Henry Holt & Company Inc The ADD Nutrition Solution by Marcia Zimmerman
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a nutritional deficiency, not a psychological condition; this is the revolutionary discovery Marcia Zimmerman made during her ten years of research as a nutritional biochemist. The conclusion led her to develop a diet addressing the specific needs of the 17,000,000 adults and children suffering from ADD; her easy-to-follow 30-day plan has been proven to be just as effective as the drug Ritalin in relieving the symptoms of ADD. This text explains: how women should boost their nutriton before conception to prevent ADD in their children; why boys are more likely to be labelled with ADD than girls; how to get a reliable ADD diagnosis; the advantages of a diet plan over pharmacological treatment; foods to avoid that may exacerbate ADD; fats and oils we need to stay focused; the calming effects of carbohydrates; and much more.
