The effects of diet and sublingual provocative testing on eye movements with dyslexic individuals.
A double blind study was conducted utilizing the EDL/Biometrics Reading Eye Camera to determine if poor diets and altered reactions could have a detrimental effect on the eye movements of a group of dyslexic individuals. The study found that a poor diet, high in sugar, and a provocative challenge of cane sugar caused more erratic eye movements, while a good diet, without sugar, caused "normal" eye movements for the dyslexic individuals.
