ADD or ADHD?  Is your child hyperactive or inattentive?  Is your teenager disorganized, unfocused and having trouble with schoolwork?  Are you an adult who has lived with ADD or ADHD all of your life?  Do you or a loved one need help to achieve focus and success in life?

This source recommends a natural approach based on balanced nutrition!  Why?  Because ADD and ADHD are often the result of natural biochemical imbalances, which respond better to dietary support than to prescription drugs.

Our nutritional intake directly affects our biochemical state, which is reflected externally as our feelings, emotions, energy level, mental functioning, problem solving skills, social interactions, and so forth.

Recent scientific studies on Attention Deficit Disorder, both with and without hyperactivity, are converging on a single theory on the cause of ADD.  Brain scans on ADD / ADHD individuals of all ages have indicated that certain areas of the brain are underperforming their intended biological functions.

Until now, the prescription drugs commonly offered for ADD / ADHD have only treated the outward symptoms of ADD / ADHD without addressing the root cause of the condition.  Ritalin, Dexedrine and similar prescription drugs act in the brain to increase the speed of the underperforming parts of the brain, resulting in the desired behaviors of calmness and focus.  This results in the appearance of more normal behavior in many ADD / ADHD sufferers, but these drugs do not act to improve brain functioning nor to improve the balance of the body's biochemical systems.

Prescription drugs merely mask the ADD / ADHD symptoms -- they do not resolve the underlying medical issue which causes the ADD / ADHD.  Ask your family doctor and he will tell you this is true.  These drugs are not intended to cure ADD / ADHD, but only to mask the symptoms so that life is livable for the individual, the family and the school.

In addition, with the use of prescription drugs, you must consider the significant side effects that you may encounter, including sleeplessness, growth delay (in children), poor appetite, development of facial or other motor tics, and the potential for drug dependence.

"ADD to C3 Kids" will show you the extensive research that has been completed regarding diet and ADD / ADHD, and why it's safe, effective and preferable to use a nutritional approach to manage your child's, your teen's, or your own ADD / ADHD.

Your family, your school representatives, and your doctors will all recommend only one approach to managing your child's or teen's (or your own) ADD / ADHD, and that approach will most likely be the use of powerful and potentially harmful prescription drugs.

You, as a parent or for yourself, will need to choose between educating yourself on the options available or on letting others make your family's most important decisions for you.  For yourself or your children, take this time to learn more about ADD / ADHD, evaluate the options available, and make your own decision on which course to choose.

Fortunately, each of the vitamins, minerals and dietary supplements which have been correlated with improvements in the behavior, focus or learning skills of ADD / ADHD children, teens, and adults are also completely natural substances which our bodies already require for good health.
