Abstract
In the study we review some research regarding natural treatment of ADD/ADHD, gain some gold advice from an experienced mom and a naturopath and get to know three new and different natural treatments: The Nemecheck protocol: There is growing scientific evidence that an imbalance of intestinal bacteria along with excessive inflammation within the brain are responsible for the features associated with autism as well as ADD/ADHD, mood disorders and developmental delay in children. Dr. Nemechek has discovered specific natural treatment combinations to improve or reverse brain inflammation and intestinal dysfunctions. Treating ADHD as an intestinal disorder opens a completely new treatment approach toward the actual physical problems underlying this condition. Neurofeedback: New and innovative home brain training solutions based on BCI and Neurofeedback. The system works in the neural pathways that create a sense of pleasure, motivation and concentration. The practice of neurofeedback allows the trainer to change his brainwaves frequency to the desired frequency while using his own self-regulation system. The flexibility of the brain is reflected in its ability to remember the way it changed frequency and by learning to reach the desired frequency even when the neurofeedback system is no longer there. CBD oil: CBD is a product of the marijuana (cannabis) plant with the high-inducing THC compound removed, which means it is not psychoactive. CBD oil might not be the first treatment for the attention part of ADHD, but its importance is to help with managing specific symptoms related to ADHD like: Anxiety, sleep disorders and social difficulties.
