In Reply to: Alternatives to Adderal and other meds posted by patrick on April 06, 2000 at 13:46:31:
: I am a newbie to researching this condition (ADD). All the older posts on this subject have been deleted. Does anyone have info to point me toward alternatives to prescription drugs. Any type; diet, exercise, herbs, alternative forms of therapy, etc. I would love to hear anything. Thanks Patrick

Here goes:- my motherly opinion-i do believe add/adhd are autistic spectrum disorders and diet
can go a long way to ease and/ or remove the symptoms.
I strongly believe anyone with any ASD should be checked out for both Allergies and
Intolerances-amongst other things
( which you will find if you research properly-it's up to you 'open your eyes')
Check out the following charities run by parents for info on diet etc.

the above will also link you to the USA sister charity ANDI and others.
check out:- gfcfdiet.com
the gfcfdiet.com is full of info re: diet and message boards can be very helpful
There is hope for us all, good luck and best wishes to you, margaret
