6000000 school children are being administered Ritalin and other psychiatric drugs. ADHD is a catch all label and creativity should not be medicated. Dr. Tyler Woods of Mindhance Wellness introduces natural treatments.

I am not diagnosed with ADD or ADHD or perscribed to Adderall, but I’m pretty sure I have it. My mom believes in all the natural health stuff, and I’m 15 so she wont let me get a perscription for it. But I occasionally take it to study for finals etc. This has never happened before except maybe once or twice in my life until recently. Three days ago I took 3 10mg instant release Adderalls. It was visibly in my system for 24 hours as I was still feeling the effects the next day. But yesterday and today my left eyelid has been twitching constanly, like every 5-10 minutes. It’s getting very annoying and I was wondering if it had to do with the Adderall or if it is still in my system, or if there is any other reason my eye would suddenly start twitching the last couple days. Thanks for all your help!

My 12 year old son had to go to the dr. to be retest on his adhd. and they done a urine test and blood work. they called me and told me that he had a very high level of protein in his urine and that I was to come by and pick up another urine cup and collect some urine from him frist thing in the morning before he gets out of bed and bring it back to them as soon as possible. So they could do some test on it. If anyway possible I would like to know what to expect out of this so any answers I can get at this point will be wounderful. thank to you all for the answers.

Sometimes I feel like I’m in a very surreal state of mind, and when I am I can’t focus on anything and even trying makes it harder. Not just on school, either. On anything– conversations, sports, and of course homework, etc.

Anyways, I went to my doctor today to talk to him about maybe starting my ADHD medication again to fix this problem. I had been taking some sort of medication for ADHD from when I was five until I was thirteen. I’m seventeen now.

The issue of anxiety was brought up, he had me take a test, and apparently I have some "pretty severe" (says the doctor) anxiety issues. So, he decided to put me on anxiety medication, instead of ADHD meds. He said that he didn’t want to start me on two meds at once but if all goes well, and I still have the focusing problem, he’ll put me on the ADHD medicine later.

When I asked if maybe the anxiety meds would help me focus better, he shrugged it off and said maybe, which says to me "probably not".

Could it?
Someone Amazing, I know for a fact my lack of focus is ADHD related. Natural remedies would do absolutely nothing.

Part 2 (not anywhere else on YouTube, split due to its length) shows the effects of MSG (E621) on the brain and on the nervous system. Consumption of MSG during the first few years of life causes brain damage due to improper ‘wiring’ of the brain. Trade names of MSG include Ajinomoto, Vetsin and Accent. MSG is ‘hidden’ in many other names, such as yeast extract, hydrolised protein and flavoring. www.truthinlabeling.org MSG makes your food taste better but it’s NOT safe! The harmful effects of MSG include ADHD, autism, obesity, growth disruptions, learning and behavioral problems, hormonal imbalance, epilepsy, insomnia, damage to the retina, heart problems, cancer, etc. Many problems don’t become obvious until puberty. This is caused by poor functioning of the hormones due to exposure to MSG in the first few years of life. MSG affects circulation, heart, stomach, intestines, eyes, muscles, nerves, respiration, skin, etc. Losing weight is nearly impossible if you consume MSG as it increases appetite! The consumption of MSG, in addition to the consumption of trans fats and artificial sweeteners, is the main cause of the present obesity epidemic. www.naturalnews.com The flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate or MSG is used in thousands of savory food products such as sauces, snacks, flavored potato chips/crisps, soups, meats, fast food and most chinese food. Governmental agencies such as the FDA (US Food & Drug Administration) insist that flavor enhancers are safe. But research …
