I have many relatives and friends in Israel with children who are over-active, some even diagnosed with ADHD. The main cause could be the food colourings and sugar in Israeli foods and sweets. Studies in EU showed that food colour and sugar increase the chance of ADHD symptoms. I have seen cakes at Israeli kids birthday parties full of colour icing (imported from the USA actually). My - Dutch - children found the cakes too sweet and even disgusting, but the Israelis just loved it. And then the party became chaotic with a bunch of wild kids acting like mad monkeys.
Over the past 20 years I noticed Israeli children drink too much Cola and other sweet sodas. Even liquid medicines, like antibiotics is so pink and sweet, it is no wonder that children there suffer from behaving disorders.
Cut down on colourings and sugar and watch them change for the better. |
