Hello there! Have you ever tried intellectus 424 diet (just google it)? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate lost a ton of weight with it.
I prefer to call it the FONGOOL diet (I wrote out the Italian curse word phonetically). They sound alike dont they? This horrid diet doesn't just eliminate additives. I couldnt even have pizza as a kid because the tomatoes had 'salicylates' in them. Kids like pizza. They like peaches, strawberries, apples, and a long list of other things that were on the forbidden list. I had to even brush my teeth with fennel flavored toothpaste which was disgusting. I HATED HATED HATED the Fongool diet
FUCK THE FEINGOLD ASSOCIATION. MY MOM PUT ME ON THIS DIET WHEN I WAS 3 OR 4 YEARS OLD AND IT'S HORRIBLE, RESTRICTIVE, AND INEFFECTIVE. MY MOM SWORE BY IT, SHE THOUGHT IT WAS SO GREAT WHILE SHE WAS ENJOYING THINGS WHICH I COULDN'T HAVE. I COULDNT EVEN EAT MY HALLOWEEN CANDY. INSTEAD, I HAD TO EAT THESE DISGUSTING LOLLIES MADE OF CAROB. OTHER CHILDREN THOUGHT I WAS WEIRD. THE DIET SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS. BUT AT LEAST NOW I CAN EAT WHATEVER I WANT WHENEVER I WANT!!!!
Artifical Food coloring DOES cause ADD symptoms to go haywire! I repeat, artifical Food coloring DOES cause ADD symptoms to go haywire! Not all food colorings though, in particular FD&C Yellow #5 and FD&C Yellow #6. My source you might ask? Myself since I have an obnoxiously protruding case of ADD. I have been realizing that every time I eat something processed, like potato chips or mountain dew, my symptoms become unmanageable!
My medication, Adderall, isn't even strong enough when my symptoms become this hectic. However, when I, for example, drink or eat foods without the dyes Yellow #5 & Yellow #6, there is no problem at all! Then I began a controlled experiment on myself and a friend who also had ADD to see if I wasn't the only one.
Two glasses of water for each of us, one cup with 10 ml of Yellow food dye, from the grocery store, and the other with 10 ml of Blue food dye. We drank our cups with the Blue food dye, and no side effects. Then later, we drank the yellow food dye, and oh my god, we felt like we were mentally insane. Please, if someone has ADD or ADHD and is reading this, could you relate to the severity of these symptoms?
@dannybex - Because the Feingold program involves much more than the salicylates and, because of FDA loopholes, it is impossible to read labels and know you are truly eliminating all petro-based additives, we don't publish this information online. We don't want people reading labels then saying "I tried Feingold and it didn't work."
It takes the "normal" family a good 3 months, or more, to get used to the change in shopping patterns, and that is with the support materials and online forums.

Great advice. We have always cooked our meals "from scratch", are very healthy Old Folks with only one Prescription (BP) and our children are also phenomenally healthy AND everyone looks younger than our ages. However, I DO get violent reactions if ingesting anything with preservatives and artficial colors.

A so-called controversial diet... Yet no dislikes in sight.

My Mom put me on this diet when I was in grade school. It changed my life. Now that I'm older I'm going back on the diet.
I look younger tahn my years and have been blessed with good health. Thank you Dr. Feingold!

I'm a firm believer in this diet. I changed my son's behavior and hyperactivity just cutting out artificial color and mono-dyglicerides.

I have yet to see the scientific data found and used to come to this determination that methyl salicylate is affecting autism.
