Here is an email from Sally Bunday, a founder of our sister organization, the Hyperactive Childrens' Support Group:

In recent weeks there have been two major news articles about diet and ADHD.

1)  Daily Mail, January 28, written by John Naish in the Good Health pages. Two university researchers, Dr. Ally Houston of the University of Oxford has ADHD and depression, but since changing his diet is much better, and Dr. Ian Campbell of the University of Edinburg, are leading radical new research into diet for ADHD and Bi-polar conditions.  The article talks about processed foods and additives.

Ally says that within weeks his ADHD symptoms were reduced to almost zero. I did write to him to say we have been working on all that for 47 years.  He has replied to say that he did not want to reinvent the wheel.

2) An article written by Louise Atkinson in the February 9 Daily Mail again, about diet and ADHD. One sentence stated, "This is a small but growing body of science which links the chemical additives, colorings and preservatives in ultra-processed foods with poor behavior and neurodiversity in children. And experts suspect the sensitivities extend into adulthood."

Well, well, who would have thought that?! When I read that I did not know whether to laugh or cry. These people are over 50 years late with their findings.  I wonder what Dr. Feingold would think.
