Fish Oil is one. I have an article about ADHD and Fish Oil. If you would like me to send it to you, please contact me at ____@____.com biggest one that triggers them to be hyper is red dye. I try and watch everything my son eats. You would be amazed on what contains red dye in the ingredients.

many people swear by this, as it's been around a long time: http://www.feingold.org/

also essential fats like flax seed oil & fish oil in the diet

try cutting out all soy proteins & milk proteins- hidden as well- look at ingredients for hidden dairy such as casein,whey, etc
and wheat and gluten

Hi A.,

Just wondering if you are referring to an adult or a child??

If you are referring to a child, there are many small behavioral and environmental changes that can be made to address symptoms of hyperactivity, impulsiveness, and inattention.
There is a lot of literature that reports many of the daily products (household cleaners, soaps, etc) we use have harsh chemicals that are linked to cancer, ADD, and many other health problems. There is a site www.unsafehomes.com that provides more info on this.

Hope this little bit helps!!

I have heard about Essential Fatty Acids in the diet are a good thing. Also there is an herbal supplement at a health food store called "Calm Child" That a friend of mine swears by, she has 2 sons with ADHD. She does that in addition to a vitamin called DHA. Good luck!

Also another thing about ADHD, make sure to give your child lots of time outside if they are on the hyper side and consistancy consistancy consistancy! Good luck!

Hi A.,

I can see that you recieved many concerned and helpful recommendations to help with your sons ADHD.

You probably already know that deficiencies and imbalances in Omega 3/Omega 6 are implicated in rampant increases in ADHD and ADD in today's young population. It is vital to correct this which will in turn dramatically improve your sons and your whole families health. NOT ALL OMEGA's ARE CREATED EQUAL...please know WHAT you and your family are consuming.

Yes, you can get Omega 3 at COSTCO cheap, but you are buying more toxicity to injest. There is NO over the counter Omega product that can come close to WINOmega 3 which is pharmaceutical grade and is manufactured by 1 of the only 2 manufacturers that make pharmaceutical grade. It is the same product that requires a doctor's prescription, but WINOmega 3 is 1/3 of the price of Omicor. WINOmega 3 Complex is 88% pure vs 90% pure (prescription). It is the SAME product, same manufacturer but has to marketing as 88% pure for legal reasons.

Understand that highest over the counter Omega 3 products available today are max 67% from Whole Foods or other natural alternative vendors.

Give your child WINOmega and watch him change dramatically... guaranteed or your money back.

I am happy to talk with you further free of charge.

Go to www.pinnaclewellness.com to review, read the research and ORDER the product. You can contact me by phone or email from the website.

Doctors today provide this product to their patients at affordable prices without having to prescribe the expensive prescription identical product. Please let your pediatrician know about this. I am happy to contact your pediatrician and meet with him/her to educate. We as moms, need to spread the word to help other families with the same issues.

I have heard great things about a nutritional system that involves omega fatty acids and pharmacuetical grade protein shakes that include all the nutrients the body requires in one meal. (Especially the minerals we need for good health and healthy brain chemistry. Most of us are deficient in minerals) My friend has great results with her son and couldn't believe the teacher conference after her son started using this. She had braced herself for the usual complaints but the teacher was singing his praises! Kids seem to like the shakes. I now give them to my son too for good health. He actually asks me for them! If you would like to know more email me at ____@____.com. I am glad you are seeking out natural ways to help your son. I also agree with the other responses that include watching the chemicals in food and household products. We are introduced to thousands of chemicals that the body has to process and this did not used to be the case. Avoid process foods and high corn fructose syrup too. Good luck with your little guy.

Hi there,

I do know of something which helps kids with ADD and ADHD. It's called Monavie. It's a nutriotional juice blend made up of 19 different fruits. It helps with other things (heartburn, chron's disease, diabetes, lowers cholesteral, helps with joint pain, arthritis and lots more), but speaking from personal experience, it's helped my friend's son with ADHD. It calms him and helps him focus, which in turn helps him listen and be better all around. I don't want to seem like I'm selling the product, but my family feels strongly about this juice, we all take it for several reasons. I'd be happy to send you a packet or email you information on it if you like. It really is good. It's pricey but if you sign up you can get it cheaper than if you buy it from someone.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

p.s. I love this stuff, plus I'm making money it, it can't be any better. Seriously.
