[Guest guest]

A nutritional supplement called DMAE (dimethyl amino-ethanol) is really good for this. It is available in capsules or a drink-mix powder.

A good multivitamin or B-compex should also be considered as well.

HI all,

 

My son Matan, 9 years old, has not been medically diagnosed as being

ADHD but his school has given us adn his teachers a Conners (sp?)

survey that we have filled out (both us, his parents, and his

teachers) and it seems to point to ADHD. I do not want to take him

to be diagnosed. I don't want to hear the doctor reccommend

Ritalin. A couple of months ago I started Matan on 6 Bach Flower

Remedies. It seemed to do the trick and he seemed calmer and more

focussed at school and at home. The problem now is that Matan is

forgetting to take his drops. He hasn't taken them in two weeks and

the teachers and I have seen the difference.

 

I am wondering if there is anything else that could help him. It

would need to be something that I would give hime mornings and

evenings so he would not have to remember to take it.

 

Thank you for any advice,

Peace

Morningstar

I buy the remedies from a health store and I put 2 drops of each in

a dropper bottle and top with mineral water.

[Guest guest]

Claire,

 

this is what transformed my ADD son.

He was later "diagnosed".

A big joke but that is another matter.

 

He is in college now and called

to beg me for another bottle.

 

I am not exagerating when I say he is

a different person when he gets it.

 

I will take the time now to write his story

out, again.

 

But first:

 

 

 

 

AFA, Foundational Food

 

What is AFA?

AFA is short for Aphanizomenon Flos Aquae,

which means invisible water flower.

 

It is an edible blue-green alga, growing wild in

Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon.

You may have heard of it under brand names like

Aquazon or SuperBlueGreen Algae

Simply "The Algae" to its many devoted fans.

 

Did you know that all life on earth started with

blue-green algae?

This is the very foundation of the food chain!

 

What can it do for you?

 

Eaters of AFA have reported:

 

*More energy

*Greater resistance to illness

*Better mood

*Better focus, helpful for ADHD

*Relief from food cravings

 

*Better skin and hair

*Improved blood sugar management

*Relief from allergy and asthma

*Relief from side effects of chemo"therapy"

*Relief from arthritic aches and pains

*Amazing feats of regeneration in cases

of degenerative disease like MS.

 

Please note: these are individual testimonials

and do not constitute a medical claim.

 

However, since the mid nineties various

scientific studies have been undertaken

to support and explain the anecdotal data.

 

More detail on these studies can be found

in the booklet "Primordial Food" by C. Drapeau.

To receive a copy send $5 by PayPal to

ien

I'll pay the shipping.

 

 

What's in it?

 

AFA is the world's most complete, most perfect food.

Best of all: the body recognizes it as FOOD.

Ask yourself: were you designed to absorb

ground-up rocks, vitamins extracted from Earth

knows what, and isolated amino acids that may be

in the wrong balance?

 

Interestingly, many of the proportions in AFA are

similar to those in human breast milk.

 

This is the case with the essential fatty acid profile.

AFA is a rich source of Omega 3 EFAs.

 

AFA is an excellent source of easily absorbed

amino acids, again in a balanced, bio-available

form.

In fact, the amino acid profile of AFA is in nearly

the same proportion required by humans!

 

Vitamins from A to Z

AFA is especially high in the total complex of

B vitamins, and beta carotenes.

B vitamins must be in the right balance, or one can

actually induce a shortage of one by ingesting

too much of another.

 

Minerals, and trace minerals

Did you know that the US senate was worried

about the lack of minerals in the food supply

way back in 1936?

What do you think happened since then?

 

Without minerals, vitamins are useless.

Trace minerals are essential for good health,

but are tricky to supplement with.

Again, it is easy to get the balance wrong.

 

AFA gets its mineral content from the rich

volcanic sediment of the lake bed.

The minerals are chelated and fully

bio-available.

 

PEA, the molecule of joy

AFA is a rich source of PhenylEthylAmine,

the same ingredient that makes chocolate

a feel-good substance.

 

PhycoCyanin, natural anti-inflammatory

The blue pigment is anti-oxidant and

anti-inflammatory. PhycoCyanin turns

out to be a natural cox2 inhibitor.

 

To sum up: You name it, it's in there.

 

There is more to AFA than just a bunch of

useful nutrients.

 

The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

 

AFA is a Gift from the Living Earth.

This energetic aspect is especially important

to people like Indigo children, who have often

benefited from AFA.

 

How does it work?

Experience and observation always come

before explanation, theory and proof.

We often know THAT something works

long before we understand HOW it works.

 

After all, folks knew that stuff falls down

long before Newton explained the laws of

gravity!

 

Research in this life-giving substance is

ongoing.

It looks like AFA may stimulate the mobilization

of adult bone marrow stem cells, the ultimate

regeneration system!

Read more on this here:

www.stemcellresearch.org/facts/Jensen_and_Drapeau.pdf

 

The real research takes place in your body.

Try some AFA from a good source, like Aquazon

from Amazon Herb Company, and

see for yourself if you too experience:

 

*More energy

 

*Greater resistance to illness

*Better mood

*Better focus, helpful for ADHD

*Relief from food cravings

 

*Better skin and hair

*Improved blood sugar management

*Relief from allergy and asthma

*Relief from side effects of chemo"therapy"

*Relief from arthritic aches and pains.

[Guest guest]

-Greetings,

I find that getting a child to remember to take Bach flowers is

tough. However can you send him to school with one of those little

bottles of water or juice? You could put his personal recipe in the

bottle and just tell him to drink his juice or water. Then you can

give it to him directly in the morning and evening.

 

Many people have had success with applying the remedies topically to

their wrists or throat (no dilution). If you look in on Matan after

he goes to sleep maybe you could apply his personal recipe that way

so he would have gotten it 4 times a day.

Good luck

Gail

Hi Gail and thank you for your reply. I guess I erroneously trusted

that he would remeber to take his drops and I sort of put it out of

my mind. I guess I need to make it another on of the things I need

to do

Thanks Ien, for all the incredible information. It sounds like

Matan won't be the only one taking AFA.

I think your son is too young to be in charge of taking his drops. You should make sure that he gets them according to some set schedule until he's about 12.

I know he's probably exceptionally smart and independent for his age but until he gets a little older and he starts having his own routine and control over his own movement and decisions, just give him the medicine so you can make sure he gets it.

Anything but Ritalin. Its a soul killer. I worked for the Administration for Children's Services in New York and 90% of children in my cases ended up being put on those medications without any consideration for how it will affect them later.

Ritalin is a massive hoax. In my sophomore year in high school i was given the

choice

of either taking it or being expelled and jailed for truancy, but not all in the

same

sentence :o/

 

I know politics is off topic, but Ritalin is about profits, not disease. It's

much, much

easier and more profitable putting children on an addictive sedative than it is

to

discipline them. Half the US prison population is Ritalin or a similar

medication!! :o/

Since we are taught " it's ADD " then we don't even try to teach or develop

self-control

which aggravates the problem. Taking this addictive drug makes you more easily

addicted to illegal drugs. One of the withdrawal symptoms of Ritalin is suicidal

tendencies btw.

 

There's no way I'd let anyone put my kid on it, and I'd sit my kid down and

explain to

him how hard he needs to develop self-control in the classroom so they don't try

force it on him. Shows you how powerful the drug industry has become in the

United

States.

[Guest guest]

-Hi Claire,

I hear you loud and clear - yet another thing to be responsible for.

I didnt ask how old Matan is but even adults forget to take their

Bach flowers. They work so well that people forget they had a reason

to take them in the first place. Thats why I proposed only making

him responsible for 1 treatment and making that one enjoyable so he

won't notice.

 

The post bedtime one on the wrists is great too. They don't have to

be awakened to do it.

Good luck with this

We had luck with our son giving him minerals. He wwas extremly

deficient . I had battled with the schools for 5 years. I told

them it was the herbal way or no way....He got bored easily. It was

the method in which he was taught. He's a hands on learner. Did

wonderful in Science last year, but is struggling this year. It's

all book work now. He has improved with age also. IF schools try

to force you to medicate, tell them if they will sign a notarized

affidavite that THEY will take full fincial responsibility if your

child needs rehab later, you will. They won't sign..LOL Good luck,

Here in Boulder, people take Ritalin at parties as a recreational drug. It is basically a legal form of cocaine.

In my sophomore year in high school i was given the choice of either taking it or being expelled and jailed for truancy, but not all in the same sentence :o/I know politics is off topic, but Ritalin is about profits, not disease. It's much, much easier and more profitable putting children on an addictive sedative than it is to discipline them. Half the US prison population is Ritalin or a similar medication!! :o/ Since we are taught "it's ADD" then we don't even try to teach or develop self-control which aggravates the problem. Taking this addictive drug makes you more easily addicted to illegal drugs. One of the withdrawal symptoms of Ritalin is suicidal tendencies btw.There's no way I'd let anyone put my kid on it, and I'd sit my kid down and explain to him how hard he needs to develop self-control in the classroom so they don't try force it on him. Shows you how powerful the drug industry has become in the United States.********************************************* WWW.PEACEFULMIND.COM Sponsors Alternative Answers-HEALING NATURALLY- this is the premise of HOLISTIC HEALTH.

Not that I am recomending medication, but my kid is on strattera

(sp?) and adderal. The adderal takes away her desire to eat

however. I'm going to look in to the Bach Flower stuff.

Thanks Essa,

I've made an appointment with a Naturopath for next week and I

thinkn we need to make drastic diet changes as well as give him some

alternative medicine. We'll see what the Naturopath says after she

sees him.

You should make sure that he gets them according to some set

Just so you know, strattera is the same thing as ritalin and

adderall was taken off the market in the 70's as a diet drug due to

liver damage. I would deffinitly try something else..........--- In

"They work so well that people forget

Haha!That is a frequent reason

why people fall off the wagon with any

health program!

 

They forget how miserable they

were before.

It is human nature to ignore the body untill

something breaks down, and to go right

back to ignoring it the moment

it stops actively hurting or malfunctioning.

 

There is usually a time lag.

People can get away with not using their

supplements for a little while.

 

Unfortunately, by the time they are back

to a miserable square one, they have forgotten

how good they felt when they were taking

their super foods!

Wow. I did not know that. I'll bring that up to her Dr as I try

other things.

Aquazon can be given in the morning

after breakfast, that does it for the day

for most people.

LOL! When my son declined his

prescription we joked that he should

have accepted it for the re-sale value.

What a way to help finance his education.

Both of my duaghters were on Ritalin, Adderal, Nortriptolyne,

Concerta for their Narcolepsy. I've found a wellness company and am

now using their vitamins and supplements. I've also changed my

cleaning products from toxic and carcigen based chemicals to natural

products. Both the girls are now off of the meds completely.

 

I'd be happy to share the info with you. Send me an e-mail at

leigh3nc Put this group in the subject line so I

don't delete it by accident. If I don't know you, I delete it.
