    i was hunting around and found an article on ninemsn about a particular nutritionist in australia.

    Nutritionist Sue Dengate has been fighting the fight against the dangerous food additives for the past 15 years, now she's compiled her dirty dozen.
    She says any of these additives can cause severe asthma, serious rashes, swelling of the lips and tongue, or behavioural problems such as ADHD.

    * Food colourings: Tartrazine (102), sunset yellow (110), amaranth (123), erythrosine (127) and annatto extracts (160b).
    * Preservatives: Sodium benzoate (e211), sulphur dioxide (220), calcium propionate (282).
    * Antioxidant: Bha or buylated hydroxyanisole (320).
    * Flavour enhancers: MSG or monosodium glutamate (621) and ribonucleotides (635) artificial sweetener aspartame(951)
