Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Many parents and physicians have become alarmed at the skyrocketing use of stimulant drugs such as Ritalin, Dexedrine, and Cylert for treating ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). Though they work for 75 to 80 percent of children, these drugs may have disturbing side effects such as decreased appetite and insomnia. The author shows that these drugs are too often an easy fix for a complicated disorder. Each of the 12 chapters of this guide offers specific steps parents can take to help their children, including improving eating habits, determining food allergies, and increasing vitamin and mineral supplements.

This easy to read book helped us find a little peace in our lives. We implemented many things from this book with our ADHD son. We have been doing this diet for about three months now. I have never recommended any other ADHD book. This is the first. I am amazed at the difference. These were easy things to implement. The nice thing about this book is you can try one thing at a time or a lot. It is not overwhelming. Some things this book helped my son with are; he's much less hyperactive, sleeps better, eats better, less moody and fewer meltdowns. The stress level in our family is way down. Thank you Laura! My son enjoys the recipes in the book as well. Check out her website too!

Laura Stevens provides a much needed road map for parents seeking help for their children with ADHD. By providing step-by-step instructions, sound nutritional knowledge, excellent examples, problem-specific narratives, and good, common sense day-to-day practices (i.e.-recipes), she is eliminating the frustration in the search for answers for current and future parents of children with ADHD. This book provides the type of aid that only could have been given by someone who has had very first hand experience in raising children with ADHD. Parents can now learn what to do directly from the book rather than waiting while much of the medical community is playing catch-up to scientific literature.
Rated by buyers -
This book is superb in every respect. It's comprehensive, yet concise, well organized and reader-friendly. It contains information which parents cannot find elsewhere.
Stevens is a mother and highly educated professional who is now carrying out research at Purdue University on the critically important role of essential fatty acids on children with ADHD.
In this book she gives parents and professionals a step-by-step approach for helping children. In my opinion, this book will be a bestselling book for parents in the very first decade of the 21st Century.
