  1. I would also like to learn about essential oils to help with anxiety and focus. It would be helpful to hear exact steps—where to put it, how much to try, etc. So often I read ‘try lavender’’ but then I have no idea how or when or where! Thanks! I’m looking forward to this webinar!

  2. I hear very conflicting information about blood tests for nutritional deficiencies. SpectraCell, for example, is repeatedly reported to be a sham. (We haven’t used them, I am just mentioning what I have read online from legit sources.) All the conflicting info has us confused. Can you recommend simple tests our peditrition can do to help figure out if our child is deficient in some way?

  3. How can I determine if my child has a food sensitivity that may be exaggerating ADHD? She is not officially diagnosed but I intuitively feel that she exhibits symptoms and they are more heightened at different times of the day or following different foods.

    1. We had our child tested for food allergies through a blood test, which confirmed our suspicion that she was very allergic to milk. Highly recommend you go that route and follow-up with an elimination diet. Note that we had a follow-up skin allergy test, which is preferred the doctors we spoke to, and came up negative on all food allergies. From my point of view the blood test measures actual antibodies that develop (somewhere in the body) and circulate in the blood due to an allergic reaction. This is the superior, gold-standard test, in my opinion. Whereas, the skin test is limited to testing one specific organ (the skin) and specifically looks to measure the surficial/visible reaction on the surface of the skin and may not capture sensitivities to other parts of the body.

      Other things to avoid are any heavily processed foods and food colors.

      1. Thank you. I have tried and tried to register, and it just keeps bringing me back to the informational page. I am glad to know I can listen to the recorded webinar.

      2. I am having the same issue. I want to know about essential oils as I have a 5 year old with attention issues and don’t want to medicate him this early in his life. However I want to help him so he doesn’t get labeled as a problem child.
