Common Questions and Answers about Adhd natural supplements

adhd

Avatar f tn Kennedy - I thought that supplements such as Omegas, Vitamin B complex, magnesium and zinc have shown to help ADD/ADHD. I agree that, these supplements will not eliminate the symptoms. I think that research ahs shown that these supplements help to reduce the symptoms and also reduce the amount of medicine needed, assuming the parent decides to use medication. I would appreciate your comments.
Avatar f tn Attend is an all natural adhd product. I know people who used it and had great results.
Avatar f tn I have seen some improvement with his concentration , however would like to know if anyone can recommend any other natural supplements that has worked for their child or they have benefited from?
Avatar m tn Dew helps, but have never tried it. I have also heard other people talking about natural supplements, such as Omega 3,6,9, Fish Oil and Vitamin C. I have also never tried this for my stepson, but plan to. Hope this helps!
Avatar n tn I would think that large/most well stocked health food stores and pharmacies should stock the slow release B Vit's. Here in the UK I always go to Holland & Barrett's, they have everything you'd ever need and they are reasonably priced too. If you are in the states you could find it at GNC (who I think also do online orders). They have the "GNC Big 150 (Vit B)" which is a timed release one.
Avatar f tn The bottom line is that some kids do better with medications for add/adhd and perhaps adding to it with natural remedies will help. I do wish you well and commend you for addressing your child's issues through intervention early on. makes a HUGE difference down the road.
Avatar n tn Even though most natural supplements, herbs, etc. are completely harmless, there is always the possibility of a negative interaction with another medication. In my opinion, it is always best to consult your Dr. Your pharmacist is also a great resource. All the best to you!
Avatar n tn How about you try food supplements that have shown to have equal efficacy to Ritalin,Multiple vitimin with B Complex and Vit C . also Fish oil and been tried by many parents,with success, go into your local whole food store,if you have one called "Sprouts "they are very good and will go online for you to find what you need in a Natural Remedy to help you.If the drugs you have been trying dont work its time to find something less invasive that will, Good Luck.
Avatar f tn My son who has been having issues at school is now with a person 1:1. He says he is happy doing this and does not want to go back to the classroom, I'm concerned about this longterm. The learning specialist said this will be ok and we should be able to get him back to the classroom. I am just worried about him. the doctor wasn't sure i he had ADHD or not. My mom says put him on meds, try him, but I told her you have to have a prescription and i"m not sure that is best.
1367899 tn?1278121440 My sister and I started a blog on Adderall to learn more about the medication along with alternative and complementary ADHD treatment options. Any feedback from users of Adderall or Adderall XR would be greatly appreciated. Topics to be added this week on http://Adderall.org How is Adderall XR different from Adderall?

Avatar f tn As far as natural things that actually helped my son who is now nine we did fish oil supplements and a good multivitamin with zinc. I also eliminated artificial dyes from his diet.(fruit snacks and some of the yogurts he ate had it) this helped for a while however his adhd started affecting him at school and we started medication. But we did focalin xr and its only 10 mg. I didn't want to medicate either but I also didn't want him hindered either like his dad.
Avatar m tn s important to discuss anything (even natural supplements with a Dr.) Even natural supplements can interact negatively with each other, or other medications you are on. Natural does not mean safe. There is absolutely no scientific evidence that there is anyway to improve egg quality. Women are born with x amount of eggs, and that is what we get. They age just like we do, and that is where chromosomnal abnormalities come into play.
Avatar f tn Has anyone tried any natural supplements or vitamins to help with the diarrhea and constant bathroom trips.
Avatar m tn are there any natural supplements or foods that actually help to clear blocked arteries?
2181491 tn?1344988319 hi guys, its been a while since surgery still no change although my symptoms have been getting worse, gyno wants me to have more surgery but I feel like surgery has made it much worse and would like to try some new natural supplements I have been hearing about recently and I was wondering if anyone has tried them. *royal jelly *bee pollen *propolis *vitex *maca If so which one was it? did it help with pain? did it help you conceive? how long did it take to conceive while using it?
510969 tn?1212855281 All of the trial test results are the same - l-theanine is highly effective in the treatment of ADHD due to its ability to balance the neurotransmiters implicated in ADHD. The latest studies postulate that theanine modulates the levels of neurotransmitters, ie - if one's dopamine levels are too high, theanine lowers it. If one's serotonin levels are too low - it raises it. It also promotes alpha brain waves - the waves we have when we are calm, yet alert.
Avatar f tn how does a lack of magnesium affect the body?, im trying a natural approach for adhd/nld (similiar to asperger's) he is on fish friends which has epa and dha. mutlivitamins and still prozac which is cut down from 10mg to 5mg to wean him off, he was on concerta 36mg for adhd, clonidine .1mg to help with sleep and prozac10mg to combat severe side effects, then after starting prozac. he was chewing on the inside of his lower lip so bad, 2 weeks later and he now has two scars..
447130 tn?1225470866 A lot of parents feel the same way and are trying Natural supplements , one recent study suggests that all children, and especially those with learning difficulties,benefit from a Multiple Vitamin-mineral supplement with antioxidants, B Complex and Vitamin C also Fish oil has been found to work I agree with you and Today it seems that some parents and teachers believe that any Boy who wriggles in his seat and wilfully defies his teacher has ADHD , possibly well intentioned but misguided.
Avatar m tn are there any supplements that could help people with adhd?also does exercise help(cardio,weightlifting etc).can concentration be improved by other means (paying chess,sudoku) etc?i was wondering what else can i do for my problem since i cant concentrate 100% with antidepressants and i dont really want to deal with powerful stimulnt substances.
Avatar m tn Thre are natural things you can take and do to subside the symptoms. I hust learned that if you cut out all yellow food dye in your diet, it may help. Good luck!
Avatar f tn I know there are all natural supplements that can be taken that may help him. He may being going through all the hormone changes too, kinda sounds like it. I have a few friends that have started using omnitrition products also, one lady with a son whom has A.D.D started using one of the supplements and says it has helped her kid 100% . My younger brother has A.D.H.
