Tropicana High Premium orange juice

Jonner

Hi

My son who is 4/12 has recently strated drinking Tropicana pure orange juice High Premium. My son is ASD and possibly ADHD (can't have diagnosis till he is five for ADHD)

My question is:

Since my son recently started drinking the above juice he seem very hyperactive and has been very restless at night, now i am not saying it is the juice but i highly suspect it is. Can someone please tell me if Tropicana pur orange juice is ok for hyperactive children, or should i be avoiding this drink ?

Your replies would be most appreciated

    If you find something that he reacts to then I would simply switch to something else. I don't know this particular drink but it may contain artificial colourings that many people believe can set people off who are sensitive/intolerant. A lot of people with ASD or ADHD react to food. Does he react to other orange juices or is there something different in Tropicana?

    As Lamouche says, it may just be the high sugar content setting him going.
