Are there natural cures for attention deficit disorder?
Home remedies, homeopathic medicine, vitamins/minerals. Anything that you can get at a health food or vitamin specialty store to lessen the effects of adhd in adults?
This is for someone who suspects having the disorder (and has relatives that definitely have adhd) but does not have insurance to cover the cost of diagnostics and treatment

There have actually been a lot of studies that have shown that Fish Oil can help with ADD/ADHD. It seems too simple, and that may be one reason it wasn't really looked at closely for this, but I wasn't surprised it would help when I thought about it. The EPA and DHA in Fish Oil help with all sorts of things including heart health, skin health, and brain health. There was a good article at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-391503/Fish-oil-calms-children-better-Ritalin.html that covers some of this as well. Give it a try... it's economical, safe, and easy. Just make sure that the company you get it from uses Molecular Distillation because that's currently the only safe way to remove any trace contaminants of any heavy metals. Of course, if you aren't sure about the dosage or the benefits, you may want to consult with a holistic doctor, as they may have other additional options available to them.
There are also a lot of people who have found some relief from limiting sugar, artificial colors/flavorings, and going with less (or no) processed food to take away those possible causes as well. From research I've done, Fish Oil tends to help more, but both work even better together. Good luck and I hope I helped!
from the exps i,ve heard,they have said that food allergies is foremost in treating. if from heavy metal toxicity,then chlorella among others crosses the blood/brain barrier to chleate.
