ADHD/No to Ritalin

New American Magazine 091707

Unfortunately, there are millions of children, mostly boys (twice as many boys as girls are given psychiatric drugs), that are being diagnosed with so-called new diseases like ADHD and ADD.  A generation ago they did not exist.  Millions of children are then prescribed Ritalin, which is a trade name for Methylphenidate. (The Drug Enforcement Administration classifies Ritalin as a "Schedule II" substance.)  Ritalin has become a popular treatment for "attention-deficit" and "overactivity" problems in school--this is disgraceful and dangerous.

Dr. Mary Ann Block, D.O.--an expert on treating ADHD-ADD without drugs--approaches the underlying causes of the learning and health problems instead of prescribing dangerous psychiatric drugs!  (See links below for ADHD Kit and article entitled ADHD: Fix it without drugging your kids.)

[It should be noted that hundreds of violent episodes, including most of the  school shootings in the last two decades, the students were linked to some kind of psychiatric drugs (see websites below on subject).]
