00:00we don't want to make this documentary we have to so for a long time I was really
00:11apprehensive about sharing our story I really felt like our story was kind of
00:16hard to believe it's just like not it's not part of the conversation if synthetic
00:25dyes are having a small but real effect on the population which the data seems
00:28to suggest they do that is going to generally lead to a slight increase in
00:33attention problems and hyperactivity problems in children the more of these
00:36you have the more you slightly move the population into a direction where more
00:39people are actually having clinical problems any change you want to make oh
00:42no you know too costly science is bad those scientists are crazy they know it
00:49causes cancer and they still use it today people are spending thousands of dollars
00:54on prescriptions or medical bills a lot of that could be fixed with the knowledge
00:59about our food my kid is having a hard time but it's not that he had a bad day
01:05he's kind of having a bad life we see it time and time again from all the studies
01:11artificial food dyes have a very negative effect on children's behavior there's
01:17enough science now to show that they shouldn't be in any products invested by
01:21humans at all to look at a seven-year-old who just wants to die if he continues like
01:27this he won't make it to his teenagers the unavoidable fact that they're in so
01:32much of our food supply is one thing but the dirty little secret of what these
01:36chemicals are doing to our body is another why would you not let a parent know
01:40that to try to avoid these foods or industry take those additives out of the
01:46food and nobody has to avoid anything it's like those night thoughts and
01:51normally you just brush off and you don't think about when you're on diets they
01:54get loud they get to be like hey are you sure you want to be alive right now and
02:00it gets really hard to not listen but it's a small change on average for the
02:05population but it's one that has some long-term consequences it's just so crazy
02:10how something you don't know about has such a huge effect on behavior like all
02:14these kids who get labeled as behavior kids what if it was just die
02:24you
02:34you
