ADD & ADHD

UNDERSTANDING ATTENTION DEFECIT DISORDER & ATTENTION DEFECIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER

Attention deficit and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are neurological and behavior related conditions that adversely affect an individual's ability to concentrate. Many individuals also experience excessive energy and a lack of impulse control. Children with ADD/ADHD may commonly seem to have difficulty following instructions or being still, have diminished focus or organization, or be easily distracted or bored. Adults with ADD/ADHD may also experience emotional and physical restlessness, mood swings, low tolerance or resiliency, unstable relationships, and an increased risk for addiction. Recent research has connected ADD & ADHD with some potential a genetic links. In addition, there are many environmental and dietary factors that increase the risk and worsen symptoms of these conditions.
