Question:
What is the best way to treat ADD/ADHD Diet or drugs?
My son was recently diagnosed with ADD/ADHD a combination of both. After researching the medication his doctor prescribed for him, I decided not to give the medication to to my son. The side effect of the drug could damage his heart in the long run.
Answers:
Diet definitely, there are many cases of medication for ADD/ADHD causing other conditions. Drugs don't create a healing environment in the body, natural foods and herbs do. Consult a naturopath and read Patrick Holford. When I was in school there were no kids with ADD or ADHD.
I think it is being over-diagnosed, either out of laziness or to sell drugs. Doctors are given incentives by pharmaceutical companies to sell their products.
