Testimonials of ADD and ADHD
Natural Supplement Programs
"A man walked into our shop one
day and said, "I heard you have something for ADD. What is
it?" I explained to him that we didn't have anything 'for'
ADD; that we only have nutritional supplements that simply support
the body nutritionally. He told me that his son's teacher was strongly
suggesting that the child be put on Ritalin. He said he thought
the child was just aggressive, and was refusing to put his child
on drugs. However, there was no "Special Education" at
the school so he had to find a solution or take the child out of
school. I gave him some literature on nutrition for children, and
the next day he came in for a bottle of Herbasaurs
Antioxidants with Grapine. He still wasn't convinced that
his son needed anything, but he wanted to go the nutritional route.
A couple of days later he sent word to me that his son had brought
home a note for good behavior! He still had some doubt and
didn't come back in. A couple of weeks later the teacher again
suggested Ritalin. At that point he started the Herbasaurs again,
the child got better again, and he is convinced that nutrition
made the difference."
"Heather, a ten-year-old young
lady, was having a problem with behavior. Almost every day there
was a note or phone call from her teacher about the disturbances.
Almost every week her parents had to go to the school for consultations.
After talking with a friend about nutrition, her mother decided
to give Heather a nervine formula, Nature's Sunshine's Stress-J.
The first day, Heather brought home a note from the teacher for good
behavior. Later in the week, the teacher called the parents
wanting to know what had made the difference - a medication? counseling?
parents getting counseling? She said that Heather was a model student
and a pleasure to have in class. On days they forget to take the Stress-J she
actually tells her mother, "Mommy, I am feeling mean, I need
my herbs."
"On a Saturday morning, Tom gave
a mother some samples of Antioxidant with Grapine for her small
daughter to try. The mother was concerned because the school was
pressuring her to put her daughter on a drug for hyperactivity.
She wanted to avoid it if possible. On Sunday, late in the day,
the mother called Tom and said she desperately needed a bottle
of the Herbasaurs Antioxidants with
Grapine. Her daughter was a like a different person."
Mothers report that
the kids like the taste of the Herbasaurs
Chewables. Also that some children
are more willing to take the chewables because the drugs upset their
stomachs.
Dr. Gary, an M.D. in Family Medicine,
who prescribes Grapine, says that they get "very rapid" results
with ADD patients. He is impressed because the good behavior is maintained
throughout the day. He told of a 6-year-old child with all the symptoms
of hyperactivity that improved on the first dose of Grapine. The
child would hide when his mother would try to give him Ritalin, but
asks for the Nature's Sunshine Herbasaurs
Chewable Antioxidants with Grapine.
Dr. Louis, also in Family Medicine, tells
of his experience with his own son. The son had been diagnosed with
severe ADD and was being attended by specialists, even a speech therapist.
They tried Ritalin but because of the side effects had to stop. The
child even developed a facial tic. They tried Dexadrine, an amphetamine,
with the same results. Very skeptically they tried Nature's
Sunshine's Grapine. It worked! They are now giving it to
the twin sister who was diagnosed as borderline ADHD. Both children
are now doing fantastic.
Dr. Mac, a Chiropractor and practitioner of Holistic Medicine,
treats all ADHD patients with Nature's Sunshine
Grapine. He tells of one child that was taking a drug for the problem,
but had stopped growing and was gaining weight, couldn't remember or concentrate,
couldn't sleep, had "drug hangovers," severe temper tantrums,
constant motion, bad grades and even bad handwriting. In 36 hours, after
the first dosage of Grapine, the child started making a complete
turn-around. Grades and even the handwriting was improving in a matter
of weeks.
"My son was extremely active early
on. He was a "hand full" - plus! Then I heard characteristics
of ADD & ADHD children. I learned a diagnosis was necessary with
medication of Ritalin or equivalent. I was NOT interested in this solution.
I began researching ADD and its causes as far as were known. I began
giving my son food enzymes and the best supplements I could find. This
helped, but I knew there was more that was needed. Each of three times
I thought seriously of having him tested, God showed me that He was
going to heal my son. In an issue of "The Herbs," I read
testimonies of parents using Nature's
Sunshine Herbasaurs Antioxidants with Grapine. They all testified
of great results immediately. I ordered some and began giving them
to my son. In three hours after the first tablets he took, he came
to me and said, "Mom, I feel better." I was SO surprised!
I asked him how he felt "better" and he said, "I don't
feel hyper." They have been wonderful and have helped us very much.
We also use a good, health food supplement. Both have been exactly
what he needed to help the behavior we have seen. We know God is
healing our son! My son is ten and we have been using Herbasaurs
about four months. It has been so helpful in distinguishing willful
disobedience and the actions he exhibits when off the Herbasaurs.
His ability to work mentally is enhanced - it takes less effort to
do simple mental juggling of facts or figures. It also lessens his
frustration when trying to do these same things. This healthy alternative
to Ritalin (and others) is the wisest decision we have made." Kathleen

If you'd like to get to the spiritual/emotional
roots of this disease, I'd recommend a book entitled, "A
More Excellent Way" by Henry Wright. This book has changed
my life around and made me realize what was at the root of this health
problem and many others.
