“I just wanted to let you know, some years ago now you helped me with my son who is salicylate sensitive. He has just been offered a place at Cambridge University and it’s all thanks to you! Without your help schooling would have been a complete disaster and I dread to think what would have become of him. You saved our lives and out sanity and have given him such a tremendous future – THANK YOU.”

“We have been following your dietary advice for our son since November 2001. The diet has been a great success in alleviating our son’s behaviour problem. We are so pleased with your support we would like to become members of the group. I am willing to provide a local ear for new people thinking of trying the diet if you feel this would be of benefit to anyone.”
ADHD/Hyperactive Children – A Guide for Parents
The eminent American doctor, Ben Feingold laid the foundations with his now well-recognized diet , and subsequent discoveries have been built upon this. Space in the book has been devoted to coping with the day-to-day dietary needs of the Hyperactive child; foods and drinks to be avoided; Colourings, Flavourings and Preservatives to guard against. A section on food-additives includes the much publicised “E” Numbers and details of some of the naturally-occurring chemicals like salicylates are also discussed.
The Feingold Food Programme itself is included along with a selection of suggestions for meals; another useful section deals with some of the food-allergies which may contribute to a child’s behaviour.
The Guide is intended to be just that! No blanket remedy is possible as no two children may react in the same way to the presence of a “substance” in their diet. Experience by many parents has shown that “trial-and-error” can play a big part in things.
But one thing is certain. The whole family can benefit from the improvements suggested in this book and there are unlikely to be any harmful long-term side-effects!
