[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cut out gluten and dairy and all processed foods.  Nothing in a box, can or bag, EVER!  It is hard to do at first, but works.  Also buy Nordic Naturals (DHA & EPA kids supplement sold at Whole Foods) and try to give lots of blueberries.  Take child to a naturopathic doctor. Medication is totally unnecessary in most cases.  ADHD is a food and/or environmental allergy.  Also get the naturopathic doctor to do a delayed allergen blood test (IgG food intolerance test) through Neuroscience Labs and cut out everything in the moderate and/or severe category when you get the results.  Follow these steps and you will have a new child trust me[/quote]

I tried this stuff--I tried it seriously and consistently to the satisfaction of a DAN doctor--and it didn't work for us. Of course, food/nutrition is a logical first step but it doesn't always work. We were very healthy eaters to begin with.

Meds aren't an option for us for medical reasons. I am also thinking about neurofeedback though reviews on it are mixed, so we haven't gone for it given the cost. So far what works best for is 1) having a very structured and predictable routine throughout the day 2) lots of exercise 3) lots of organizational support and coaching from me. Child is doing very well in elementary, happy and getting top grades. [/quote]
