CDC Report: ADHD Tops Childhood Mental Disorders

Autism and ADHD are created (fake) diseases (meaning they where intentionally created to sell drugs from Big Pharma.

Junk diseases, that did not exist even 30 years ago are the result of unnecessary and over and/or dangerous inoculations of toxic vaccines, like the MMR and Gardasil vaccines!

Additionally, the nutrition harm caused throughout the food and beverage chain with genetic modification and High Fructose Corn Syrup is also well established.

Watch WHAT’S WRONG WITH WHAT WE EAT? On the front page of this web site!

Anyone suggesting the above is not true, is a LIAR or Death Merchant, and seeking to profit off your children’s’ created illnesses.

In point of fact, Big Pharma are eugenicists seeking to profit off diseases they caused.

Combine such CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY with the BIOTERRORISM of any genetic modification proponent and you have a perfect storm scenario in destroying America from within, allowed by bought and paid for Republican and Democratic politicians in Congress, US Senate, State Houses, White House, and yes, even the courts are on the take, for the past 45 years!

If you are new to this blog and web site, there are literally tens of thousands of empirical articles, studies, videos, movies, documentaries, and books on this site, proving Obama Sick Care, written by Big Pharma, is out to fleece, harm, hinder, hurt and KILL you!

Here, in the attached article, we see aggressive doping of the population by QUACK AND CRIMINAL DRUG PUSHER$,

There was no ADD or ADHD some 30 years ago, this was all caused by over vaccinations, the stripping of the food and beverage chain of any vital nutrients like real fats and oils as well as vitamin D-3, and harmful chemistry that has flooded what passes for food and beverage (like genetically modified corn, soy, wheat and HFCS).

ADHD Medicine Affects the Brain’s Reward System

In CategoryAttention Deficit Disorder, Brain/Mental Health, Drugs and Drug Companies
ByRuss Bianchi

There is no such thing as attention deficit, such behavior is caused by poor absorbable nutrition in a pregnant mother, a lack of nursing of an infant, an extremely dumb down food and beverage chains, including bad for children infant formulas and highly processed baby food, massive over injection/vaccines/boosters/flu shot causing many of these issues along with autism in children, plus the flood of the food and beverage chain with cheap High Fructose Corn Syrup!

Additionally, children REQUIRE 40 percent of their diet to be in saturated real fats, like whole raw fresh milk, or their brains cannot develop correctly.

Also a lack of vitamin D-3 is a major contributor to behaviors being labeled as some disorder to SELL MORE HARMFUL DRUGS!

Ask yourself a simple question: why was there no attention disorder in children prior to the 1970′s?! Because children ate and got real unprocessed and non industrialized food, whole milk and were not shot or drugged up!

ADHD meds, ssri’s and moa’s (anti depressants) are a FRAUD and no child should be put on them!

Young Children Exposed to Anesthesia Multiple Times Show Elevated Rates of ADHD

In CategoryAttention Deficit Disorder, Baby/Children/Teen Health, Drugs and Drug Companies
ByRuss Bianchi

Just like inoculations, vaccines, booster, injections, flu shots, drugs, even at minor exposure levels, in kids, anesthesia exposure, is a BAD idea.

Anesthesia (see books in the technical recommended reading section of this web site) are nothing more than a high risk controlled (in many cases uncontrolled) coma.

Anyone is at risk of never waking up from general anesthetics!

That’s why they make you literally sign your life away with legal waivers before administering these dangerous drugs.

Argumentation that surgical procedure under general anesthesia saves lives, and therefore out weighs the risk (which is reasonable if the person has a potentially mortal or hemorrhaging condition), completely FAILS to address many such surgical procedures are unnecessary, and nothing more that billing and profit revenue generation, which is pandemic in the US and western medical system.

Preventive nutrition is far safer than reactive and evasive drug or medical surgical protocols, with proven higher recovery outcomes. Watch WHAT’S WRONG WITH WHAT WE EAT? on the front page of this web site to “GET” in 19 minutes why all these problems exist in the first place.

I remind you that the London (now Royal) Board (or College) of Surgeons (was founded in hacking attempts at cutting, stitching, and healing in the 1600’s) and they were widely regarded as grave robbers, crooks, quacks, charlatans, liars, and thieves, …in many senses of this view, some of this has not changed (particularly in Big Pharma and their employees in the US Congress, or in the UK – Parliament).

Anesthesia really did not begin as a practice until the 1840’s, and remained haphazard, at best, through the American Civil War (amputation without pain control was an everyday event).

It was not until John Lister and Louis Pasteur, that any real sanitation was known, or practiced, and it was common place to die of secondary infections, even if the wound or ailment were correctly incised, or sutured.

Hospitals today have become centralized BUG FACTORIES for patients dying of secondary infections, due to the massive amounts of antibiotics, that are now resistance in westerners, because 58% of all antibiotic production from Big Pharma is going into industrialized food livestock production (pigs, cattle, poultry, farmed fish, etc.) causing antibiotic ineffectiveness, or uselessness, when truly needed to kill human infections.

Read THE TRUTH ABOUT THE DRUG COMPANIES by Dr. Marcia Angell, MD, recently retired Editor & Chief of The New England Journal Of Medicine, linked in the recommended technical reading section of this web site; if it does not get your attention, that you need to be in charge of your own body, not your profiteering MD, then as I say, I cannot fix stupid, or DEAD.

Mayo Clinic researchers have found that multiple exposures to anesthesia at a young age are associated with higher rates of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Children exposed to two or more anesthetics before age 3 had more than double the incidence of ADHD than children who had no exposure, says David Warner, M.D., a Mayo Clinic pediatric anesthesiologist and investigator on the observational study.

Iron Deficiency in Children diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)

In CategoryAttention Deficit Disorder, Baby/Children/Teen Health, Nutrition Supplementation
ByRuss Bianchi
Summary: In a multiphase, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study involving 52 children (6 to 14 year olds, mean age: 10 years) diagnosed with moderately severe ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), mean ferritin concentration was found to be 18.4 ng/mL, with 23% of subjects having levels below 7 (the assay-defined threshold for iron deficiency). Interestingly, serum ferritin was found to be inversely associated with baseline inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity, and total ADHD symptom scores. A history of treatment with psychotropic drugs moderated some of these associations, with previously medicated children showing an even stronger association between serum ferritin concentration and ADHD symptom severity. The authors conclude, “The prediction of amphetamine optimal dose by ferritin concentration suggests that iron supplementation should be investigated as a potential intervention to optimize response to psychostimulants at a lower dose in individuals with low iron stores and ADHD.”
