Non medication ADHD supplements.?!


Question: Non medication ADHD supplements!.!?
My step daughter just got dignosed with ADHD combined!. The phycologiest wants her to start medication right away but she is 4 and I'm not sure I want to do that at this age!. Is there any dietry supplements that we can give her instead of the medication!. I know Fish oil is a good one or at least that is what the dr said but she isn't old enought to swallow a pill of any size expectually that size!. Also there is no way I'm going to be able to get her to drink it because of the taste!. I would really like to know what someone else might use with their kids that have ADHD something that she can and will take!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i was diagnosed with add in kindergarten, so i feel for you!. as a result of this i feel very strongly against medicating such a young child!. it really creates a crutch for them their entire lives and medicating makes situations in the long run worse for the wear!. i would just slightly caffeine her, that's what i find is the best substitute!. like (i know this sounds bad) but a glass of soda with breakfast or iced tea in the morning!. it counter acts if she actually is add!. i just, i really believe that whomever has a child diagnosed with any form of add at an early age should speak with someone who's grown up with it!. the long term effects fo being medicated with such heavy stimulants really hinder abilities in the long run!.

I think 4 is too early to diagnose ADHD!. At that age, all kids act like they have it!. Sounds like the psychologist has an agenda!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
