HELP FOR CHILDREN
As parents, we all want our children to succeed in school
as well as in life

When they are hyperactive, can’t focus in school, demonstrate aggressive or even violent behavior, we search frantically for solutions … frequently turning to the family doctor. Too often the answers we get are in the form of tranquilizers or Ritalin, which cover up symptoms, add complications with their side effects and may not solve the underlying problem.

Colorings and Preservations
Studies have been conducted that show artificial food colorings and preservatives increased hyperactive behavior. According to Will Boggs, M.D., "children's hyperactivity fell after withdrawal of food additives from the children's diets... (and) there was an increase in hyperactivity when food additives were re-introduced."

Children and Detoxification
In children, the organs responsible for detoxifying, or removing harmful substances, are not as effective as those of adults. Because children tend to consume more heavily processed foods than adults, chemicals, preservatives, and additives have a disproportionately higher impact on them. A parent’s job of providing nutritious foods is made even harder because of the wide array of brightly packaged, tasty, quick and easy foods that are intensely marketed and widely available. Prepared foods and mixes offer convenience, but remember with convenience comes the use of at least some of the 3000 various food additives.

ADD
Hundreds of scientific studies conducted by reputable physicians and research professionals indicate that ADD, violent behavior, anger, depression, insomnia, anxiety and weight problems in children can be dramatically improved by adding the right supplements and making dietary changes.

Children and Asthma
Especially pleasing to the parents of asthmatic children is the powerful and iimmediate effect Fulvic therapy produces. New research by Dr. David L. Hahn of Dean Medical Center, Madison, Wisconsin, shows that asthma patients have been found to have a high level of antibodies for Chlamydia pneumonia, which seems to be a common denominator among asthma sufferers. Comprehensive hospital studies show that humic extracts (fulvic and plant derived minerals) are more effective than conventional drug therapy for asthma, respiratory tract viruses, retroviruses, influenza viruses and even the common cold and flu viruses.

Although the studies have been published in medical journals around the world, their results are largely overlooked by the traditional medical community. That puts the burden of finding viable solutions, that are good for our children over the long run, directly on the shoulders of the parents.

Fortunately the solution may be much simpler that we realize. By changing eating habits, and adding plant derived ionic minerals, vitamins (especially B vitamins), and EFA (essential fatty acid) supplements, many parents have seen dramatic changes in a short period of time.

NEW REPORT: Also be sure to read about a dangerous substance that affects children 4 times more than adults: MSG - A dangerous excitotoxin

A good resource for help: The following web site is an excellent resource for information on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and how essential fatty acids may be an important key: http://addadhdadvances.com/efa.html

Imagine how the self esteem of a child soars when they don’t have to deal with their own hyperactivity, lack of focus, anger, violence or excessive weight problems. Eliminating these distractions results in better memory, retention, and ultimately higher grades. Creating a positive change in your child could be as easy as diet modifications, and the addition of essential vitamins and minerals.
