Food additive reactions on kids behaviour?

what are the signs that food additives are causing problems in a seven year old kiddie...since christmas mine has been up the wall freaking screaming hyper and angry..plus screaming for chocolates and sweets...how do i adjust the diet to make his eating much more healthy.

Mines been the same last couple of days, Ive removed all chocolate and sweets (why do people buy them so many sweets and choc for xmas??!) and its back to her normal diet today.

Just go back to the regular diet which hopefully is reasonably healthy anyway, and reserve sweets and choc for treats only.

Sounds like he could be reacting to something if he's had loads of sweets or biscuits, compounded maybe by the general excitement of Christmas.
Additives can crop up in food you wouldn't think would contain them.
It's going to be a laborious process of reading ingredients labels.
Google "e numbers" and see what you get.
