Product Description

Product Description

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a nutritional deficiency, not a psychological condition; this is the revolutionary discovery Marcia Zimmerman made during her ten years of research as a nutritional biochemist. The conclusion led her to develop a diet addressing the specific needs of the 17,000,000 adults and children suffering from ADD; her easy-to-follow 30-day plan has been proven to be just as effective as the drug Ritalin in relieving the symptoms of ADD. This text explains: how women should boost their nutriton before conception to prevent ADD in their children; why boys are more likely to be labelled with ADD than girls; how to get a reliable ADD diagnosis; the advantages of a diet plan over pharmacological treatment; foods to avoid that may exacerbate ADD; fats and oils we need to stay focused; the calming effects of carbohydrates; and much more.

5.0 out of 5 stars This should be the first book you read on A.D.D.!, 27 Feb 1999
By A Customer
Over the past six years, I have read literally hundreds of books and articles on A.D.D., and consulted with some of the "best in this field" doctors. I truly wanted to help my son, and I did not agree with the doctors' "solution" of several doses of Ritalin daily. Marcia's nutrional plan was the only thing in my six year search that has really made a difference! After just altering a few of the many suggested dietary items, everyone noticed a remarkable change in Sean's behavior. He has been learning faster, is happier, and is much more like a "normal" kid. And the best part - he has been off Ritalin for over a year and a half! Parents - for yourself, but especially for your child: Read Marcia's book! It will make a positive difference in your family's life! The book is very interesting and is an easy read. (Unlike alot of experts who write on this subject, Marcia truly cares about our kids, and wants to make a difference!) I considered myself quite knowledgeable on this subject, but I learned so much from Marcia's book! THIS SHOULD BE THE FIRST BOOK YOU READ IF YOU EVEN SUSPECT YOUR CHILD HAS A.D.D.! God Bless Marcia! A very grateful parent, Lynn Stone

5.0 out of 5 stars A book to help parents and adults struggling with AD/HD, 7 May 1999
By A Customer
Finally, A book worried parents can use to tell whether or not their child has some type of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) or is merely exhibiting symptoms of normal, exuberant development. It goes on to explain AD/HD in depth. TFL contributing editor Marcia Zimmerman, a nutritional biochemist, talks about causal factors-environmental,genetic, and allergic-and options for treatment. Well-researched chapters on stimulant medication and dietary modification lead to "How Food Affects the Brain," a fascinting look at the chemical processes at work, the importance of maintaining healthy glucose levels in the brain, and the way sugar sabotages them. Zimmerman devotes more than 60 pages to her "drug-free, 30-day plan," and includes research-based recommendatons of nutritional supplements, foods and additives to avoid, menu plans, food substitutions, and recipes. Appendixes include helpful rersources that parents and professionals will welcome.

2.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat disappointing, 6 Feb 2002
This book has some excellent chapters on ADHD and its causes. However, when I got to the diet part of the book, I realised that the diet consisted of a very complex regieme and a total of seven supplements! "Drug free"? - I think not. Some of these over the counter "supplements" can be more harmful than prescribed medications. Although it starts off promising, this book is ultimately impractical and disappointing.
