I wouldn't say there's even evidence of that.
> Widespread public belief that artificial food coloring causes ADHD-like hyperactivity in children originated from Benjamin Feingold, a pediatric allergist from California, who proposed in 1973 that salicylates, artificial colors, and artificial flavors cause hyperactivity in children;[35] however, there is no evidence to support broad claims that food coloring causes food intolerance and ADHD-like behavior in children.
