Herbal alternative to Ritalin

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

I am a mother of two ADHD boys, and for years I tried various pharmaceutical stimulants; mainly Ritalin. This past year, due to many side effects, I was finally convinced by a friend to try something called ZAN; an herbal stimulant. I was very skeptical about the whole herbal route, but she was insistent that it worked wonders for her own child. I am writing to tell whomever is interested, that it works!! My children have been on it for almost 7 months, and they are doing great. It helps them focus, and have more control over their impulsitivity and hyperactivity, without any side effects. My youngest son started sleeping better and his appetite has vastly improved. Their website is www.zan-pro.com If anyone has any questions about my experience with it, please email me. I just wish I was told about ZAN years ago. I was always against the idea of putting my children on medication, but at the time didn’t realize that there is any other option.Thank you, Christine

EMAILNOTICES>noCoffee - caffeine - caffeine compounds are known to help a very, very small group of those with ADHD to temporarily better pay attention. Sources: Domeena C. Renshaw, M.D., Anita Uhl Brothers, M.D. For the remainder, Ritalin/other medicines/treatments work better.
