Coloring

Actually it’s the food colorings/synthetic dyes in our USA foods and vitamins that is yet another detail eroding our health.  Yellow#_ and red #_ are examples of what we can see on labels.
In the 1970s I learned scientists and a Dr Feingold had evidence synthetic food dyes were factors involved in causing kids’ hyperactivity, learning problems, and unruly behavior.  In the 1980s Ralph Nader tried to force the FDA to label them as toxins to avoid.

In the 1990s I initiated a plan to give a multivitamin to a small child patient who was only willing to eat bananas.  The medical facility dispensed a popular brand name vitamin with various numbered colors listed.
This patient was already brain-injured and displaying hyperactive behavior! The results: he jumped higher, ran faster, and began to climb up on a table to dance without music.  He never did speak.
Now there’s damning evidence against these dyes –
growth of tumors, in addition to symptoms listed above.  While other countries, like the European Union have banned food dyes, the US load is increasing.  This old brand name kids vitamin is in my neighborhood now being sold to unsuspecting caregivers.
Dr Mercola’s website has the science.  The Center for Science in the Public Interest has opportunity for online activism to ban these substances as they have done in Europe.
What reminds me about all this?  My hairdresser. My new stylist, Becca, displays a sign saying she cuts hair for children’s wigs – for kids who have lost their hair after chemo & radiation.  Hmm😐
