my brain are moving around" and "it feels like bugs are running on my head and into my ears.") bleah. You'd be surprised how much of our food (and kids' vitamins and pencillins) contains those dyes. Supposedly healthy yogurts and fruit juices by reputable companies add red and yellow dye. It might be worth eliminating dyes, too, and seeing if some of the behaviors improve. [/QUOTE]
