Your Kid Does Not Have ADHD
Aug 27, 2024ADHD is solely “diagnosed” based on a set of symptoms that tell us NOTHING about the cause.
Yet, over 11% of U.S. children are labeled with ADHD - which is more than a 40% jump in the last decade.And boys are labeled with ADHD 3x as often as girls.
Two-thirds of these children are prescribed stimulants such as Adderall or Ritalin. And children are prescribed these brain-destructive drugs as early as 4 years old.
Kids do not have ADHD
Kids with symptoms of ADHD (trouble concentrating, restlessness, impulsivity) are really struggling with one or more of the following:
-Major Mineral Imbalances
-Heavy Metal Toxicity
-Microbiome Imbalances
-Nervous System Dysregulation
-Airway Issues / Sleep Disorders
-Vision Problems
-Effects of Electronic-Screen Exposure
-Brain Injuries (birth trauma)
-Emotional Trauma
-Other Toxic Overload (chemicals / parasites)
-Wrong learning environment
Medication Does not Cure ADHD
If your child has symptoms of ADHD, medication is not the answer as it does NOTHING to address the root cause(s). Bringing balance to the brain, means healing the whole body. And the healing journey is always worth it!
