Alternatives to Ritalin with Children

Dr. David Jantz/Alternative Health Care Center, Grosse Pointe - "The rate is
very alarming, how many kids are being put on this. It's being handed out like
candy."

More than 2-million schoolkids between the ages of six and fourteen have been
diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, or related hyperactivity problems.

The prescription for most of these kids: Ritalin.

Dr. Jantz - "It's a stimulant. It acts to depress the brain function."

Dr. Jantz - "Look for alternatives first. This is definitely a last resort."

More and more parents are seeking natural alternatives.

One vitamin and mineral product, kids-plex, is actually being marketed to
parents of kids with a-d-d. But does it work?

Dr. Jantz - "Sure, it could. It may not necessarily target the cause. But it's
got amino acids and many kids are low on good protein."

Dr. Jantz - "They want candy. They want cookies."

This container cost $32 and lasts about two weeks. After a while, it can add
up. But experts say you could duplicate the nutritional effects of this product
by simply making a few changes in you child's diet.

Dr. Jantz - "They could start packing a lot more fruits and vegetables. I would
leave out any sweets, especially at lunch time because that's when kids tend to
fade out."

Doctor David Jantz believes many cases of ADD are related to low blood sugar or
nutritional deficiencies.

But he says a product like kids-plex can only be part of the solution and won't
improve a child's behavior all by itself.

Dr. Jantz - "If they don't get off all the junk, you're not going to see a
change. Kids are addicted to these refined, man-made carbohydrates."

Dr. Jantz - "And this particular type of food acts like rocket fuel in the
body."
