A study funded by Britain’s Food Standards Agency has reported what many parents have long suspected: Artificial food colorings and preservatives can make kids hyperactive. The study is landmark in that it demonstrated an impact of artificial food additives on children in general, not just those previously diagnosed with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), as earlier studies had indicated. Additives such as those tested in the study are found not just in candy but in a wide variety of breakfast cereals, soft drinks and other processed foods, as well as in vitamins, toothpaste and over-the-counter medications.
