Dr Ben Feingold, an American allergist, links mass food additives to behaviour problems, scholastic failure, and crime. He cites postwar processing and environmental contamination as factors, cites rapid improvement in some children on strict additive diets, and argues for parental caution while scientists study long term effects. Australia’s food tech council defends strict NHMRC oversight, noting additives must prove consumer benefit and safety.
