What allergies or intolerances have you or your children got? They seem to be growing more and more common through each generation.

I would strongly agree with that. There are some natural things which are a big problem for our bodies. Anatto160b is a good example of that. It is used to colour things and make them look more appealing. It is from a plant but it has as strong a negative effect on our bodies as any artificial colouring. It has been associated with agression and head banging in young children. Many food companies, particularly yoghurt have increased their use of it as they can then put the label no artificial colourings, flavourings or preservatives. My point was that there are so many things added to our food, washing and cleaning products that are unhelpful. These things, along with other factors, also compromise our immunity, and have strong behavioural effects as well as an increase in the bodies intolerance as it just gets overloaded.
