Drug-free Choices for ADD ADHD

Have you ever heard a good answer for what causes ADD or ADHD? Probably not. Most people here in Los Angeles get their information from the drug manufacturers, who want you to believe their sales pitch. Most of the time you will hear that the cause of ADD is unknown. Sometimes you hear circular reasoning nonsense like "the cause of A.D.D. is from a learning disorder." Well, that's just like saying the cause of decreased attention is a decreased ability to pay attention: a worthless statement.

So now your child, or you, are faced with a misdiagnosis such as "learning disorder," or a label such as "ADD" or "ADHD." What can you do? Would you like some answers about ADD that don't come from the biased drug manufacturers and their conflict of interest in treating ADD or ADHD? Do you want to know what causes ADD or ADHD? Are you curious to know if there are any natural cures? You might have distrust of the people who tell you that you or your child must start drug therapy right away. Their opinion is that psychoactive drugs are the only way to stop your child's symptoms, or yours, which we know is not true. What are the drug-free alternatives? Can you cure ADD without medicines? If it is your child, we can agree that something is not fully optimal with your child, but that's very different than misdiagnosing and mislabeling your child. The misdiagnosis of childhood "ADD" or adult ADD is not benign. The causes of "ADD" will not be addressed when it is mislabeled.

Did you know that there are still no physio-logical tests that can prove the existence of this so-called "learning disorder?" What if the whole labeling and "diagnosis" of ADD and ADHD is bogus and unscientific? Here's a Fact: presently, there is no physical test to prove this condition is a problem caused by the brain. Therefore, there cannot be an objective conclusion, based in objective testing, that there is something wrong with your child's brain (or yours). Yet it is precisely this faulty assumption about your child's brain (or yours-in adult ADD) which dictates the use of the dangerous drugs they want to force on your child, or convince you to take for adult ADD.

What about the safety of psychoactive drugs? Are you satisfied with the crafty words of the drug manufacturers themselves? You hesitate to start medicating your child because you know the dangeros safety record of psychoactive drugs in adults. The same goes for children.

Children mislabeled with "attention deficit disorder" or "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder" will be treated with destructive medications by doctors who believe that your child's body is incapable of healing, repairing, and coping on its own. This false belief system of doctors and uneducated educators is the sole reason they think your child needs medications. They don't know anything about functional medicine or nutrition. You need a drug-free alternative opinion.

Other than the alternatives, the standard care of kids with "ADD" or "ADHD" is a dead-end street of psychoactive drugs for the rest of your child's life. Just because you are familiar with the idea of lifetime medication for other types of conditions does not mean that is is safe for your child. More than 25% of Kids and Teens in the U.S. Take Prescriptions on a Regular Basis! Does the familiar present no risk? Not in this case!

Children mislabeled with "attention deficit disorder" or "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder" need safe alternatives; drug-free alternatives; ADD cures without destructive medicines. Adults as well.

Duration of ADD treatment: You know that Medicine is not a perfect science, and that all conventinal medicines have side effects. How long will it take before your child (or you) experiences those side effects from ADD or ADHD medicines? When undesirable effects become an issue, switching to differently named drugs in the same drug category will not be a viable plan, because you already know that more of the same just won't work.

Cures for ADD or ADHD must be based on a physical examination, not just interviews with children or adults, and prescriptive guessing–by well intentioned people. The exam must be focused on the causes of ADD, or the causes of ADHD, revealing the physiology and functions of your, or your child's body that are sub-optimal. This is known as the functional medicine approach. Conventional approaches, on the contrary, will ultimately fail because conventional test results (like thyroid blood tests) will not be remarkable until much later, when disease has already had plenty of time to develope. Who wants to wait for that?

When it comes to functional medicine and complementary or alternative care, you should never take the advice of someone who is not immersed in, and does not fully understand a functional medicine, complementary and alternative practice. Without telling you not to listen to your conventional doctor on things for which he/she is not an expert (because he/she doesn't practice that way), you should understand that you need to consult with a different kind of doctor– a holistic doctor– to get the answers you need. Otherwise, you will get more of the same. For this matter, taking the advice of a conventionally trained physician can be confusing and misleading. Sometimes you just have to go with your own gut feelings: that the best answer for children with "ADD," "ADHD," or adult ADD is a natural approach.

So now it is time to make your decision. You can help yourself, or your child without using ADD medicines. You know you really need a drug-free alternative to help your child.
