Can anyone share your experience in raising a child that is ADHD? I have a son, who is now 22 years old, and still struggles with focus and understanding the results of his actions. Looking for insight to this. Thanks!

Thanks!

Do you know how this works on adults?

I certainly am not a physcian nor is any of my research in the area of physical health. Therefore, understand that most of my knowledge comes from listening to the channel designed specifically for medical professionals on XM radio. (They keep running a piece that says it is only for medical professionals and if anyone else listening they must not take what is being said as a substitute for seeing their own doc, etc.)

With that said, not long ago I heard a specialsist discussing research on Vitamin D. He said that no one living north of Atlanta can get enough Vitamin D from the sun. I had my doc check my Vitamin D level, which should be a minimum of 30, and it was 17. That led the doc to checking his and his was low as well. It's nearly an epidemic. Vitamin D helps the immune system and so many other things your body needs. Therefore, I now buy the Nature's Bounty D-5000 and take one each day. It is a gel type pill -- looks like a small fish-oil capsule -- that gives 5000 IU. I've already talked with two M.D.s who recommend that I take at least 5000 IU per day, so I'll just take one of these every day from now on. The most recent research indicates that we likely should have a D level somewhere in the 80 range, and I started 17, so I have a ways to go.
