Big Pharma Bribes Doctors to Hook Your Kids on Drugs
For decades, the majority of American doctors, mental health professionals, the media, and the general public have yielded to the disseminations of Harvard psychiatrist Joseph Biedeman who successfully evangelized for more children -- and younger children -- to be medicated with powerful psychiatric drugs. The blowback from ADHD drugs is reported in the current July 2009 Scientific American Mind article "Do ADHD Drugs Take a Toll on the Brain?" a comprehensive report of the long-term dangers of ADHD drugs such as Ritalin, Concerta, Adderall, and Vyvanse. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimated in 2005 that 9% of boys and 4% of girls in the U.S. were taking ADHD stimulant medications; and according to a 2007 study, ADHD-drug prescriptions rose by almost 12 percent a year between 2000 and 2005. 

ADHD drugs are either the "amphetamine-like" methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin and Concerta) or actual amphetamines (e.g., Adderall and Vyvanse), so it should not be surprising that long-term use is associated with many hazards. The current Scientific American Mind piece, authored by Edmund S. Higgins, clinical associate professor of family medicine and psychiatry at the Medical University of South Carolina states, "Methylphenidate has a chemical structure similar to that of cocaine and acts on the brain in a very similar way." In February 2009, neuroscientists at the Rockefeller University reported cocaine-like structural and chemical alterations in the brains of mice given methylphenidate.

Dr. Fred Baughman - " In the area of child psychiatric drugs, the main focus has been the recently commenced FDA hearings, which pertain to reports of death, strokes and heart attacks in children and adults. The first report concerning Adderall came out about a year ago. Adderall is the number one ADHD drug, and that report dealt with 12 or so individuals that were said to have had strokes, if you can imagine a stroke occurring in a young child. Some were sudden deaths and others were heart complications, and a total of 20 to 30 such reports lead Health Canada to take Adderall off the market." Dr. Baughman was an adult and child neurologist in private practice for 35 years more...

Ritalin: Legally Sanctioned "Speed"
by Julian Whitaker M.D.

Ritalin is the number one prescription drug for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This drug has such tremendous potential for abuse that it is classified as a controlled substance by the Drug Enforcement Agency. Ritalin is an amphetamine (in street jargon, "speed") with a lengthy list of side effects, including nervousness, insomnia, nausea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dizziness, palpitations, headaches, irregular heart rhythms, and psychic dependence — in short, addiction. 

In fact, Ritalin's appeal to drug users and its potential for abuse are so high that US House Judiciary Chair Henry Hyde (R-IL) recently filed a request with the General Accounting Office (GAO) to conduct an investigation of Ritalin abuse in public schools. In addition, class action lawsuits have been filed in Texas, California and New Jersey charging Swiss pharmaceutical giant Novartis, maker of Ritalin, with conspiracy to create the psychiatric disorder known as ADHD in order to fuel the market for their product. 

New But Unimproved 
The latest version of methylphenidate is an extended-released tablet that will be the most expensive prescription drug on the ADHD market. The once-a-day drug, called Concerta, was launched with great fanfare just in time for the new school year, with a team of 515 sales reps targeting pediatricians, family practitioners, psychiatrists, neurologists, and family practitioners around the country. Though promoters of the drug say it will help eliminate the embarrassment experienced by children who have to take medication at school, the drug will do nothing to eliminate the dangers of methylphenidate. In clinical studies, side effects of Concerta were virtually identical to those of Ritalin. 

There are natural alternatives to both Ritalin and Concerta, but you're not likely to hear about them from most conventional doctors. And if the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has its way, you won't be able to find these products in health food stores, either. 

 

Dr. Rob Robertson, MD -  "I believe Transfer Factor is, without a doubt, the greatest discovery of the century in supporting and modulating the immune system. I believe a strengthened immune system will be the primary way to stay well in the future. This nutrient can affect the immune system like nothing else can. I sincerely believe everyone needs to consume this product. There is no other product in a nutritional substance, nor a drug, that has this kind of power and ability to affect our immune system. With the increase of killer viruses, mutated germs, super-resistant germs, and food contaminations, our only hope and defense, must lie within our own immune system." Dr. Robertson received his medical degree from the University of Louisville School of Medicine in 1974. He served as the Director of Emergency Services at Western Baptist Hospital in Paducah, KY.

Glutathione and ADHD Children
The effect of low Glutathione levels in children suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Redox Rep. 2006;11(4):163-72. Department of Medical Chemistry, Biochemistry and Clinical Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University, Bratislava, Slovak Republic. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) belongs to the neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by impulsivity, distractibility and hyperactivity. In the pathogenesis of ADHD genetic and non-genetic factors play an important role. It is assumed that one of non-genetic factors could be oxidative stress. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study investigated the influence of intercellular reduced Glutathione and oxidized Glutathione in children suffering from ADHD and total antioxidant status (TAS). This is the first investigation of the redox Glutathione state in relation to ADHD.

RESULTS: One month of Glutathione administration caused a significant decrease in oxidized Glutathione and a highly significant increase in Glutathione levels as well as improvement of Glutathione/oxidized Glutathione ratio in comparison to a group of patients taking a placebo. TAS in children with ADHD was decreased in comparison with reference values. Glutathione administration normalized the TAS of ADHD children in this study. 

Dr. Jimmy Gutman, MD  - "Clinical evidence links low glutathione levels to the most common illnesses of our time as well as newly emerging diseases. Glutathione levels diminish as we age and many diseases normally associated with aging have been linked to glutathione deficiency."

Glutathione is a master antioxidant, an important line of defense against diseases, toxins, viruses, pollutants, radiation and oxidative stress. Low glutathione levels are linked to diseases such as Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, AIDS, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Atherosclerosis, pregnancy complications, male infertility and Cataracts. A Glutathione deficiency can cause a lack of coordination, mental disorders, tremors, and difficulty maintaining balance. Glutathione is continuously defending our body against attacks from disease, toxins, poisons, viruses, pollutants, radiation and oxidative stress. Without Glutathione our liver would soon become overwhelmed with the accumulation of toxins, resulting in organ failure and death. click here to learn more....

Robert O. Young D.Sc., Ph.D - "In the last ten years, over 25,000 medical articles about this substance have been published, and the scientific understanding of glutathione is gradually becoming common knowledge. Each and every cell in the body is responsible for its own supply of glutathione and must have the necessary raw materals in order to produce it. Glutathione is always in great demand and is rapidly consumed when we experience any sort of emotional or physical stress, fatigue and even moderate exercise."

TeenScreen, A Front Group for the Psycho-Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex is a very controversial so-called "diagnostic psychiatric service" aka suicide survey; done on children who are then referred to psychiatric treatment. The evidence suggests that the objective of the psychiatrists who designed TeenScreen is to place children so selected on psychotropic drugs. "It's just a way to put more people on prescription drugs," said Marcia Angell, a medical ethics lecturer at Harvard Medical School and author of "The Truth About Drug Companies." She said such programs will boost the sale of antidepressants even after the FDA in September ordered a "black box" label warning that the pills might spur suicidal thoughts or actions in minors. (The New York Post, December 5, 2004)

The American Heart Association Alert for ADD/ADHD Children  The American Heart Association issued a recommendation for all children currently taking or diagnosed to begin taking prescription ADD/ADHD medication to receive a thorough cardiovascular screening. This warning follows last year's FDA ordinance to ADD/ADHD drug manufacturers to include warning labels on drugs regarding the increased risk for cardiac complications among those with underlying heart conditions, as prescription ADD/ADHD stimulants raise both heart rate and blood pressure. learn more

Do Antidepressants Cause Violence and Suicide?

Psychiatric drugs cause major changes in brain chemistry and in behavior. International drug regulators warn that the drugs we are doling out to kids can cause mania, psychosis, depersonalization, suicidal and even homicidal ideation. If we take a look at the school shooters that were under the influence of these drugs, you have to wonder why there hasn’t been a federal investigation into the correlation between drugs documented to cause violence and suicide and kids taking them who then became violent and suicidal. If even a handful of these school shooters were found to be taking PCP or smoking crack we would have headline news announcing a causal relationship between illicit drug use and acts of violence. But because these kids are taking legal drugs, prescribed by a psychiatrist for an alleged mental disorder, something we use to refer to as “childhood,” the powers that be don’t think it merits an investigation. Well we are all aware of how much Pharma spends on lobbying efforts. Regarding corporate media I would venture a guess that the reason they haven’t taken on the issue is simple: Big Pharma is now one of, if not the largest, advertisers in the United States, with $5 billion a year spent on direct to consumer advertising. Read more and watch the video...

Julian Whitaker, M.D., believes there is a direct link between the violent shootings and the increased and indiscriminate use of popular antidepressant drugs. Dr. Whitaker points out that many of the gun-related massacres that have made the headlines over the past decade have a common thread: they were perpetrated by people taking Prozac, Zoloft, Luvox, Paxil, or a related drug. A documented side effect of these drugs -- known clinically as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) -- is akathisia, or physical and mental agitation. Dr. Whitaker says "akathisia is to violence what a match is to gasoline. And this condition has been reported in a significant number of Prozac users." Moreover, the Food and Drug Administration has received over 40,000 reports detailing adverse effects related to Prozac. The Scourge of Prozac by Dr. Julian Whitaker MD

Illinois Shooter was Treated with Psych Meds Prior to Shooting Rampage   It comes as no surprise to anyone who's been following school shootings all the way back to the Colombine High massacre in Colorado: Every young, male shooter that has gone on a killing spree in the United States also has a history of treatment with psychotropic drugs -- typically SSRI antidepressants. These shootings have three things in common: 1) The shooters are young males. 2) The shooters exhibit a mind-numbed disconnect with reality. 3) The shooters have a history of taking psychiatric medications.

Natural Solution for Depression, Stress, Anxiety, Worry, Panic Attack

Dr Peter Breggin,M.D the eminent psychiatrist and author (Toxic Psychiatry, Talking Back to Prozac, Talking Back to Ritalin), told me: "With Luvox, there is some evidence of a four percent rate for mania in adolescents. Mania, for certain individuals could be a component in grandiose plans to destroy large numbers of other people. Mania can go over the hill to psychosis." more  ---   also, check these google links

Childhood Anxiety Children are also vulnerable to stress. Some children suffer from anxiety and shyness and may struggle to adjust to new situations like school and friendships. Others experience worries about their safety or have intense fear of the dark, insects, animals or other creatures.

Protecting Patients or Pharmaceutical Companies?

Late last year, the FTC charged Natural Organics, a company that markets a natural alternative to Ritalin called Pedi-Active ADD, with making unsubstantiated claims — despite the fact that Natural Organics has submitted some 200 studies, including 18 double-blind studies, in support of its claims. According to Natural Organics CEO Gerald Kessler, the FTC has failed to produce a single study supporting its allegations. Kessler questions the FTC's motives, and I agree — it's not consumers the FTC is trying to protect, it's the profit-hungry pharmaceutical companies and their stockholders. 

On the Take: How Medicine's Complicity with Big Business Can Endanger Your Health     Jerome P. Kassirer MD
Some physicians become known as whores." This is strong language in Kassirer's mostly temperate but tough look at how big business is corrupting medicine—but according to Kassirer, one doctor's wife used the word "whore" to describe her husband's accepting high fees to promote medical products. Such personal anecdotes distinguish Kassirer's look at the conversion of America's health-care system into a commercial enterprise. Kassirer, former editor-in-chief of the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine, notes the range of conflicts of interest between profit-centered business and people-centered medicine, such as the drug industry's huge expenditures (in the billions) for courting doctors to use their products, for recruiting physicians to tout their drugs or, more slyly, to present seemingly objective medical discussions that, on closer examination, do favor the company's product over others. Kassirer also covers the abuses of both fee-for-service (which can lead doctors to perform unnecessary but lucrative tests and procedures) and HMOs (which reward doctors for keeping costs down).

Frank W. Gruber, M.D. - "Interestingly enough, as I had success with a few hyperactive children, word got around quickly. Parents are very interested in getting help for their children to keep them off of Ritalin. The pediatric segment of my practice has grown by leaps and bounds." more

Study Indicates Nutritional Deficiencies Lead to Aggression and Violence in Children

A new study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry shows that children who experience malnutrition exhibit strikingly increased behavioral disorders and aggressive behavior as they grow older. Children who suffered certain nutritional deficiencies demonstrated a shocking 41% increase in aggression at age eight. At age 17, they demonstrated a 51% increase in violent and antisocial behaviors. And the only difference is their diet.

Hugo Rodier M.D. - "There are very few products that provide all, or even most, of the raw materials to make new cells and sustain the existing ones. The problem is that we need ALL of them at the same time for things to work. One of those rare products that contains almost everything you need for life (and the rebuilding of a healthy life) is marine phytoplankton. It contains the nine amino acids that the body cannot make. The essential fatty acids are also present (Omega 3 and Omega 6). Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, D and major and trace minerals are all present in phtyoplankton. more

Günter Blobel, M.D., Ph.D. - "Glyconutrients are a new and more specialized type of nutraceutical. They support the process our individual tissue cells use to recognize, and communicate with, each other. The work that Dr. Blobel and many others have done let us understand the importance of good cell communication to ensure good health. The discovery of Glyconutrients and their role in human health is now in Mainstream Medicine."

Kathryn D. Dykman, M.D - “... In these studies, we could and did look at the effect of glyconutritionals, whether, these children are on the same medication that they had been on, whether we cut the medication in half, or whether they had been diagnosed and never put on medication.  All three groups of these children improved with just the addition of the Glyconutritionals in their diet.  In regard to the glyconutritional product and ADHD, I think that it is important for every parent and teacher to know about the glyconutritional product and how it might impact, not only the behavior, but also the health of the children.”   Article: Miracle in South Dallas - See how these sugars changed the academic performance and behavior of Dallas school children who many had given up on.

Lendon Smith, M.D. - "Most of the children I treated with diet and supplements no longer needed the Ritalin they had been taking. Their problem was not a Ritalin deficiency. They had mineral and vitamin deficiencies. Their behavior good mornings and terrible afternoons; either sleepy or restless and inattentive were easily explained by their diet. Along with a better diet, they needed minerals to act as co- enzymes for basic metabolism. As I expanded my research with reading and using nutrition as treatment for patients, I noted that the nutritional approach was valid for other conditions not just the hyperactive child."

The Whole Truth - We live in a society where $33 billion dollars per year is pumped into advertising unhealthy processed foods, fast foods and junk foods -  and a large percentage of that advertising is aimed right at your kids – and it works. 

The Hundred-Year Lie: How Food and Medicine Are Destroying Our Health   For nearly 100 years, food and drug manufacturers have been engaged in a mass experiment—and you, your friends and your loved ones are the test subjects. It sounds hard to believe, but the truth is neither the FDA nor food and drug manufacturers can really know that man-made chemicals are safe for long-term use.

Research over the past decade has demonstrated the importance of essential fatty acids and essential proteins (amino acids), trace minerals ( marine phytoplankton and AFA algae are a rich source of trace minerals) and magnesium. Now scientists and nutritionists are just beginning to understand that there are essential sugars (glyconutrients) as well.  Essential sugar compounds function individually as building blocks to assemble a nearly infinite variety of complex molecules known as glycans or sugar chains.  Glyconutrients research field has been in numerous peer reviewed articles and text such as Harper's Biochemistry, Acta-Anotomica (has the latest high tech grad level research in cellular biology - published in Europe), Science Magazine, Positive Health" Magazine, and more.

The Connection Between ADD and Diet

It has long been known that consumption of certain foods and beverages can have a noticeable and particularly bad effect on ADD children, causing severe problems. These children, for example, often become extremely hyperactive after having coloured cordials or fruit syrup drinks, hot dogs, various junk foods and cola drinks. Hafer has been studying the dietary connection to ADD/ADHD for twenty and more years. While it has long been known that some foods can make symptoms worse, why was not known. Hafer's genius lies in her close analytical investigation of the ingredients of the foods we consume, which led her to the discovery that there is a common component in the foods which affect ADD children. That component is phosphate. This major discovery led Hertha to write down her findings and publish them in her book The Hidden Drug - Dietary Phosphate (Cause of Behaviour Problems, Learning Difficulties and Juvenile Delinquency). more..

A.D.D. and A.D.H.D. Diet by Rachel Bell and Dr. Howard Peiper
This book is an updated version of Rachel Bell, Dr. Howard Peiper, and Nina Anderson's booklet, A.D.D. The Natural Approach. In the Preface the authors present a constellation of behavioral, cognitive, social, and muscular symptoms attributed to A.D.D./A.D.H.D. In the Foreword, Dr. Doris Rapp estimates that 8 to 22 million children will have been placed on activity-modifying drugs like Ritalin by 2000, yet 20 to 40% will not be helped by these drugs. She believes that many drugs should be the last choice in treating A.D.D./A.D.H.D., especially when they have a long list of side effects. The first choice should be to detect and eliminate "the cause" of the illness among multiple causes from favorite foods, diet, additives, metals, toxins, dust, mold, pollen, chemicals, noise, sources of electromagnetic (and other forms of) energy, misalignments of the skull, vertebra of the spine, and so on. The authors' strongly assert that you can do something about these conditions, if willing to open your mind, search, and find out what works best for you or a specific child.

It has long been known that consumption of certain foods and beverages can have a noticeable and particularly bad effect on ADD children, causing severe problems. These children, for example, often become extremely hyperactive after having coloured cordials or fruit syrup drinks, hot dogs, various junk foods and cola drinks. 

"My son, who is 8 years old has been diagnosed since birth with epilepsy, autism, ADHD, tourettes, and more. He was using 5 different medications a day and it was a struggle to get him to function. People were scared of him. He would never get invited to birthday parties or sleepovers. He had a very aggressive nature, he could only sleep 2 hours at a time, he was wetting the bed and was 15 pounds underweight. After 6 weeks of taking Marine Phytoplankton he is now medication free, which is amazing! He has been in a special needs school since he was 3 years old. His teacher cannot believe the difference in his behavior in such a short amount of time. The boy that always struggled, just received 3 A's, 2 B's and 1 C on his final report card. He is now sleeping through the night, no longer wets the bed and his weight is now up to normal. Everybody is noticing the dramatic change and is asking what has happened. All we can say is Marine Phytoplankton and hand them a brochure. I had tears in my eyes when he got invited to a birthday party and his first sleepover recently. Life cannot be better when you see your children live happy and peaceful lives. Words cannot express the gratitude I have. Thank you Marine Phytoplankton for giving us peace and well-being. Before Marine Phytoplankton the cost of the medications for the 3 of us was $800 per month!" R. R.

Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation.  more about marine phytoplankton's healing power

The school used to be out of control. Kids packed weapons. Discipline problems swamped the principal’s office.

Hailed as a revolutionary advance, Feingold’s findings were soon trashed by the medical cartel, since those findings threatened the drugs-for-everything, disease-model concept of modern healthcare.

Mangesium Deficiency and Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

Some experts believe that children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be exhibiting the effects of mild magnesium deficiency (such as irritability, decreased attention span, and mental confusion). In one clinical study of 116 children with ADHD, 95% were magnesium deficient. In a separate clinical study, 75 magnesium-deficient children with ADHD were randomly assigned to receive magnesium supplements in addition to standard treatment or standard treatment alone for 6 months. Those who received magnesium demonstrated a significant improvement in behavior, whereas those who received only standard therapy without magnesium exhibited worsening behavior. These results suggest that magnesium supplementation, or at least high amounts of magnesium in the diet, may prove to be beneficial for children with ADHD.

Magnesium is nothing short of a miracle mineral in its healing effect on a wide range of diseases as well as in its ability to rejuvenate the aging body. Symptoms of magnesium deficiency may include agitation and anxiety, restless leg syndrome (RLS), sleep disorders, irritability, nausea and vomiting, abnormal heart rhythms, low blood pressure, confusion, muscle spasm and weakness, hyperventilation, insomnia, and even seizures. Approximately nine out of ten people will show dramatic improvements in the state of their health when they replete their magnesium levels and the very best way to do that is with ancient minerals magnesium drawn from an ancient inactive seabed 2 miles beneath the earth in Europe. With such “brine solutions” one can simply apply the concentrate to the skin or pour it into ones bath water and one will have a medical treatment of primordial priority. Nothing short of a miracle is to be expected in ones health status if one is ill when one increases the cellular levels of magnesium. more: educational information

ADD and Allergies Excerpt from Dr. Rapp's letter

"A local Phoenix station interviewed a mother with an extremely aggressive son and found the answer in the refrigerator. Red dyes, as Dr. Feingold stated in the '70¹s and I said in the 80¹s, triggered this boy¹s reaction. . There are hundreds of thousands of parents who have seen their children become wild and uncontrollable from a highly colored beverage or cereal.

Many are diagnosed as ADHD or ADD. Many are aggressive beyond words. They can attack parents with bats, knives, bottles, sticks, and anything else that is handy. I have seen parents who had bite marks up and down their arms. These are battered mothers who rarely complain. They are angels! I have had parents run from three year olds. Many are afraid of their children and constantly fearful that the phone will ring with one more complaint. Most of these children look allergic and if you can find and eliminate the cause, they stop having difficulty. Sure, the insurance will pay for activity-modifying drugs, but these don¹t always help and sometime they must be stopped. Sometimes they cause even more serious side effects. The answer is to pay attention to what was eaten, touched or smelled just prior to the attack. If the cause is a food, dust, mold, or pollen, the reaction occurs about 10 to 60inutes after exposure. If the reaction is due to a chemical odor (perfume, disinfectant, a pesticide) the response can be immediate and devastating."

Dr. Doris Rapp is a board certified environmental medical specialist and pediatric allergist. She is Clinical Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at the State University of New York at Buffalo and the founder of the Practical Allergy Research Foundation. She is the author of The New York Times best seller, Is This Your Child? For more than twenty-five years, Doris Rapp, MD, has been treating children whose lives have been hampered — sometimes critically — by allergies and chemical sensitivities. Everyone knows about the role of allergies in problems such as asthma and hay fever, but very few people are aware of the staggering variety and extent of the illnesses triggered by allergic responses and sensitivities to substances of various kinds, natural and (increasingly) unnatural.

RITALIN CAUSES GENETIC DAMAGE, CANCER 
A new study found that every one of a dozen children treated for attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder with methylphenidate experienced a threefold increase in levels of chromosome abnormalities—occurrences associated with increased risks of cancer and other adverse health effects. Methylphenidate is the most widely prescribed of a class of amphetamine-like drugs used to treat ADHD, with more than 10 million prescriptions written for it in 1996 alone. Between 1991 and 1999, United States sales of methylphenidate increased more than 500 percent.

Researchers at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) reported their detection of the chromosome abnormalities in the journal Cancer Letters. Their peer-reviewed paper is to be published several months hence, but the journal editors have made it available online in the journal’s “articles in press” section. 

Lawsuits filed in Texas, California and New Jersey claim that the booming success of Ritalin is the result of a conspiracy in which the American Psychiatric Association, Novartis Pharmaceutical Corp. and national parents' group Children and Adults With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (CHADD) colluded to create the diagnoses of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Following the acceptance of ADD/ADHD as medical diagnoses, sales of Ritalin and similar stimulants have skyrocketed, with more than 6 million such prescriptions being written in 1995, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.

And former New York Times reporter Petersen details these deceptions with information that will be startling even to those who closely follow the news on big pharma. more info

Consider Fish Oil Over Ritalin

Dr. Mercola - "Over one million American children take drugs for ADHD. Clearly it's not the answer, especially when there are better options. Omega-3 oils, specifically fish oil, is probably the single most important nutrient for a child with ADHD to take. I would highly recommend Dr. Stoll's book The Omega-3 Connection. He is a Harvard psychiatrist who has done a great job compiling evidence supporting the use of fish oils." 

ADDers Are More Likely to Have Fatty Acid Deficiencies  A Purdue University study showed that kids low in Omega-3 essential fatty acids are significantly more likely to be hyperactive, have learning disorders, and to display behavioral problems. Omega-3 deficiencies have also been tied to dyslexia, violence, depression, memory problems, weight gain, cancer, heart disease, eczema, allergies, inflammatory diseases, arthritis, diabetes, and many other conditions.

Over 2,000 scientific studies have demonstrated the wide range of problems associated with Omega-3 deficiencies. The American diet is almost devoid of Omega 3's except for certain types of fish. In fact, researchers believe that about 60% of Americans are deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, and about 20% have so little that test methods cannot even detect any in their blood. Your brain is more than 60% structural fat, just as your muscles are made of protein and your bones are made of calcium. But it's not just any fat that our brains are made of. It has to be certain types of fats, and we no longer eat these types of fats like we used to.  Worse, we eat man-made trans-fats and excessive amounts of saturated fats and vegetable oils high in Omega-6 fatty acids, all of which interfere which our body's attempt to utilize the tiny amount of Omega-3 fats that it gets. Other parts of our bodies also need Omega-3 fatty acids. Symptoms of fatty acid deficiency include a variety of skin problems such as eczema, thick patches of skin, and cracked heels. Omega 3 fatty acids are known to improve mental function, mood, memory and concentration and have already demonstrated considerable success in the treatment of conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADD and ADHD. more

Hyperactive children lack essential fatty acids - WEST LAFAYETTE, INDIANA. Children suffering from attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are inattentive, impulsive, and hyperactive. Researchers at Purdue University now report that hyperactive children have lower levels of key fatty acids in their blood than do normal children. Their experiment involved 53 boys aged 6 to 12 years of age who suffered from ADHD, but were otherwise healthy and 43 matched controls. Analyses showed that the boys with ADHD had significantly lower levels of arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids in their blood. The hyperactive children suffered more from symptoms associated with essential fatty acid deficiency (thirst, frequent urination, and dry hair and skin) and were also much more likely to have asthma and to have had many ear infections. The researchers conclude that ADHD may be linked to a low intake of omega-3 fatty acids (linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids) or a poorer ability to convert 18-carbon fatty acids to longer more highly unsaturated acids. The researchers conclude that supplementation with the missing fatty acids may be a useful treatment for hyperactivity. Stevens, Laura J., et al.

Nutrition for Children

There are many serious consequences of generation after generation having diets deficient in an element essential for normal development of the nervous system. We live in a society where $33 billion dollars per year is pumped into advertising unhealthy processed foods, fast foods and junk foods -  and a large percentage of that advertising is aimed right at your kids – and it works.  The processed food industry has successfully changed what we consider to be “normal” in terms what we eat and what we feed our children. The processed food, junk food, and fast food industries are serving it up, Americans are gulping it down, and wide spread obesity and chronic disease is the result. From there, the masses are driven into the "waiting hands" of the highly profitable drug companies. We're offered pills that alleviate our symptoms while the simple underlying causes are ignored.  Every dollar that the drug companies spend on TV drug ads result in over $4 in drug sales and there’s no end in sight. more

Magnesium and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

"Some experts believe that children with ADHD may be exhibiting the effects of mild magnesium deficiency (such as irritability, decreased attention span, and mental confusion). In one study of 116 children with ADHD, 95% were magnesium deficient. In a separate study, 75 magnesium-deficient children with ADHD were randomly assigned to receive magnesium supplements in addition to standard treatment or standard treatment alone for 6 months. Those who received magnesium demonstrated a significant improvement in behavior, whereas those who received only standard therapy without magnesium exhibited worsening behavior. These results suggest that magnesium supplementation, or at least high amounts of magnesium in the diet, may prove to be beneficial for children with ADHD. Speak with your physician about possible use."

Fluoride Exposure During Pregnancy Links to Learning Disabilities Attention Deficit and Behavior Disorders - Dr. Phyllis J. Mullenix
Toxicology Department, Forsyth Research Institute, Boston, MA

Sodium Fluoride is currently added to the majority of municipal water systems in the U.S. to prevent cavities in children. Its use has risen rapidly since the 1950’s. Sodium Fluoride is also registered with the EPA as a rat poison, although advocates say its use in low levels in water poses no adverse health concerns. There has been considerable research done on fluoride regarding cancer, birth defects, and risks to the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urinary systems, however, very little has been done on its neurological effects. more

Post-Vaccinal Behavioural Problems
Ill-humour, anxiety, aggressiveness, contact disturbances, hysterical behaviour, ADHD, PDD-nos, ADD, autism - A proof by cure with homeopathy 

In this article it is intended to show evidence of the relationship between vaccination and behavioural problems in children, from mild to severe (ADHD and autism), through 30 case histories. The evidence is provided through the use of potentised vaccines. The hypothesis is that if the complaints disappear or strongly ameliorate with the treatment of the potentised substance which is supposed to be the cause of the complaints, the proof is delivered that the particular substance caused the damage. The fact that mild, moderate and severe cases of behavioural problems, often with concomitant physical problems, are seen and cured by this method strengthens the evidence of a causal relationship between vaccinations and behavioural problems. more

Congressman is calling for criminal penalties for any government agency that knew about the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to protect American children. Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana) during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal, and the only  test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis, and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what they knew and when they knew it.

This mercury calculator will help you determine how much mercury a child received at previous vaccination visits or could receive in an upcoming visit. The products are listed by brand name and manufacturer. Some vaccines have two company names because over the past several decades there have been many company mergers.

“Tolerance Lost”  a 3 DVD series by Dr. Andrew Moulden BA, MA, MD, PhD,  proves that ALL vaccinations cause immediate and delayed, acute and chronic, permanent and transient, disease and disorders that cut across all organ systems.Tissue damages are a result of impaired blood flow and blood 'sludging" in the microscopic vessels throughout the circulatory system.

Toxic Metals - A Cause of Autistic Spectrum Disorders and ADD/PDD? 

Nancy Hallaway, RN, and author of the book Turning Lead into Gold - How Heavy Metal Poisoning Can Affect Your Child and How to Prevent and Treat It, found this out the hard way. Her twin boys were diagnosed as hyperactive with Attention Deficit Disorder and severe autistic tendencies. Her doctor found unacceptable levels of lead, arsenic, aluminum and cadmium in their bodies, and his treatments led to immediate and spectacular improvement in both children. 

These children were prescribed Ritalin, then Anafril, and then Clonidine at age three. Since their first treatment to remove the heavy metals, they have not needed any medications at all for their previously diagnosed disorders. According to Nancy Hallaway, their eye contact is great, their unusual agitation and anxieties have disappeared, and though Nancy was told that the twins might never talk, not only are they both talking now, but they attend regular classes in school. All this resulted from removing toxic metals from their body tissues. 

Whether the link to heavy metals, chemicals and vaccination toxins is causal or not, there is no question among many doctors, scientists and parents alike that children have regressed developmentally and/or shown signs of autistic spectrum disorders and ADD upon receiving the basic childhood vaccinations, such as MMR and DPT.  more

In addition, mercury and other heavy metals can accumulate in the body of the fetus, as these metals can and do cross over from the mother into the unborn baby via the placenta. Particularly implicated are iron, lead, mercury and copper. This may explain why some children who were not immunized nevertheless have autism or show autistic tendencies. 

The fact that heavy metals can and do build up in the body of unborn children echoes the findings of doctors Walsh and Usman: If these children are missing an enzyme to break down heavy metals, these metals that cross over from the placenta will accumulate in the tissues of the body and cause damage to the brain and immune system, even in unborn children.

Nutritional Supplements, ADD and Children's Health  by Lendon Smith, M.D.
Most of the children I treated with diet and supplements no longer needed the Ritalin they had been taking. Their problem was not a Ritalin deficiency. They had mineral and vitamin deficiencies. Their behavior good mornings and terrible afternoons; either sleepy or restless and inattentive were easily explained by their diet. Along with a better diet, they needed minerals to act as co- enzymes for basic metabolism. As I expanded my research with reading and using nutrition as treatment for patients, I noted that the nutritional approach was valid for other conditions not just the hyperactive child.

He had very bad effects from taking this drug and it caused him to act unlike his natural self. At times he would be violent on the drug and he even started gouging holes in the walls of his room. There were other times when he would sit in a chair for literally hours, sometimes 3-4 hours, and do nothing except stare and drool."

An Alternative to Ritalin: Homeopathy as a Highly Effective Treatment for ADD

The homeopathic approach is growing in popularity as an alternative treatment for hyperactivity in children. Homeopathy is gaining recognition in the conventional field of medicine and has been subject to many clinical trials. 

Homeopaths are able to treat ADD effectively in many cases by bringing the individual into balance. Homeopaths treat people with ADD, not the ADD itself. For a homeopath, what needs to be treated is the specific pattern of symptoms which an individual presents. Only the one homeopathic medicine that specifically matches the unique symptoms of the individual will allow the person to live in a functional way. 

Steve Waldstein RSHom (NA) is a classical homeopath with 20 years experience. He is the author of "How to Choose the Diet That's Right for You," a book on individuality in nutrition. He is the President of the Colorado Homeopathic Association and an officer and director of the North American Society fo Homeopaths (NASH). He is certified as a classical homeopaths by NASH. He has treated successfully hundreds of childrean and adults diagnosed as ADD or ADHD.

Homeopathy and Attention Deficit (ADD) and Hyperactivity (ADHD)
Homeopathy is safe and effective natural medicine with a high success rate in treating emotional and behavioral disorders in children and teens - including attention deficit, hyperactivity, depression, apathy, anxiety, anger, aggression, defiance, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Rather than suppressing symptoms, homeopathy seeks to create deep, long-term behavioral changes. Quoting from Edward H. Chapman, M.D., Dht, President of the American Institute of Homeopathy, and Clinical Instructor at the Harvard University School of Medicine: "For those who need support in their struggle with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder … they can be assured from two hundred years experience using homeopathic medicines that they are safe. Your conventional doctor may be skeptical if you choose to use homeopathy. Don't let that stop you. Seek assistance from well-trained homeopathic providers who are willing to work with you and your doctors." more

Helping Children, Not Drugging Them - Insane Psychiatry A Profession Run Amok
Excerpt from the Citizens Commission on Human Rights site

A wide variety of complaints, including over-activity, fatigue, bed-wetting, inappropriate behavior, and even epilepsy, in some children, may be due to allergies. Allergic infants can be so hyperactive that they rock their cribs about the room or bounce them off the walls and begin to walk earlier than normal. By isolating and correcting this, the child can be helped so that there are no symptoms and no need for drugs.

Medical Fascism in the USA and the UK - Courts Order Kids To Take Drugs

Parents may face jail over compulsory drug orders 

USA: In September 2002, California Governor Grey Davis signed a most controversial mental health bill which puts parents at risk over compulsory drug orders. 

UK: In the UK, parents of children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) will also face jail if they refuse to drug their children. Dr Johnson, a clinical psychiatrist for 40 years, said the huge rise in the use of drugs was worrying. Some parents say they have little choice but to use drugs for their children.  more

This book is obligatory reading for anyone who wants to make sense out of the present confusion about medicating children to improve their behavior. Dr. Diller is a rare voice of moderation in this disputed area. He agrees that a few children are greatly improved in the short term by such medications, but he decries the excessive labeling, the unreasonable pressures from schools and parents, the aggressive advertising by the drug companies to parents and physicians, and the neglect of the essential psychosocial management of these children with such traditional techniques as effective discipline." - William B.

The Hazards of Treating "Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder" with Methylphenidate (Ritalin) by Peter R. Breggin, M.D.

ABSTRACT. The criteria for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder focus on behaviors that adults find frustrating and disruptive. Conflicts between children and adults are redefined as diseases or disorders within the children. Treatment with stimulant drugs such as methylphenidate (Ritalin) will produce greater docility in any child (or animal) without actually improving conduct or academic performance. Parents are not informed that they are trading behavioral control for toxic drug effects. The label ADHD is attached to children who are in reality deprived of appropriate adult attention These children require improved adult attention to their basic needs.

Success With Attention Deficit Disorder and Hyperactivity 
by Dr. Allen Buresz

Avoiding Ritalin

"In 1996 the World Health Organization warned that Ritalin over-use has reached dangerous proportions. Hopefully, by being armed with correct information, you may be able to avoid using Ritalin or other similar medications. Use of these drugs on a long-term basis is questionable. Safety of such long-term use is simply unknown, but many dangerous side effects have been increasingly. Ritalin, for instance, may provoke seizures and suppress growth, or it may cause angina, blood pressure changes, depression or any of a very long list of serious side effects."

Beat Your Depression Naturally  Depression is "public enemy number one" when it comes to psychological illness. It descends upon 40 million US citizens every year. It removes all the joy from their lives, leaves them unable to function and causes their family and friends much distress. It is a terrible thing to have to happen to you. What’s even worse is they are told the same old story about their depression and prescribed powerful anti-depressants to "cure" them. These drugs may help temporarily. But that’s it. And if you aren’t told what depression really is, how can you defeat it?

Neurological and Immune Reactive Conditions Affecting Kids The mercury connection to neurological pervasive developmental disorders(autism, schizophrenia, dyslexia, ADD, childhood depression, learning disabilities, OCD, etc.) and developmental immune conditions(eczema, asthma, and allergies)

The Nervous System: Healing with Medicinal Plants Because herbal medicine is holistic medicine, it is, in fact, able to look beyond the symptoms to the underlying systemic imbalance; when skilfully applied by the trained practitioner, herbal medicine offers very real and permanent solutions to very real problems, many of them seemingly intractable to pharmaceutical intervention. Nowhere is the efficacy of herbalism more evident than in problems related to the nervous system. Stress, anxiety, tension and depression are intimately connected with most illness. And the herbalist finds his success accelerated by including in his treatment, medicine to free the body from the vicious cycle of interference from worry and nervousness that so often takes its toll on otherwise healthy systems.

Jaren's Story by J. Wayne Erickson "For the moment, Jaren’s family basks in the joy of having finally won their first major victory. We do not know that Pascalite will be an aid to all children or for any specific ailment. All I can assure anyone is that it has worked for me. There are no adverse health problems known to arise from its use. If permanent change and a cure for the majority of ADD and ADHD victims is to happen, we must look to the political and economic forces which allowed such things as MSG and aspartame to be even introduced to the public.  As Jaren’s true story illustrates, there are millions of children and parents who face a living hell from ADD and/or ADHD. They represent a major political force in a nation that is beginning to stagger from the economic load created by the unnecessarily ill effects caused by MSG , aspartame and Ritalin. It is necessary, for all of our health, that all variations of MSG are honestly labeled and people such as Jaren’s family can use their freedom of choice to avoid use. Furthermore, why not ban MSG, aspartame and Ritalin from our food, drink, cosmetics, vaccines and medicines forever? They are not needed. Safe alternatives are available. I can only hope that Jaren’s Story will help a few of the other Jaren’s of the world. Together, we can bring about change." Read this entire inspiring story

What Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually, as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.

Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

More pictures of vaccine damage available to view at the CDC website

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy, and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues. 

This child died as a result of vaccines (CDC website)

Congressman is calling for criminal penalties for any government agency that knew about the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to protect American children. Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana) during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal, and the only  test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis, and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what they knew and when they knew it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury compound called ethyl mercury. Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)

Raising Public Awareness
Most modern maladies are caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides, antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against them. more

Childhood Insomnia We all struggle to sleep sometimes and children are no exception. Sometimes sleep problems become chronic and a pattern of insomnia sets in. This can cause much frustration for children and their parents and can even result in relationship difficulties if the problem is not addressed. If you find yourself struggling to put your child to sleep night after night, then it is important to do something about it.
 

Childhood Anxiety Children are also vulnerable to stress. Some children suffer from anxiety and shyness and may struggle to adjust to new situations like school and friendships. Others experience worries about their safety or have intense fear of the dark, insects, animals or other creatures.
 

Natural Remedy for Bedwetting Bedwetting is common during the pre-school years and children vary in their ability to control their bladders at nighttime. It is quite normal for a child under the age of five to wet the bed occasionally and boys often take longer than girls to become dry at night. 'Accidents' do happen and should be dealt with kindly and sensitively in order to prevent emotional problems. Children who wet their beds should not be punished.
