Here's an irritation of mine that really concerns me about the medical community and Big Pharma and about children's ADHD treatments. When are parents going to take a stand and boldly resist the practice? Most doctor's decision to treat this ailment is usually to prescribe dangerous drugs such as Ritilan. This drug can cause some very dangerous and possible side effects.
Millions of children have been medicated with this dangerous drug which has pushed some of them into psychosis and even suicide. It is the same type of psychotic drug that caused Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris to carryout the Columbine massacre on April 20,1999 in Jefferson Country, Colorado. Sadly they killed 13 students and wounded another 25.
Dr. Lendon H. Smith earned his MD degree and began the practice of medicine almost 55years ago. He has fought for children's health and nutrition issues for over three decades. He was among the first to caution against sugar, white flower and junk food known to contribute to sickness, hyperactivity, obesity, allergies and many illness in children and adults.
When he came more aware of this type illness he began to treat children with oral doses of 500 mg magnesium and 1000 mg calcium daily. This treatment took about three weeks to show some positive results. What happened was 80% of those on Ritalin or dextromophetamine were able to get off these and any other stimulants they were on. It did not work on all of them. He said eventually he had them take Vitamin B6 if dream recall was poor and also take essential fatty acids if they had dry skin or a history of eczema.
Here are the facts, no prescription drug company medication is going to cure illness of any kind. Natural medicine healing is the answer for solving a medical problem. People need to realize that their medical concerns will only be solved with these kinds of methods.
It has been found that ADHD is actually a syndrome due to the screening devise of the brain. Since it was declared a disease the medical community and Big Pharma have been compensated for treating it. They have reaped huge profits on these drugs and at the same time jeopardized the health of millions of children.
Dr. Smith believes that ADHD is really a disorder and not a bona fide disease. It’s a collection of symptoms and signs that seems to get in the way of a child being educated. What is really a shame is a teacher or school administration is usually the one who suggests that the child see a doctor for the behavior problem, whom they know will put a kid on Ritalin or a similar drug.
Dr. Smith goes on to say when he became more familiar with nutrition, he found that if a stimulant had a calming effect like some ADHD drug treatments it meant that the child did not have enough norepinepbrine (a stimulant) in his limbic system. He realized it and knew a child could be helped with a good diet and some healthy nutrients to shore up the enzymes in his brain that make that neurotransmitter.
I am sorry to say that I had an experience in my own family that involved an ADHD diagnosis of my grandson. At this time I tried to convince my daughter that she needed to be aware of an alternative cure for her son instead of what the doctor had prescribed..
I had even put together a folder describing the ADHD disease in detail and the recommended treatment methods to solve it. However she broke down and cried and said it was none of my business. As you might imagine I was emotionally shaken from that experience and never brought it up again.
My grandson is now about two to three years older since that incident. I don't know if he is still being treated for ADHD but when we made a recent visit to their house it seemed his condition had mellowed somewhat. His behavior is not quite as dramatic as it was before.
Today on TV there was a story about a child that had been put in a room they called the "time out room"at school. He was locked in there because of his behavior in the classroom for about four hours by a teacher's aide and they forgot about him until someone else realized he was there and released him.
Now I know nothing else about this incident or whether it was ADHD related but it sure sounds like it might have been. The mother did say she had had disciplinary problems with him before. The boy was visibly distraught because he had another incident in the past that involved a similar encounter.
Here's something else that greatly concerns me too. Government regulations have contributed to incidents like this. The law that has been enforced concerning child abuse is the one I'm referring to. While I don't condone child abuse I believe the law goes too far in what they believe is defined as actual abuse.
Not only do kids take advantage of this law when they believed they are being abused but sometimes even other family members and acquaintances get involved also. Because of the fear parents have about being arrested or accused they refrain from disciplining their children which them creates additional problems. There have been parents who challenge this law and I applaud them for it.
Parents also have the responsibility of seeing that their children have healthy diets too. They need to buy the healthiest of foods that are usually found in organic supermarkets. They must realize that fast food ingredients are also damaging to their health and their children's health too. Learning the nutritional value of food can be a real asset for managing family health conditions.
It could play a huge role in the abilities to cure illness like (so called) diseases such as ADHD and other child and adult diseases. Why not start now giving that some serious thought and begin setting up a healthy regimen every day for all your family functions?
