Question
A friend of mine recently asked for something for her son who has been on RITALIN for FOUR YEARS. She says her son's doctor couldn't figure him out, so he referred him to a specialist who says the kid definitely has A.D.D.
Answer
I cannot stress diet and mild cleansing enough with these children. They also
have to have distinct boundries (I was one of them and gave birth to two out
of three with ADD). The dark circles usually are liver and allergies. I
would give the child lots of veggies and extra chlorophyll (comes in gel caps
too). I would also give him the new Mineral Chi (it does wonders for me).
They need calcium, minerals and firm teachers and quiet classrooms.
Invariably they want to put them in with the behavior problems which is not a
good atmosphere. These children are almost always very bright and
intelligent. No sugar or food additives is very important. And I don't mean
"not much sugar". Pasta, fruits and especially fruit juices are sugar also
remember. He needs his daily fruit, but that is all - not juices all day -
lots of water. The calcium will help with nerves and with sugar craving.

Question
I have some friends who went to their first parent-teacher meeting last night and found out that their son cannot sit still. They are concerned that he won't be able to make it in the classroom. Do you know of any herbs that will help calm a child?
Answer
All of these children are different but I have worked with several hyperactive children and find that they are in great need of Mind Max, STR-C
and magnesium, along with one of the children's multiples. The magnesium
helps to calm the nervous system and I use the STR-C over the STR-J just
because it also works on the emotional aspects of the problem and helps them
fall asleep. These children are usually hypoglycemic also and all of my
children muscle test strongly for HY-C and chromium. If the children are
small, use the STR-J liquid at 1/2 tsp. 3x a day for babies through about 2 and 1 tsp. 3x a day for older children. Don't forget to work strongly with the diet also. This is a major factor with all of my children and once that is turned around, less of the nutrients are needed also.
Answer
Christine: No problem! Start their son on the STR-J liquid - 1/2 tsp 2 - 3
times a day. Make sure he is also taking our Herbasaurs Multi-vitamin plus the Antioxidants with Grapine. They must modify his diet. Eliminate all
dairy, sugar, any products containing aspartame or nutrisweet, all food with
artificial coloring, minimize food with preservatives. In about two weeks
they should have a new child. Make sure they check back with the teacher for
some results. Then the program can be modified if needed. This is not a
short-term program, it should be continued - the most dramatic results will be
over a three-month period. We have helped many children with similar problems -
one of my managers is a Montessori Teacher! Also, kelp or spirulina can be
added. Don't worry about calcium - if kids eat green vegetables they get
+calcium - or add the Herbasaurs Children's Chewable Calcium
Answer
Have they had him checked for parasites. It seems that if they had to have a teacher tell them he couldn't sit still, then it must not be
something he's always had a problem with. They could give him Herbal Pumpkin
and Bifidophilus for the parasites as well as the homeopathic Parasites. For calming and concentration, they can use STR-J and GGC.

At National Convention, Dr. Segelman made a brief statement about having excellent results with ADD and colloidal minerals.
