BBC News: Additives 'cause bad behaviour'.

Fuck me, there's a surprise.

Seriously, we knew about this sort of thing well over 20 years ago, when I was a small and VERY hyperactive child. I don't think there's ever been a time when [livejournal.com profile] reallyfrank hasn't known that I can't eat artificial colours.

It's also well documented what happens when the HyperactiveHospitalFairy (WINOLJ) has a blue slushie, and everyone's seen [livejournal.com profile] ephrael high as a kite on Haribo.

Have I fallen through a fucking time hole, back to the 1970s?

Also: not going to be at Maelstrom, have work to do, but [livejournal.com profile] ephrael will be (in First Aid again). Have fun.

I did my first ever class presentation at high school on artificial additives, back when they were called 'E' numbers.

It was 1989, and it wasn't new information then.

My parents have known about my hypersensitivity to Sodium Saccharin and Aspartame since the early 80's, and have read ingredients packages ever since. Mind you, when faced with a hyperactive and disorderly child, followed by a throwing up child, that's pretty good impetus to read the label!
