Comments on: Food Manufacturers Ban Food Dyes in Europe to Protect Kids, but Not in the U.S. http://earthfirst.com/food-manufacturers-ban-food-dyes-in-europe-to-protect-kids-but-not-in-the-us/ A Sharp Eye -- With a Green Edge Tue, 16 Mar 2010 14:05:12 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Lisa http://earthfirst.com/food-manufacturers-ban-food-dyes-in-europe-to-protect-kids-but-not-in-the-us/comment-page-1/#comment-1269 Lisa Thu, 12 Jun 2008 00:59:23 +0000 http://earthfirst.com/?p=1182#comment-1269 Has the FDA ever considered looking at something like childhood cancer, ADHD, Autism, hyperactivity, etc., etc., etc. to see if there is a link to artificial colorings, flavoring, etc? Why is when you have a child deemed hyperactive, the first they tell you to do is to remove things like that from their diet? Since you are removing the processed sugar, you are naturally removing the artifices. I actually blogged today about the effects of a cupcake with electric blue icing at my son's end of school party and the effects on my skin. The thing about the Europeans they are much more progressive when it comes to regulating things found in food and skin care products. I just wish that people in the US would wise up and learn to treat the whole body, not just the condition. Quality of life could be so much better.
