ADHD The Easier Solution

By Graham ADHD is a very rapidly growing part of the health

care industry. The symptoms are varied, including: irritability,

hyperactivity and behavioral problems. Many kids are so affected

that they require some pretty hefty drugs to control them. I spoke

at a medical conference in Denver in 2004. One of the other speakers

was a pharmacology researcher. He brought up a statistic that

indicated that kids on Ritalin [one of the prevailing drugs for

ADHD] tend to become addicted to methamphetamines.

On the radio the other day, NPR was talking about giving these kids

marijuana for the symptoms. What are we doing to our kids? According

to the Psychology Department @ the University of Tennessee, kids

with TRUE ADHD average about 5-7% of a normal classroom. However,

somewhere between 50% of kids in school today are diagnosed and

treated for ADHD.

What does this tell us? There aren't as many kids with ADHD as we

are led to believe. Why are we drugging the kids without true ADHD?

Because these kids are a behavioral problem. Surprisingly, we find

that when we get rid of mold and toxic chemicals in a house, kids

with ADHD in the home tend to get better. Almost immediately they

have to go off their drugs. Case file: We consulted with a school on

the east coast. The school had sick kids [sinus infections and ADHD]

and teachers [sinus infections and cancer]. The school board chose

to do nothing. The people on the school board had an agenda that

didn't include the health of the kids. Many of the parents took

their kids out of school to home-school. Guess what? The kids with

ADHD who were now being home schooled, had to go off their Ritalin.

The logic behind this is easy to follow. When mold grows in the

house, car or school, chemicals are given off. These chemicals are

known as mycotoxins. These mycotoxins cause many different problems

from cancer to dandruff. One class of mycotoxins is called

neurotoxins. These toxins affect the nervous system. They can cause

hyperactivity, confusion and even hallucinations. We had one home

where the family saw rats. The pest control company said they had

never had rats. We removed the mold and the rats went away.

Hallucinations caused by neurotoxins.

It is these mold toxins that can cause symptoms that can lead to

misdiagnosis. These toxins get into the body and mimic normal

chemicals that have specific functions. These normal chemicals may

tell the legs to move or tell the body when to calm down. If these

normal chemicals are bypassed or blocked by the toxins, then weird

things begin to happen in the child's world. If your legs moved when

you didn't want them to, wouldn't you be a little hard to get along

with? What is the cure? [Let's get one thing cleared up first.

Getting rid of mold will not change kids with real ADHD.] Although,

it may help. Too much moisture or too little ventilation in the

building causes mold.

1. So dry out the house. Make sure the vents in your attic and

crawlspace are open and working.

2. Fix leaks in bathrooms and kitchens.

3. Insulate A/C ducts and water pipes.

4. Get and use dehumidifiers to dry the air.

5. Leave washer and dryers open when not in use.

6. Make the yard drain away from the house.

Don't drug your kids. Cure their ADHD the natural way. Clean up your

environment. For 30 years, Dr Graham has been helping people treat

and prevent disease by showing them how to live in a clean
