Healing ADD from the inside out : the breakthrough program that allows you to see and heal the seven types of attention deficit disorder / Daniel G. Amen, M.D.

Amen, Daniel G., (author.).

Summary:

"All-New Revised Edition. Attention deficit disorder (ADD) is a national health crisis that continues to grow--yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and incorrectly treated illnesses today. Neuropsychiatrist Daniel G. Amen, M.D., was one of the first to identify that there are multiple types beyond just purely hyperactive or inattentive ADD, each requiring a different treatment. Now, in this all-new, revised edition, Dr. Amen again employs the latest medical advances in the field, including the largest brain-imaging study ever completed on patients with ADD, to identify, examine, and demystify the 7 distinct types of ADD and their specific treatments. With updated recommendations for nutraceuticals and/or medications targeted to brain type, diet, exercise, lifestyle interventions, cognitive reprogramming, parenting and educational strategies, neurofeedback, and more, Dr. Amen's revolutionary approach provides a treatment program that can lead sufferers of ADD to a normal, peaceful, and fully functional life. Sufferers from ADD often say, 'The harder I try, the worse it gets.' Dr. Amen tells them, for the first time, why that is, and more importantly, how to heal ADD. See Dr. Amen's Public Television Special on ADD!"-- Provided by publisher.
