Natural Supplements And Add
Posted: 12-06-07 11:53am

Has anyone tried natural supplements instead of medication to control ADD? I really do not want to go straight to medication with out trying to monitor the lifestyle first. Any suggestion?

Diet Therapy For Adhd
Posted: 01-01-08 20:12pm

I just finished an ebook that addresses diet therapy for ADHD. Since the site is new, I have few testimonies. I would love to send you a copy of the book, as well the bonus ADHD cookbook in exchange for your honest assessment. Drop me an email and I'll send it right over. I think you will find the information very useful.

Blessings to you,
Christine Abraham

Elimination diet works well, also cookbooks already out there, such as diabetic or celiac cookbooks can work wonders for a person with AD/HD becuase they can get rid of sugars that over-run the bloodstream.

Eliminate ALL high fructose corn syrup, all drinks besides water and 100% orange juice or 100% apple juice and white flour and its products.

adhd and kids
Posted: 01-19-08 06:09am

well all i can say is these kids are a blessing,they are here to build and strenthen us, yes i along as many ohters would like a gold medal thankyou.well done parents.
Our son, process of elimination with his diet was our key, no preservatives. sodium nitrate was a trigger(processed meats)colourings, additives all nastys.he couldnt even have bread.
I have him on a tsp daily of Flaxseed oil-linseed. and magnesium with multi vitamin.(which has helped wiht athsma also We had 10 years of extreemly difficult and many tears on my behalf but now we are winning. and homeschooling. i said i could have had 10 kids and that one would have been more demanding than the lot.
He is now 13 and we are dealing wiht normal teenage stuff.
I also found discipline a huge key and making him aware of himself and how he looks to others, at 12 he finally understood. he was very good at pressups, rarely now does he need them

Attend Supplement for ADHD
Posted: 01-25-08 10:52am

Ethan has used Attend for a number of years. It's quite good. We tried a number of other supplements before that didn't seem to do the trick. The site we buy from offers a money-back guarantee but some sites don't. I would make sure you buy from a site that offers the guarantee. What works for one person might not work for another. Such is ADD...

supplements and ADHD
Posted: 01-28-08 01:18am

I have a son with ADHD and LD. He is very bright. He started on strattera but became depressed taking it. We have a family history of mental disorders so this was not all that shocking to me. Our doctor put him on another med to counter act the depression. Then the aggression started. So let's try another med. You get the picture.

I decided to try supplements. There are many out there. Studies are showing that fish oil is extremely effective. Alpha-GPC is a choline supplement that is effective. MindCare by Himalaya is another product used for ADHD. All of these supplements take time to be efficacious. I could go on and on. I have been using supplements for quite awhile for various things. If you want more info, let me know.

Supplement are good if you get the right one from companies that still have integrity and are not just out there to try to just make a profit from making synthetic supplements. The underlining factor is that supplement are good for you when they come from raw plant source which still have energy from when it was harvest. The energy that it accumulated from its life cycle determines it healing factor on you. There’s many other method which work much faster then supplement to heal the body naturally that can help naturally heal the symptoms a person is having now and prevent them from ever obtaining it to begin with.

A quick update of things I have been learning. I have found out that essential fatty acids are possibly a good way to address ADD (they are proven to help brain development). I have been giving my son a product called Vitabase Focus Formula which is a multi-vitamin with essential fatty acids. The results have been great--no notes from the teacher for some time.
