How long before natural ADHD remedies start to work?!
Question: How long before natural ADHD remedies start to work!?
My 7 year old son shows the classic ADHD symptoms and I started him on Sea Buddies Concentrate yesterday (minimum dosage)!. He is a big boy, so I am sure we will need to give him more that the recommended starting dosage (you may give up to 10)!. We have also started him on DHA!. How long should it be before I start to notice a change!? And is there something better than Concentrate!? What about Focus Factor!? Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I would first recommend sticking with the recommended dose unless a doctor says otherwise!.!.!. too much of a good thing isn't always a better thing and may actually hurt him in the long run to take too much!.
In general, supplements may take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to get into the system enough to notice a difference!. Supplements literally give your body nutrition it's otherwise lacking, so it takes time for your body to use that nutrition to repair any damage it can and to nourish those specific areas of the body!.
For something as severe as ADHD, it may take a few weeks to notice a positive change, but I have read a lot of research that shows how much Fish Oil (like is in the Sea Buddies Concentrate) can help kids with ADHD!. You should see good benefits soon enough, but they will be pretty gradual, so you may just realize "hey, he hasn't done ___ for a while" one day!.!.!. that's how I noticed that Fish Oil was helping me (and Ginkgo, but that's not generally safe for a child)!. Good luck to you both!Www@Answer-Health@Com

When i first took my son off the concerta he was taking, we started with a cleanse for 7 days!. After that we started with an Omega 3 mood enhancer by Country life(At wholefoods), and also with Neu b calmd'!. We noticed a changed after about two weeks then after about a month it was apparent he was doing much better!. Along with the regimen, we also had to make some big changes in his diet!.

Rather than treat the symptom have you tried the possible causes!. Many people think food additives are a major contributor to adhd!. Have you removed all sweets, fast foods, fizzy drinks, caffeine,processed foods from his diet!? Supplemented his diet with fresh fruit, vegetables, green tea!?

You should consider taking him to a good upper cervical Chiropractor experienced in treating ADHD kids!. It works extremely well, and in combination with that supplement should work wonders!.

It could be several months before you notice any real improvements!. Fish oil (contains DHA) is certainly supposed to help but improvements rarely come instantly and you need a bit of patience!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Within a week or two you should notice at least minor changes!. I would expect you to notice slight differences at first such as a more overall calm demeanor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
