ADHD is increasing with up to 10% of children being diagnosed per a report by the National Center for Health Statistics. There are many natural approaches for successful treatment of both ADD and ADHD–and for both adults and children. Even simple diet changes can impart huge improvements in the ability to focus and maintain calm behavior. Huge offending “culprits” include refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, and high fructose corn syrup. Elimination of food sensitivities can also be the key. Supplements have also been used with great success and without the side effects of pharmaceutical approaches.
