Oh, a mother's intuition is  a powerful thing.  

A new study by British researchers finds a link between artificial colors/preservatives and hyperactive behavior in children.

I thought I would share an interesting article I just read in Ode Magazine called "Feed your brain" (http://www.odemagazine.com/...). The article talks about how there is a strong relationship between nutrition and aggression.

They did this one study in Britain with kids who had the common symptoms associated with ADHD. Half the kids received a daily omega-3 supplement and the other got plain olive oil. They found that the kids that took the omega-3 supplement did substantially better at school than those in the control group. When it came to spelling, for example, the omega-3 group performed twice as well as expected, whereas the control group continued to fall behind.

With all of the processed foods that are out there today, I can understand  why our kids aren't getting the right nutrients. I wonder if that really is the reason of why so many kids today are being diagnosed with ADHD.
