CHAPTER 1. NATURAL WAYS TO CURE
ADHD SYMPTOMS: REVEALING FACTORS
BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTIONS
Some of the behavioral interventions taught in
psychotherapy include teaching children ways to stay
focused on schoolwork, ways to relax, and ways give
themselves cues to get back on track when they become
distracted.
DIETARY CHANGES
Some experts suggest reducing the amount of refined sugar
and other simple carbohydrates as natural ways to stop
ADHD symptoms of hyperactivity. The reason for this
suggestion is that refined sugars and carbohydrates can
cause blood sugar spikes that can cause agitation.
Additionally, adding fiber and complex carbohydrates can
help reduce hyperactivity.
There is more than one natural med for ADHD. Some of the
products on the market are homeopathic remedies. Why and
how those products work is unknown.
Dr. Ben Feingold was one of the first to discover that modern
food additives caused problems for children and adults. Dr.
Feingold was a pediatrician and allergy specialist who began
practicing in the 1920s. His hypothesis is the basis for dietary
strategies to reduce hyperactivity.
Not only did Dr. Feingold recommend that people not eat
these chemicals, but he also recommended that they avoid
kinds of toothpaste and cosmetics containing them.
The synthetic food additives BHA and BHT, the FD&C food
colorings and many of the synthetic flavors are derived from
petroleum. The same thing we use to make gasoline.
But is treating ADHD with diet worth all the effort? The
answer is of course yes, in that there are now many studies
that show that diet does have an enormous influence on a
child's brain Having said that, there is, on the other hand no
magic diet for ADHD. But we can follow some sensible
guidelines to make sure we are on the right road, at least.
Apart from the above ideas here are some more sensible
suggestions on treating ADHD with diet. The first thing is not
to be phased at all when you read all the different types of
ADHD diet because they are not suitable for all children,
hence the enormous variation.

Low Self Esteem for those children with ADHD often starts in
early childhood sometimes before the child is ever diagnosed
and if something isn't done to help the child build better Self
Esteem then they carry this burden of not feeling "good
enough" throughout their entire lives.
You are also going to want to find those things your child
excels at and encourage those activities so that your child has
things that they can accomplish that they feel good about
doing.
Make charts for chores and use stars for good behavior so
that your child can see that they are doing things right.
