Interesting... I have read that everyone is sensitive to red dye #40 (and artificial food dyes in general, but this one in particular has been linked to ODD and ADHD).
I'd like to hear more about this type of practitioner, too.

I'm not really familiar with this type of person. What type of test was it ? I had my son tested by an ENT and he is allergic to dust mites. How easy is it to get rid of those ? I've long known he has a sensitivity to sugar, caffeine, and red #40, none of which give my younger son a problem. Can you tell me more about this type pf practitioner ?

My daughter lives with me and we both take care of her son 7 yrs. We recently took him to an Auricular Acupuncturist and had him tested for sensitivities and found he was sensitive to Mixed pollens, Rape seed, red and yellow dye, unrefined brown sugar, refined brown and white sugar, icing sugar, Butterscotch, Peaches, Egg whites, Egg yolks, and mildly sensitive to blueberries and yogurt also brewed coffee and white wine which in his case do not apply at this time. Since we have limited or totally removed these items there has been such a change. He is not the angry and uncontrolable child he was before and life is easier with him. We can even take him shopping without much trouble. The testing is non invasive and I really had my doubts about it, I am now a beliver.
