I don't have any experience with ADHD, but I just went to a natural path. She is a nurse, she practiced as a nurse for 15 years. Then did training as a naturalpath, and all the vitamins, minerals, suppliments, probiotics etc.
I have had stomach and severe allergies for 10+ years, and just been on the supplements she tested me deficient in, and things have improved, even though i've been to many, many medical docs over the years, been given other rx meds, but not of much help as all. Its spring here, and i've been waking up in the morning and been able to breath even when the previous day i was outside around things I was allergic too, normally it would be a week of stuffiness. For the allergies its a mineral called molybdenum, which is a trace mineral used to break down petroleum, and other products around us every day. Since i was deficient, my body just kept over reacting and couldn't process the substances.
I had to wait 3 months to get in to see her, and she doesn't accept insurance, as its on the iffy side, where insurance doesn't recognize it as helpful yet. She follows her training and guidelines about how she gives the suppliments. But, she mentioned she has helped some kids too, w/ adhd.
Most doctors don't have training in suppliments and vitamins, etc. So, they don't even know what your missing or not, so, even if you asked or told them what you were taking they wouldn't know if it was helpful.
I had been taking some suppliments on a guess as to what I was missing, so going to someone who was trained to figure it out was a relief and so helpful.

A few of the parents on my school district's Parent Advisory Committee message/support board have had success trying a pharmaceutical grade Omega-3 supplement to help their children, all with multiple "issues", increase their ability to focus. Anyone out there on the DIS ever tried that? Just thought I would ask.
