I’ve heard the red dye claims from the same people that claim random other foodstuff causes hyperactivity or learning disabilities so until I see concrete evidence, I’m gonna ignore it but I guess keep it in mind. Anecdotally, I got my kid a Big Red soda for the ride home this morning and he’s done really well today and hasn’t spun in our spinny chair incessantly today like he usually does.
Yeah that’s totally fair. It’s not something I make a big deal of, more just trying not to buy it when I can help it. I’ve found myself erring on the side of caution more after having kids.
I haven’t had a big red in ages! Should just be Big Red 40 I guess, ha. You’d think if it did make the ADHD worse it’d be a strong effect so maybe that’s why the evidence is mixed.
