Would you have ever guessed that Albert Einstein had problems in school? His speech
was delayed and his teacher’s actually thought he was borderline retarded. He eventually
left school because he was unable to learn the way he was being taught. If he were
alive today he would be labeled ADHD and prescribed a psychiatric drug like Ritalin
or Adderall.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD we invite you to explore
other options. Our website has information that will help you to determine if our
drug free approach, using Neurotransmitter Therapy, is your best option for treatment.
What is ADHD/ADD and What Choices do
you have?
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD)
are the most commonly diagnosed childhood disorders and the number of those displaying
the common ADHD/ADD symptoms of distractibility, impulsiveness and hyperactivity
are rising dramatically.
It is conservatively estimated that 20% of school-age children have ADHD. Additionally,
an estimated 8 million adults have been diagnosed with ADHD/ADD and the adult population
is growing to be approximately three times the size of the number of children affected
with this disorder.
Both genetic and environmental elements can cause ADHD/ADD symptoms. These factors can affect brain chemistry by creating imbalances and neuro-toxicity. Influences
such as diet and nutrition, prescription drugs, the home/work environment, quality
of relationships, and teaching methods can also have a major impact on an individual’s
success.
The prescription drugs used to treat these disorders often results in serious side
effects and sometimes-severe complications. Possible side effects include hallucinations,
decreased appetite, stunted growth, insomnia, increased irritability, behavior disturbances,
thought disorders, psychotic episodes, anxiety, restlessness, seizures, suicide,
impaired judgment, agitation, amnesia, confusion, apathy, depersonalization, hostility,
paranoid reactions, personality disorders, and delusions. Cardiac side effects include
hemorrhage, hypertension, angina, arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, heart attack,
rapid heart beat, arterial fibrillation, cerebral embolism, and heart block just
to name a few.
Adults have an advantage in this situation with regard to taking drugs because they
can refuse. Children on the other hand, are depending on and trusting their parents
to provide the best treatment for them while parents are being influenced by advertisers
and drug companies to buy and use questionable prescription medications. This is
too often to the detriment of their child.
Rather than rely on powerful psychiatric drugs, risking the negative side effects
that surround them, we encourage you to experience the medically proven program offered by Dr. Ross Stewart and the NeuroWellness staff. Our treatment
programs include Neurotransmitter
Therapy, plus Nutrition and Dietary Modifications, which are designed to
eliminate symptoms by identifying and erasing the underlying causes of the existing
condition. The result will be a positive impact on the health and well being of
both you and your child.
ADHD and ADD are conditions that can be easily corrected without drugs, enabling
you to live a fulfilled and successful life.
