A different child walked back into my room today. He sat still and quite for 30 mins while his Mum and I chatted. He did not interrupt us once. He looked well, had good colour in his face and had put on some much needed weight after Ritalin had caused severe appetite issues and weight loss. His sleep is much deeper and he even went to a sleepover and did not need his Melatonin. His mum reported him being more calm and happier in himself with better balanced emotions and responses.
He has been able to reduce his medication to half the dose with his Drs permission and is feeling much better for that as it was making him not want to eat barely at all and for a growing boy that was not good.
After doing some simple genetic testing we found one of the root causes of his ADHD. He has the MTHFR gene mutation in its most severe form. After prescribing the right supplement to bypass that he will be well on him way to becoming the best version of himself.
I can even see a future when he can stop the medication and manage his condition with just natural medicines.
I am incredibly proud of him and his parents for persevering and taking his supplements everyday. That is one of the challenges but most people who are serious about wanting change will do what it takes.
Please make an appt to see me if you or someone you know has diagnosed or suspected ADHD. Im seeing great improvements with adults and children alike. So rewarding!!
