ADD/ADHD: SMART SOLUTIONS

A Dietary Approach to Fighting Children's Behavioral and Learning

Problems:

The Feingold Association of the United States

SYNOPSIS

 

Between three and seven percent of American children and adolescents

currently take psychiatric drugs for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity

Disorder (ADHD). However, many of these children may only need a

change in

diet, according to Jane Hersey, National Director of the Feingold

Association of the United States. The Feingold Association1s research-

backed

dietary program is featured in ADD/ADHD: Smart Solutions, a new 45-

minute

video being released by Associated Producers, Inc.

 

3Hyperactivity and attention span problems can be triggered by

synthetic

food additives, many of which are derived from petroleum (crude

oil),2 says

Hersey. 3The worst offenders are artificial colors, artificial

flavors, and

the synthetic preservatives BHA, BHT and TBHQ, all of which are

eliminated

in the Feingold Program. Many of these chemicals are so powerful that

it

only takes a small amount to set off a sensitive child.2

 

ADD/ADHD: Smart Solutions features interviews with three families who

were

helped by the Feingold Program. One couple describes how their son

was asked

to leave school because of his wild behavior. The mother explains

that a

combination of the Feingold Diet and vitamin supplements was so

successful

in bringing her son1s activity level to a normal range that she now

often

receives compliments on his good behavior. The father advises viewers

considering the Feingold Program, 3You have nothing to lose but the

chaos.2

 

In ADD/ADHD: Smart Solutions, Hersey gives examples of processed

foods that

can cause problems and natural alternatives that are readily

available. She

also demonstrates how to create colorful treats that children can

appreciate

without using food dyes. For example, she suggests serving white

cookies on

a red plate, instead of red cookies on a white plate, and using

colored

glasses or natural fruit juices, instead of synthetically dyed

drinks. 3So,

with just a little bit of creativity, you can still have colorful

things for

children, and they don1t have to eat petrochemicals,2 she says.

 

Dr. Arnold Brenner, Chief of Pediatrics at Northwest Hospital and a

staff

member at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, explains how he once set out to

disprove the effectiveness of the Feingold Diet by setting up a study

of

hyperactive children, many of whom had not responded to any other

treatment.

According to Dr. Brenner, so many children improved dramatically on

the diet

that he became convinced of its validity. 3I knew [Dr. Feingold] was

dead

right,2 he says. He discusses several other studies that had similar

results.

 

Dr. Brenner also points out that most pediatricians receive very

little

formal training in nutrition at medical school, which sometimes

results in

their being ignorant about the role of diet in ADHD. 3The professors

are not

really talking about this. The pharmaceuticals are not talking about

it.

This may be the first time that [they1ve] heard of it.2

 

ADD/ADHD: Smart Solutions, approximately 45 minutes long, is

accompanied by

a Healthy Resource Guide which provides contact information for a

variety of

organizations that help families of children with learning and

behavioral

problems.

 

 

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

 

This one-hour video, presented by Jane Hersey, noted lecturer, author

and

National Director of the Feingold Association, offers parents a

wonderful

and safe possible alternative to get even the most difficult child

back on

track.

 

Hersey, in a light yet engaging manner, gives parents all of the tools

necessary to make a comfortable transition towards improved behavior.

Though

the scientifically documented Feingold approach isn't guaranteed to

work for

everyone, thousands of parents have seen it produce positive, even

'miraculous' results in their children. And the best part is -- it's

all

natural and essentially free. There are no doctors to visit - no

prescriptions to buy. It's all about the foods we give our children

and

Hersey gives parents plenty of options - including ones so that

children

won't feel left out when dessert is served.

 

This program is a MUST SEE for any parent - even those with well-

behaved

children.
