WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Certain artificial food colorings and
other additives can worsen hyperactive behaviors in children
aged 3 to 9, British researchers reported on Wednesday.
Tests on more than 300 children showed significant differences
in their behavior when they drank fruit drinks spiked with a
mixture of food colorings and preservatives, Jim Stevenson and
colleagues at the University of Southampton said.
"These findings show that adverse effects are not just
seen in children with extreme hyperactivity (such as ADHD) but
can also be seen in the general population and across the range
of severities of hyperactivity," the researchers wrote in
their study, published in the Lancet medical journal.
Stevenson's team, which has been studying the effects of food
additives in children for years, made up two mixtures to test
in one group of 3-year-olds and a second group of children aged
8 and 9.
They included sunset yellow coloring, also known as E110;
carmoisine, or E122; tartrazine, or E102; ponceau 4R, or E124;
the preservative sodium benzoate, or E211; and other colors.
One of the two mixtures contained ingredients commonly drunk
by young British children in popular drinks, they said. They
did not specify what foods might include the additives.
Both mixtures significantly affected the older children. The
3-year-olds were most affected by the mixture that closely resembled
the average intake for children that age, Stevenson's team reported.
