A1 and A2 milk - Polish researchers have found
considerably higher levels of BCM-7 in the breastmilk of mothers with allergies
than non-allergic mothers (Sidor K et al, Content of beta-casomorphins in milk
of women with a history of allergy, Pediatr Allergy Immunol, Jan 2008 Epub).
BCM-7 (beta-casomophin-7) is a protein fragment found in A1 milk. It can be
absorbed into the blood stream - e.g. with leaky gut - and has been implicated
in many conditions, from heart disease and diabetes to autism and
schizophrenia; and possibly other conditions including coeliac disease, MS,
Crohns Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Parkinsons Disease and SIDS. In

The Myths of Fruit - 'Fruit just doesn't provide that
much nutrition in the first place .... the fact is that fruit consists of
water, sugars (normally about 10%), some vitamin C, and some potassium (thought
to be good for controlling blood pressure). And that's kind of it. "It's a
myth that fruit is packed full of vitamins and minerals," says Tom
Sanders, who is director of the Nutritional Sciences Division at King's College
London. "... The really sad thing is that we don't eat enough vegetables,

[648] ADHD teen suicide attempts (May 2008) Winner of Courage Award May 2008
I started failsafe eating a
week ago in absolute desperation with my 14 year-old son who was diagnosed with
ADHD and ODD at the age of 6 years old. He progressed well on medication until
we had a car accident last year and he suffered minor brain damage. After the
accident his behaviour became worse and he has attempted suicide several times.
Last Wednesday I took him to hospital for sedation after he broke windows and
several holes in the wall with his head. Thursday morning I searched the net
for a solution and came across your website. I started the diet that day. Today
I have a son who obeys, talks to you face to face, calmer, quieter, he smiles
and has got himself a job part time which he loves. If he is offered food at work
he says no and takes his own or waits until he gets home.
One week later ... Today is
day 15 and he is still going great. We have just had the best school holidays
with our two sons playing instead of fighting physically and verbally. At work,
his boss doesn't even know he has ADHD and ODD. He did eat a piece of chicken
at work and advised me his brain felt funny and would not eat anything that is
not on the list. I'm glad he tried something off the list in moderation and
noticed the difference. Your Failsafe
Cookbook has been a great help and I do not leave the house without the
list of basic foods and list of additives. I call this my bible. Not only has
his behaviour changed but also his stomach pains and migraines are a thing of
the past. The television has gone from a volume of 60 to 15. Thank you for your
website that changed our lives and made my teenager happier. The difference has
been unbelievable. - Janelle, Qld

[646] 635: Tongue swelling reactions to flavour enhancer 635
in a young girl (May 2008)
My 9 year-old daughter has
a severe reaction to flavour enhancer 635. The first time she came into contact
with this additive was eating BBQ flavoured rice crackers. At the time she was
6 years old. She ate four crackers and complained that her tongue was feeling
all 'tingly'. I advised her to stop eating the crackers. Her taste buds had
swollen to around four times their normal size. I allowed her just a few
crackers a few days later to see if she had a similar reaction which she did
(thankfully it didn't affect her throat but I did warn her to let me know if
she got breathless etc). I then banned anything to be brought into the house
with this additive number. We then tried cheese-flavoured crackers - no 635 but
did contain 631 and 627. Again the same reaction. I have since learnt from your
website that these two additives make up the combination known as 635.
I now carefully check all
labels and have advised anyone else who may be feeding my child (birthday
parties included) that this is a major issue with her. I am just very grateful
that I didn't need to seek outside medical advice as I know not all doctors,
hospitals etc will accept this verdict. I have tried her a few more times on
these additives and we always have the same result. I always ensure that we
have a Ventolin puffer and antihistamines handy before trying these foods.
After having these additives she feels terrible for the next two days - feels
sick in the stomach, headaches, occasionally also feels ‘shaky on the inside’.
She had a similar reaction to a Pluto Pup (battered sausage on a stick) but I couldn't
get an ingredient list. I only assume that the additives were in the food - by
email, Qld [For anyone with symptoms like this, I recommend total avoidance of
627, 631 and 635 as some people have progressed from symptoms like this to
life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions

[645] From utter brat to affectionate, quiet and well
behaved in 5 weeks (May 2008)
I have been so inspired by
Failsafe, I feel like I have a different child from the utter brat five weeks
ago. My seven year-old had got to the point of having no friends, was to be
suspended from school, was continually at the principal’s office, hitting and
biting both parents etc. I had numerous meetings with his teacher, he was
seeing the school counsellor, psychologists, psychiatrists, social skills
training, but no change was occurring. My husband and I were in constant
disagreement with him and each other over his behaviour. This is the 5th week
he has been on the diet, and he is becoming the lovely child I always knew he
could be. He's affectionate, quietly spoken, well behaved and non-violent.
Games and toys which were banned due to his anger have been given back to him,
he's keen to converse and work hard at school. He has stated that he doesn't
hear the voices telling him to be bad any more, and his eyes are clear and
focused. Best of all, he has fully embraced the diet, mainly as it consists of
many of his favourite foods - pikelets, french toast, pancakes, white
chocolate and vanilla icecream. Knowing
that he was allowed to have these on his diet was a great selling point. He will check if he is allowed to have
something and is happy if the answer is 'no'. I try to offer alternatives to
him, to keep him happy and to show him that it's not a punishment to be on the
diet, that there are alternatives. He had an outing with his father last
weekend, and said that he had Macdonalds, and enjoyed the look of horror on my
face, only to tell me he was joking. He's even helping me to cook his
favourites - Merrill, by email.

[644] For the first time I enjoyed being a mother (May 2008)
A few days ago I had the
most wonderful son all day. Just a little mild irritability, nothing major in the
morning and evening and then the most delightful child. He was fun, and calm and for the first time I
have ever observed, patient. He was keen
to learn, and produced interesting drawings. He was working quietly (yes
quietly) on a computer game, and managed to persevere with a difficult problem
without giving up after the first or second attempt screaming. He was
considerate rather than demanding. I
asked him if he liked how he felt and he did. I told him that the new food he
was eating was helping stop his tantrums.
He said I was very clever for figuring out that food was the problem and
that he didn’t like having tantrums. My son was such a joy that it was like
someone had given me a different child in my son’s body. For the first time, I enjoyed being a mother
and loved spending time with him - Miranda, Qld.

[643] Diet and ADHD - his teacher asked what I had done (May
2008)
My son had been diagnosed
with ADHD last year but I have refused medication. After picking him up from
school early again, I thought I may have no option but to consider medication
as a serious option. I google searched and your book popped up and from the
afternoon I started my kids on the diet. Amazingly the results were seen the
next day when my son actually completed a test at school (and received 100%).
He never would sit at a desk long enough to even start a test let alone ace
one. His teacher asked what had I done to my son because she never had seen him
so engaged in the classroom. I purchased the book the next weekend and started
to try to learn more about the options available. It is difficult and easy at
the same time, and well worth it. Today my children had a treat (slice of
non-failsafe shop-purchased cake) and I could see the adverse effects almost
immediately, I know I have to continue with the diet if my children (especially
my son) are to succeed and I believe I am lucky I found failsafe -

[642] Asthma update two years on (May 2008)
Richie's original story
([402] March 2006) described how limiting his intake of preservatives and
sulphite containing foods such as mince meat, prawns, pizza, processed meats
etc had helped him with breathing problems he’d suffered for over 20 years.
His update in April 2008
reads: You probably get many emails of thanks and I have sent one or two
previously but what the hell, I'm going to send you another one just to let you
know how much my life has improved since taking your advice. I thank you with
every positive emotion I have for who you are, what you stand for and for
changing my life. I have no more breathing difficulties, no more sleep
problems, no more anxiety and all this leads to no more stress. No money can
buy this. I have been educating the people in my life on how damaging
additives, preservatives, sulphites etc. are and sent links to your site to
everyone in my address book - Richie, Vic.

[641] 220: Two reports of sore throat and cold-like symptoms
due to fruit cake (May 2008)
I know I am sensitive to
preservative 220 (sulphur dioxide), but a few months ago I ate a slice of fruit
cake (which I love). As soon as I ate it, my throat felt as if it went down the
"wrong" hole and my throat seemed to close a bit. I ended up with a
sore throat, cold like symptoms; runny eyes, blocked nose and sinuses,
persistent cough, mucus and my ears kept blocking. Oh my face broke out too.
This lasted for a week. Recently, I ate a fruit mince pie. The first one tasted
great so the next day I had to have another one. Now I am suffering. I have the
same symptoms as above and it's been nearly a week. I said to my hubby it was a
reaction from 220 but (being the expert he is) won't believe me. I've scanned
the internet to see if it's common - to prove a point - but with no luck. Does
anyone else have a reaction like this to 220?’
And a reply: I'm responding
to an email in the newsletter ("Can you help?" - March 2008)
regarding preservative 220. I've had the exact same reaction to eating fruit
cake, and also reacted to sulphur-containing eye drops. The first time I
reacted my throat felt swollen and closed a bit; the second time I ate quite a
bit of fruit cake and my throat closed a lot - felt as if I couldn't breathe.
This was followed by sore throat/"cold" symptoms lasting a few days.
I haven't pin-pointed it to 220 as I haven't re-tested.

[640] 220: Ventricular arrhythmia link to sulphites (May
2008)
I just thought I’d tell you
that although my cardiologist never questioned my diet, after two
hospitalizations in emergency for ventricular arrhythmia, and nearly two years
of fearing for my life, feeling my heart jumping all over the place, and being
miserable, I finally linked a very bad episode to a wedding and consumption of
red wine, and then to the foods in my cupboard. Since eliminating sulphites, I
have had NO problems. None of the medication I was given worked, (medication
rarely does for arrhythmia). I wonder why didn’t anyone mention this, not when
I went to the doctor, not when I was in hospital fearing I was going to die.
I’ve tested this three times, having been ‘arrhythmia free’ for months, and
then drunk champagne or wine, eaten foods (everything you would normally eat
and drink at a function) and each time, 4 to six hours after, my heart goes
crazy and I can’t sleep for the whole night. It’s like I’m ‘buzzing’ and
restless, with my heart banging around. This is the honest truth, I have no
symptoms, and I’m medication free, and even felt so good I’ve got back into
exercise without fear of dropping dead! It’s been six months (since the wedding
that triggered the biggest attack ever, and the linking to red wine), that I’ve
been 220 free, and free of symptoms (apart from the three ‘tests’ which were
one night tests). The link was obviously cumulative, the more 220 over the day
the worse the problem that night and the next days. Alcohol with 220 is a big trigger - so much
for drinking red wine every night for your health! My normal diet was toxic, I
was eating Vegemite, sun-dried tomatoes, dips, fruit juice cordial, I ate
cereal with dried fruit (and 220) every morning, and sauces (it’s in
everything) and consumed dried fruit as snacks, thinking it was ‘good for me’.
Only asthma is mentioned on the official government additive information site,
but this is a message I wish could get out, so others could at least try it, as
it won’t cause harm to avoid this preservative - Michiko, WA (has anyone else
experienced a problem like this with sulphites? - suedengate@ozemail.com.au)

[639] Easter nightmare (May 2008)
Just wanted to email you to
let you know how helpful I found your book, Fed
Up. I recommend it to all my
friends. My son was diagnosed with ADHD over a year ago now and we have always
had major problems with him every single year around Easter time. He is now 11
years old and we have known for a few years now that chocolate and food
colouring effect his behaviour dramatically.
It doesn't matter how many times you tell people please don't give him,
lollies or chocolate, they just don't get it.
He went to his friend’s house yesterday, was very irritable last night
and has totally lost control today. I begged him to tell me what he has eaten
and he said he ate 4 medium sized Easter Eggs.
I think it is a real pity
that other people and schools don't take these food additives seriously. He is
a joy but a handful on the best of days. I constantly refer to your book and he
has pulled it out of the bookshelf today to make some homemade
butterscotch.
He is a prime example of
how food effects children and I can guarantee everytime he has food colouring
or chocolate that we will have a raging bull on our hands the next day -

[638] Getting to the bottom of asthma/rhinitis (May 2008)
We have gone failsafe
before but I never managed to get to get to the bottom of the problem for my
son’s asthma/allergic rhinitis. I knew it was food, and suspected colours and
preservatives. The dietitian you recommended was very good and we had good
results with the elimination diet. Because of the asthma she wouldn't challenge
MSG, preservatives or colours. It turns out our son started to wheeze about day
6 of the salicylate challenge. After two days of the amine challenge we gave up
because he was so ANGRY (but not wheezing). Since then we have been to an
allergist and discovered he is allergic to dust mites, some grass pollens and
horse hair (we knew this one). We know we can minimise his symptoms and
reactions to these allergens by keeping his diet failsafe, and are considering
the de-sensitization path for at least the dust mites – email, Vic.

[637] One-liners (May 2008)
Our daughter was diagnosed
with asthma at the age of two. I could not understand how we could eat an
incredible diet, mainly organic, loads of fruit, vegetables and wonderful food,
and she would cough and wheeze all night. Since I found your books our lives
have changed. It turns out our daughter (now four) reacts to salicylates,
anything artificial, and smaller reactions to amines - Naomi, NSW.
We can totally relate to
the Prickly Princess in Sue's latest book (which by the way is FANTASTIC) -
Julie, by email.
My boys can now play like
the other kids without getting asthma - thanks to you - by email.
My son hasn’t been
hospitalised with asthma since we started failsafe two years ago but I have
just found out that his urticaria can be caused by food, especially annatto as
he accidentally ate quite a bit at vacation care over the school holidays -
email, NSW.
Preservatives seem to be responsible
for my son’s megatantrums. Before I was aware of the impact of preservatives,
he was having two or three screaming tantrums per day. Now we are failsafe, I
have noticed his reactions are around 24 hours later - by email.
Our son is coming ahead in
leaps and bounds with his school work since going failsafe. It also makes a
huge difference if the teachers tell you he can't see and hear properly -
glasses and grommets being inserted do wonders as well as the diet has - not
just labelling the child as "Difficult" which is what was happening –

Q. I regard potatoes more as a starchy carbohydrate than a
vegetable and wonder if my son has too many.
A.
Often called uber tubers, potatoes contain all the vitamins, minerals,
proteins, calories and cellulose necessary for life. A healthy adult can survive
indefinitely on potatoes alone. A potato crop can grow in any climate and can
yield four times the calories of a grain crop. (http://books.guardian.co.uk/review/story/0,,2263286,00.html).
Jamie Oliver lists potatoes as the top crop for home gardeners: 'Everyone
deserves to experience home-grown potatoes - what a pleasure!' To be low in
salicylates, potatoes must be large, old, brown skinned, white fleshed and
thickly peeled. Potatoes that are small, new, red skinned or have coloured
flesh - even cream colour like Kipfler - are higher in salicylates.
Q. I seem to have troubling neurological symptoms due to
Rosemary Extract, commonly used as an antioxidant in almost all vegetable oils.
The amounts are so small as to avoid labelling laws, yet enough to upset a
sensitive soul like myself. Even rabid herbalists concede rosemary can cause
gastric and neural problems in some people. Are you aware of any reports on
reactions to rosemary?
A.
Rosemary extract would be very high in natural food chemicals called
salicylates. These chemicals occur in most plant foods in varying amounts and
can cause the same problems as additives if consumed in large doses or by
sensitive people, see our salicylate factsheet.
Compare the following figures from Swain et al's 1985 paper 'Salicylates in
Foods': pears 0.00 (mg per 100 mg); carrot 0.23; strawberries 1.36; sultanas
(dried white grapes) 7.80; cinnamon powder 15.20; rosemary (dried) 68.00.
Q.I have just started my son on the elimination diet, he is
in the 3rd week and we have slowly seen some improvement.
A.
By the end of the 3rd week most people see spectacular improvement if they have
the diet right. Have you read the Checklist of Common Mistakes
on the website? You are welcome to send me a list of everything your son eats
in a typical day so I can look for possible mistakes. I can usually find about
five mistakes - some serious enough to prevent improvement - in food lists from
people who swear they are sticking strictly to the diet.
Q. I am finding it hard to come up with enough variety of
foods for my son as he is very fussy and this seems to limit what sort of foods
he can eat. Do you have any suggestions?
A.
Fussy eaters usually improve when you get the diet right. One mother whose two
young daughters had previously been picky described how they turned into 'clean
plate' eaters after three weeks on the diet. For suggestions regarding a
variety of foods I recommend the Failsafe Cookbook. One mother whose son was
lunch swapping wrote: 'I was able to buy your cookbook, so now he is getting
enough interesting things and variety that he feels he is not missing out!'
Q. Since we started our elimination diet I have been
experiencing a lot of diarrhoea, at one point, every day for a week. I thought
maybe it was a withdrawal reaction, but it has continued. I have stopped my 2
blocks of chocolate a day habit and to get me through I am using xylitol which
the homeopath said was completely safe. Is xylitol not recommended as a sugar
substitute?
A.
Xylitol is not safe for some people. It doesn't cause the full range of food
intolerance reactions such as behaviour or headaches, but any of the sugar free
sweeteners ending in '-ol' (e.g. Sorbitol, Mannitol) can cause diarrhea and
irritable bowel symptoms, especially if eaten frequently. See our Sugar Free Sweetener
factsheet for more details.
Q I've noticed that my brand of contraceptive pill has
artifical colouring. I really don't want to be consuming this every single day!
Do you know of any brands of the contraceptive pill that are failsafe or where
I might find out?
A. Contraceptive pills aren't great for women with food intolerance because
female hormones can make symptoms of food intolerance worse, i.e.
premenstrually and when taking oestrogen in medication. For pills without
artificial colour, you can browse through the Consumer Medicine Information
(CMI) sheets for ingredients of oral contraceptives at http://www.mydr.com.au/drugs/mediresults.asp.
