I was asking more along the lines of how do they test you for it? What do they do to find out?

This is just a bit serious, though. I have looked near and far for information on this disorder, as I’m looking for the facts described above, and I find things on ADHD. Granted, they’re not incredibly different, ADHD and ADD, but they are different, and my paper is not on ADHD. I can’t seem to find a good list of effects of this disorder. Any and all help would be extremely appreciated.

Why, exactly, does Allura Red AC (Red Dye #40) exacerbate attention deficit symptoms, or lower IQ?
What exact mechanism does this "artificial color" trigger in the brain that produces such pronounced symptoms in some people? Does it cause permanent, lasting damage, or is it a transient thing, like the effects from caffeine?
