Guest guest Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Hi Heather, I hope this information is of some help to you. NATURAL SOLUTIONS Alternative (non-drug) cures for the student with " too much energy " abound. They work because they don't approach the problem from a primarily political point of view. Alternative methods focus on resolution of the problem; rather than finding excuses to prolong it, for ancillary and ulterior agendas. For hyperactivity, the most commonly effective holistic approach would be 1. water. Most kids are dehydrated, from the body having to deal with the gallons of soft drinks and dairy drinks the kids consume, as well as the copious tonnage of salty snackfoods and junkfood that are so prevalent. Replace soft drinks with 1-2 liters of water per day, and watch the chemical imbalances vaporize. (The Body's Many Cries for Water) Sounds simple, but it's definitely not easy. 2. diet: eliminate the sensitizing allergens: milk, cheese, ice cream, white sugar, white flour. soft drinks. These are non-foods; virtually devoid of nutritive value, empty, devitalizing 'foods of commerce.' (See the chapter on Allergies) In the body they have druglike, antigenic effects, and destroy the normal brain chemistry. Simontacci's new book well documents the chemical disruption of neurotransmitters by food and drugs: The Crazy Makers. So all this is not a theory. Try the 60-day test. No change, keep going. 3. exercise. According to the National Institutes of Health, only 4% of Americans exercise. Often physical education programs are the first to be trimmed by budget cutbacks. Many excuses, but children need an hour of vigorous exercise every day, especially if they are being criticized for something as ill-defined as hyperactivity. Their musculoskeletal systems are developing rapidly. Such growth is inhibited by inactivity, i.e., 'normal' behavior, like sitting immobile at a desk for eight hours. Try the 60-day test. The word is vigorous. 4. gross nerve blockage. Upper neck trauma from falls and accidents, or even from childbirth, may go uncorrected for years. Thousands of cases of " ADD, " as well as learning disorders, have probably been resolved employing this simple biomechanical corrective approach: spinal adjustment. Documentation? DCs rarely document anything. 5. A natural herbal remedy called Restores claims consistent success with hyperactives via neurotransmitter normalization. Moderate doses of the amino acid phenylalanine, available in any health food store, have also shown promising results with hyperactivity. 6.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 It has also been said that taking an Omega 3 fish oil supplement can help control ADD and anxiety. Make sure that it is a high quality oil preferable pharmasuetical grade. I can reccomend a good one. , " Caroline " <Alwaysnaturallygreat wrote: > > Hi Heather, > > I hope this information is of some help to you. > > NATURAL SOLUTIONS > > Alternative (non-drug) cures for the student with " too much > energy " abound.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Hi Heather, It looks like Caroline thinks like me! I agree wholeheartedly with her on the empty calories and junk food nix as well as the exercise and no TV. Of coarse, some of this is easier said than done.... We have to live in the real world! Have you thought of Kangen water? He may be having reactions to chlorine or something in your water and the Kangen water is purified as well as alkaline to turn the body back to the alkaline vessel it is supposed to be. People all over are raging about the results of Kangen water. Look at the testimonials at www.youwantit.us. Change your life today!
