Amino Acid Therapy for ADHD

The University of North Texas is conducting a study using NeuroResearch amino acid protocols that I use in my practice for ADHD. Twelve school districts in north Texas were recruited and have signed up to participate in the study. In the pilot study leading to this research project, Ross Stewart, PhD from Dallas, Texas, reported that 82% of children achieved relief of ADHD symptoms. Of the 18% that did not respond the problem revolved around not taking pills properly. The two primary problems encountered being oppositional defiance on the part of the child who refused to take the pills or parents that did not give the pills to their children properly. I have seen excellent results with the amino acid therapy for not only ADHD, but also depression, migraine headaches, menopausal symptoms, panic attacks, and obesity. It is a very useful adjuct to neurofeedback as it offers the brain nutritional support.
