Big ,I just wanted you to know that I have been giving your website addy out to some folkes in the disabled chat room.As many there have children-family friends with either add/adhd. ect. And they are amazed as I was at all the information they have found already.As I said many of the people have chatted in the disabled room for so long,thats where there friends and family are,so im directing alot of folkes to your site.I do have a question also.Has anyone heard that food containing red food colorings in it may have adverse affects on children with adhd? Thank You.Brenda:) Thanks again for the invite

Hi Brenda,

I have heard that red food coloring does have an effect. Don't know how true but can find out. Take care!

Brenda,

I found this interesting and relevant article that might address your question regarding reactions to red food coloring.
