radio interview

Dr. Carlton has been working closely with the Feingold Organization for many years.  If you look for his topic of Food and Mood at this link, you can listen to his radio interview from this past week. 

A few highlights:

The three biggest food offenders for learning disabilities, ADHD, autism, health issues, and even depression in adults: dairy, wheat, and chocolate.

90% of children reacted to food additives in a double blind study.  Some do react much more strongly than others.

Children who were treated with the Feingold diet and then given vitamins in a double blind study saw 2-3 years increase in reading comprehension.  Some went off the vitamins and the increase in comprehesion lasted for an additional 1 1/2 years.  He urged parents not to buy their children vitamins with additives or fillers.

This one is lovely: Undertakers are saying that it takes the human body longer to decompose than it used to, due to our consumption of preservatives.
