What are some natural ways to ease ADHD symptoms?

I heard there are certain vitamins that help.

My nephew was labelled ADD / ADHD (depending on the doctor) in elementary school and before that was asked to be removed from 3 daycares because of behavioral issues. His Mum came upon the research of Dr. Doris Rapp and the Feingold program and after using this information - she removed his behavioral ‘triggers’ and he became one of the nicest, even-keeled boy who could focus for long periods of time… that you could ever meet. He still was high energy like you’d expect boys to be - but in a positive and productive way.

The book she started with was “Is This Your Child?” and then later “Is This Your Child’s World?” (or environment). Some kids and adults just get ‘triggers’ from what they eat and/or from their environment… like people who get migraines triggered from perfumes or those kids who actually are affected by certain food coloring. I used to get headaches from working in an office with flourescent lighting. My nephew had to stay away from salicylates - and red food coloring (others were okay) and then he was fine. Every child is different.

If memory serves correctly - Dr. Doris Rapp is a pediatric allergist - researcher. You can probably find her book(s) at most stores. (Mine are packed in boxes right now.) She presents very clear and thorough evidence as to why many children are mislabelled ADD or ADHD - and that they are just being triggered by something depending on their own personal level of sensitivity.

Don’t worry - it may not mean turning your life upsidedown. But, depending on how severe the ’symptoms’ are - let me tell you my nephew’s experience was like Jekyll and Hyde!

I have also seen evidence in my own children of their own specific triggers - when I see unusually red cheeks for no reason or a certain color of dark circles appear under their eyes and it’s not from lack of sleep - or the bottoms of their ears get red. After keeping a diary documenting things it was evident that my youngest was extremely crabby after having anything with red food coloring.

This can be applied to adults also. In my own case ice cream makes me feel restless and irritable unless it’s 100% natural (like Breyer’s). Believe me, my family is happier when I’m careful about these things. And, when using one particular line of hair gel and hair spray - the bottoms of my ears turn bright red. The body is very good at giving signs. The stuff from Dr. Rapp is great to help interpret the signs and maybe direct you to a local allergist through a nation-wide database, who can help you further.

I believe she has her own website now (my nephew is now in high school and is on the Honor Roll.) - so that would likely provide some great resources and links for other info to help you.

I thought the business about the food coloring and such was nonsense until I saw it for myself. But - it also doesn’t mean every kid has trouble with it. Good luck to you! :-)
