 Another compelling reason to become responsible for your health, and not leave it to the people in the white coats. 

...And you probably thought "non-profit" hospitals actually meant not for profit, too.

 AMAZING.

We discovered back in 2010 that exposure to pesticides increased the risk of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in children; yet we continue to dose them with MORE chemicals, which can cause sleep problems, headaches, abdominal pain, seizures, liver damage, and oh, possibly suicidal thoughts and fatal heart problems. (For a more comprehensive review of ADHD drugs, seehttp://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/disease/attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder-adhd/medications.html

Not surprisingly, not one of these drugs cures ADHD. Not one.

The way I see it, we have two options:
1. We basically agree to allow multinational chemical corporations to affect the health and lives of our children; or

2.We stand up to the chemical multinationals (who conveniently make the drugs to "treat" the symptoms caused by the pesticides made by the same company); the medical establishment, and our government and fight for our kids. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO?
