Statistics

In the 1990s, diagnosed cases of ADHD in the United States increased dramatically. The number of children with a diagnosis of the disorder climbed from 950,000 in 1990 to more than 2.4 million in 1996, and the number of adults with a diagnosis of ADHD more than tripled between 1992 and 1997.

The number of children treated with psychostimulants such as Ritalin has more than tripled in recent years. In fact, as many as 75 percent of children with ADHD may be taking some form of stimulant medication. A study that appeared in the October 2000 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association found that the number of children between the ages of 2 and 4 taking stimulants had more than doubled between 1991 and 1995.

A number of studies have found that pregnant women who smoke are at increased risk of having children with ADHD. Some studies also suggest that alcohol or drug abuse during pregnancy may reduce activity of the nerve cells (neurons) that produce dopamine. In addition, at least one study found that pregnant women who are exposed to environmental poisons such as dioxins and PCBs are more likely to have children with ADHD.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, 3.8 million school children are diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and at least 2 million take Ritalin, a stimulant, for symptoms such as inattentiveness, impulsivity and sometimes hyperactivity. Many others are treated with different drugs.

Guys I know from 1st hand what it’s like to have a child who suffers from this.  I see my son everyday suffering from this and it’s something you can control if you take the right steps.  My son was DX with it at the age of 3 and now he is 8.  We have been on meds after meds and it helped for only a short time.  One and half years ago I found this great company and it has changed him and has give me pace of mind knowing he is not taking a drug that he could be addicted to.  I can say now he is an a b student now and can sit and watch a movie without talking and playing.  He loves the fact that he can watch a movie and talk to friends about it now.  He is now playing baseball  and loves it before he couldn’t play since he wouldn’t stay in the field long enough to field the ball, he tells me daily mom thanks for all of the help I love being able to play and enjoy my friends now.  This is the greatest feeling know that my son feels normal again.  (whatever normal may be).  If you a child who is suffering from this please visit www.livetototalwellenss.com/brandy and check it all out it would be worth you time and wouldn’t be worth the happiness that it would bring you child.
