I will be very interested to see any ONE of the studies by these 80 wise men that proves any chemical imbalance due to their diagnosis of ADHD.
You make a statement of fact that pathology tests are done in which you claim “individual biochemistry” based on scientific evidence. Please reference these tests and evidence as per normal request when scientific claims are made: Where published, article, authors, abstract and claim.
The “chemical imbalance lie” has been put forward by bio-psychiatry for decades now, yet they themselves admit they cannot prove it. In more than 15 years of research and questioning I have not found one so-called “scientist” that will sign his name to such a statement. When asked to do so they excercise semantics that will scare the most gifted of politicians.
If what you are saying is true you are sitting on a world first: a truly remarkable achievement.
If you can’t provide proof for your claims, retract your statements and apologize to those you have lied to.
There really is no excuse for ignorance on this issue anymore. You’ve been duped. You should wake up and smell the coffee.

Great article. The whole premise of ADHD is based on pseudo science in that a stimulant treats “over stimulation”.The brain chemistry theory has no actual “scientific” basis although it is presented in a way so as to appear scientific. Many “experts” are not independent and are paid by the pharmaceutical industry.

Some children may have been eposed to toxins that are effecting their behaviour, however they suffer from poisoning, not ADHD. Obviously efforts to help recognise where children have been poisoned with toxins (including ADHD drugs) and remove or reduce exposure to those toxins are commendable but the association of the terms ‘biochemical imbalance’ and ‘ADHD’ is misleading as it implies the child is inherantly faulty.

Please note; I believe in open debate. Therefore it is my policy to leave all comments unedited on the blog (except for grossly offensive, defamatory and abusive comments).

There are 80 doctors in Australia who have been trained to look for the biochemical imbalances in children with ADD and ADHD and Behavioural Disorders and who can often correct those imbalances with minerals (in particular zinc) and vitamins and perhaps diet. Pathology tests are done so it is based on scientific evidence of that particular child and their individual biochemistry.
Outcome studies show that approx. 80% of children have been helped who attend our doctors.
Please check out our website – newly trained doctors will be added to the website shortly.
