What people are saying about excitotoxins:
“Since learning about excitotoxins from Dr. James I have eliminated them from our diet as much as I can and my son is a completely different kid. He had been classified ADD and was unbearable most of the time. He would have fits of rage that would appear to come from nowhere and seem to be out of control even to himself. Now he is happy and fun to be around and he understands that excitotoxins turn him into the HULK (anger) so he chooses to avoid them. Thank you Dr. James” M.A.
“We try to eat good but when the holidays come around it gets harder especially for the kids. We have found that when we have had to many dyes and additives we take a few of Dr. James' Detoxalation and it clears them out of our systems.” J.A.
