Testimony of Audrey Lampert's 12 yr old son Clayton
Having been diagnosed as &
medicated for ADHD, in fact, "Clayton did NOT have a
neurologic or psychiatric 'disease.' He had a
'broken brain' caused by nutritional imbalance;
toxicity & altered immune, neurotransmitter &
digestive functions. Treating those (NUTRITIONAL)
root causes & correcting the imbalances led to the resolution
of ALL his symptoms."

Pycnogenol is a generic name for a mixture of
procyanidins extracted from the bark of the pine tree (Pinus
maritima) common to the Gascogne region of France. Pycnogenol has many
active compounds, primarily
consisting of dimmers of catechin, & oligomers of catechin and epicatechin.
Similar compounds are also found in cocoa, chocolate, & some fruit. Their
pharmacodynamic action primarily consists of antioxidant properties & possible anti-inflammatory effects. Pycnogenol may also
influence the release of
catecholamines (including dopamine and norepinephrine) &
nitric oxide synthesis... |

7/2005 Life Extension magazine recommends omega-3 fatty acids,
acetyl-L-carnitine, choline, B vitamins, zinc & magnesium, +
herbal therapies that improve brain blood flow. ADHD, dyslexia + certain behavioral disorders are referred to as "phospho-lipid" disorders. Phosphatidyl-serine (PS) is a phospho-lipid nutrient related to fatty acids. It combines an amino acid component & a fatty acid component. Like essential fatty acids PS is vital to normal functioning of neurotransmitter systems, brain metabolism, brain cell connections & brain cell membrane fluidity. It may also help lower cortisol which is increased in chronic stress. 90% of brain growth occurs in 1st 3 years. Superior nutrition during gestation & preschool years is imperative. Professor S Schoenthaler found that 1 group of children confined in a psychiatric correctional facility all had clinical signs of poor nutrition confirmed by blood analysis. Correction reduced violence. Excess sugar/junk food intake has also been implicated in ADHD. Rule out thyroid abnormality. There are a number of medical theories, but insufficient documentation. www.lef.org |

The Second Brain in the Gut
CD - “3 Brains” - Healing Memories at Neurological Level - 2 hr DVD - http://www.aikohormann.org - Hormann, Aiko - Harmonizing Left & Right Hemispheres of the Brain - 2007 DVD - South Africa "Many intelligent & creative people are not as productive as they can be, or they may even be self-sabotaging (with 'inner conflict'), because the left & right hemispheres of their brains are not working harmoniously, & sometimes even 'fighting' against each other. The 2 hemispheres need to be adjusted & integrated properly. Inner-ear dysfunctions may also need to be corrected. The prayer session demonstrates HOW to correct them by the Power of God. Many ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) & learning disability conditions have also been healed. Hormann, Dr Aiko - http://www.healingroomsaz.com/AikoQA2/ Question: How do you help people with ADD & ADHD? Answer: ADD & ADHD has a frontal lobe either over-active or under-active and not balance. In ADD & ADHD - you need to tap the very center of the top of the head to stimulate the Para-sympathetic Nervous System. So actually, the bala nce between Sympathetic Nervous System & Para-sympathetic Nervous System maybe out of kilter. People who are agitated or who are over-active, attention deficit, usually have more Sympathetic Nervous System. 1 way of producing more Para-sympathetic Nervous system is looking at the center in front of you & moving both index fingers to the side to stimulate peripheral visions. ( Peripheral vision exercise) When you do this often enough, keep seeing index fingers on the side & your eyeballs fixed straight ahead. As you do this, you're actually stimulating the Para-sympathetic Nervous System. So that will calm the person with ADD & ADHD. But diet has a lot to do with it. Sugar should be eliminated all together & soda. Diet coke is not good. Carbonated drinks are not good either. Most sugar-free diet coke & other sodas has a neuro-toxin brain damaging aspartame in it. It will cause you to gain weight. Check labels for aspartame. Sugar-free chewing gums are notorious for (containing) aspartame. Find chewing gum with zylitol, the best. (However) the new Zero-coke has aspartame. The calories maybe true, but it would be destroying your brain cells + causing you to gain weight. Question: Do you say then ADD & ADHD children should NOT have any preservatives or processed food? Answer: Yes, lots of processed food have chemicals. Sugar is the major cause of hyper-activity in children. Honey is better but is still sugar. Splenda is just as bad. Stevia is better but zylitol is much better. |

reflect the presence of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), as

increase in suicidal thinking, hallucinations (both visual and tactile,
involving insects, snakes & worms), psychosis (the inability to distinguish real and
imaginary events), or cardiovascular events (strokes or sudden death). Canada removed Adderall off the market in 2005. Recommendation is that drugs carry a Black Box warning, FDA's strictest. |

Is there a chemical imbalance in the brain? Dr Peter Breggin, a psychiatrist for over 40 years, & a consultant for the National Institute of Mental Health, has written more than 20 books, including Medication Madness : A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood Altering Drugs. Dr Breggin gives some fascinating case studies where psychiatric drugs didn't cure chemical imbalances but caused them." |

healthy children a form of child abuse? What do psychiatric drugs do to a child's spirit? Dr Fred Baughman, a neurologist for 35 years & author of The ADHD Fraud- How Psychiatry Makes Patients out of Normal Children, is a legal expert before courts & legislatures. He says there's a link between school violence & psychiatric drugs yet schools & courts force parents to drug their kids.
