A Natural ADHD Remedy: Treatment for Attention Deficit Disorder Without Side Effects

Natural ADHD RemedyAttention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affect approximately 5 percent of the world’s population. Both Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder are typically diagnosed in childhood. ADD/ADHD is a neurological disorder that is diagnosed because the patient exhibits a persistent pattern of a short attention span and impulsiveness, often coupled with hyperactivity, that can interfere with social interactions, occupational performance, and educational performance. ADD/ADHD usually begins to manifest in childhood and 40 percent outgrow ADD/ADHD by adulthood.

ADD/ADHD has also become the “catch-all” category for behaviors and attitudes that may have other root causes, which have not been explored. While a definite ADHD cause has not been discovered, it is currently believed that this condition is a genetic disorder, although this has yet to be proven. The current data is that 35 percent of adults who have children diagnosed with ADD/ADHD have the disorder as well. However, one-fifth of those diagnosed with ADD/ADHD are thought to have
acquired this disorder through environmental toxins or physical trauma.

Adult ADD/ADHD: Natural Alternatives Are for Adults, Too

ADD/ADHD affects 30-50 percent of adults who were diagnosed in childhood. Often, most of the childhood symptoms are outgrown and adult symptoms usually take on different forms. Some of the usual symptoms of Adult ADD are: short temper, stress intolerance, consistently forgotten meetings, missed deadlines, overlooked social obligations, and impulsive behavior. The impulsive behavior takes on the form of socially inappropriate behaviors, such as blurting out something that is deemed rude or offensive. To obtain an accurate diagnosis as an adult can often be more difficult than with children due to the overlapping of other conditions such as depression or substance abuse.

There are effective forms of treatment for both children and adults. The usual course of action is to combine medication, counseling, behavioral modification (children), lifestyle coaching (adults), specialized ADHD nutrition, and lifestyle change. Each form of therapy plays an important role with learning how to cope with Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

With Childhood ADD, behavioral modification positively teaches acceptable social behavior. For adults, employing a lifestyle coach can guide and encourage learning how to work with this condition, not against it. Diet plays a big part in all facets of someone’s lifestyle. By eliminating sugars (including artificial sweeteners), preservatives, food colorings, and flavorings—and incorporating foods that are high in protein and nutrients—the patient can greatly impact ADD/ADHD behaviors.

In addition to trying an ADD ADHD diet, it is important for both children and adults to allocate more “green time.” By spending more time outdoors, it has been proven for both children and adults alike, to reduce the symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. It is recommended to spend at least 30 minutes a day in a natural setting. It doesn’t have to be a strenuous activity, something as simple as taking a walk or having a picnic/lunch outside can be beneficial as a great mood booster.

Adults with this condition are often prescribed anti-depressants and/or stimulants. The prescription medications for those diagnosed with ADD/ADHD symptoms can carry potentially dangerous side effects. Research is currently being conducted to explore the long term safety of these drugs. Safe and natural homeopathic medicinals—like Växa Attend, a natural ADHD remedy—continue to be extremely effective alternatives for supporting attention difficulties in both children and adults.
