A mix of alternatives

Hello,

My son is 9 and ADHD. I have a lot to deal with him that I'm already stresses out for the fast approaching school year.I can let you know all that I have read and done about Natural remedies for ADHD. The thing that has had more positive impact on him is going gluten free. He was checked thru a blood worked and he is very intolerant to gluten and eggs. When we changed his diet two years ago,even his school teacher asked us what were doing at home because he was more attentive at school. He takes on a daily basis Cod liver oil. Zinc and magnesium. Multivitamins high on B12 and a breakfast with at least 18 grms. of protein. His diet is low in sugars and processed foods. We had also tried homeopathy and neurofeedback and we are still on the quest trying to find the right help for him. Our last resource are meds, but if he need to take them to help him soar we'll get him the meds. I hope this info was helpful.

Wishing you success during this year!

ANA

Treatments

I have tried three or four medications before I found the right one [and right dose]... in addition daily Fish Oil [also Flax Oil] is supposed to help because of the lack of Omega fats in the brain. [also supposed to help with Bipolar disorder]. I use this in addition to Adderall

Anyway, if you don't want to try medication... you should check out the Feingold Diet. Its pricey for the materials but is legendary and said to work for 80% of the people who try it. ... works kinda similar.

Lots of protein in the morning and afternoon... no or very few carbs until later in the day.

Hope this helps... good luck!
