Linkage,
I certainly do NOT propose "sitting around doing nothing".
There is NO conclusive evidence that alleged
ADD kids can be diagnosed through MRI's....there is tons of eveidence however that show the negative effects of too much TV, Video Games, Palm Pilots. Internet Use..etc...among the young.This combined with little or no exercise, and poor dietary habits go along way in explaining
some, not al, but some of these diagnoses.Proper Herbal therapies under the care of a qualified health practioner..has helped thousand of kids without exposing them to the lon and short term effects of Ritalin and Adderal.
I am NOT advocating a total drug-free approach
I am trying to say there are BETTER drugs available than the ones mentioned above.
My other posts on the Alternatives to Ritalin
give several web links for those drugs.Buckeye Fan
