About this title

From the Back Cover

A COMPLETE SELF HELP PROGRAMME FOR PARENTS OF HYPERACTIVE CHILDREN

Research in the UK shows that a high proportion of hyperactive children, many of whom are boys, are born into families where allergies are common. Environmental pollutants, chemical sensitivities, food intolerance and nutritional deficiencies cause a cascade of severe problems.

Crying and screaming in young babies, sleep problems, disruptive and uncooperative behaviour, poor co-ordination and concentration are all symptoms of hyperactivity. This book clearly explains what hyperactivity is, what is causing it and how you can set about dealing with the problems. It includes important advice about:

How a wholefood diet can help, including menu suggestions and simple recipes
Environmental, chemical and food allergies and what you can do
Day to day management of a hyperactive child
How hyperactivity can be prevented
