Memorable Moments:\u201dADHD is actually one of the most common mental disorders affecting children. Just in the USA alone, there\u2019s over 6 million children that have been diagnosed, and 3/4 of them are receiving treatment of strong medication and/or behavior therapy.\u201d
\u201dADHD symptoms can be reduced - not just from medications. There are other strategies out there that can help a child thrive without just pounding on different medications and dealing with the side effects.\u201d
\u201dJust the basic day-to-day life without constant ups and downs and tension was all I wanted.\u201d
\u201dInflammation leads to difficult ADHD symptoms.\u201d
\u201dOur bodies have these pathways called detoxification pathways that clean out that trash - those toxins, those viruses, that bacteria, foreign substances that are really affecting our body, affecting our kid\u2019s body.\u201d
\u201dThe way that wheat is processed in the USA today is so different to how it was\u2026hundreds of years ago.\u201d
\u201dThere are artificial dyes that are banned in Canada, Europe, and Australia but they\u2019re allowed here in the food supply of the USA without a second thought.\u201d
\u201dWhen families make this change - that follow my plan - it\u2019s not just the child that starts to thrive. It\u2019s the whole family.\u201d
\u201dThe importance of diet in ADHD, it isn\u2019t just anecdotal. There is a lot of scientific research out there\u2026There is a clear link between certain foods and ADHD symptoms.\u201d
Lab testing \u201cis that really valuable tool to look beneath the surface and identify specific challenges with that gut or other areas that may be contributing to ADHD.\u201d
\u201dWe as parents hold the key to our child\u2019s nervous system until they are 18 years old. So they actually borrow our nervous system to regulate themselves.\u201d
