An interesting story regarding ADD / ADHD and the impact supplementation has:


My 9 year old son, Juan, was identified with ADHD combined type when he was
only 6 years old. He has been on Ritalin since grade 1 and received
occupational therapy for 3,5 years, although his marks did not improve at
all during the years in grade 1 to 3. It was always borderline. At the end
of grade 3 he almost did not pass his grade and we were advised to get him
tested to see whether he has any other problems.


The doctor who tested him said that he had learning, as well as
concentration problems. He also had shortcomings with language and
vocabulary. He recommended last year that I put him in a special school or
keep him back for another year, because he was not coping in grade 3 and
that he will have serious problems coping in grade 4. He said that he will
have problems to handle complex learning material in future and that he also
has auditive short term memory problems which meant that what we would teach
him today, he would forget tomorrow such as the time tables. He also has a
lack of visual memory which meant that he will make a lot of mistakes
copying words, writing from a black board etc. We were also advised to get
a speech therapist to work with him and continue with any remedial and
occupational therapy.


Juan has been drinking the Nutrilite vitamins for the
past 5 months. We decided at the end of last year to keep him in the same
normal school and continue with the occupational therapy and the vitamins.

In grade 4 he started with tests and exams for the first time and at the end
of March, his report card came back and he has scored an average of 75% for
his March exams. His final average for all tests and work assignments were
69% at the end of the first quarter 2009. This meant that he has increased
his marks with more than 20%! He has been able to learn all the time
tables and scores regularly full marks for spelling tests etc. In the
mean time, I have decided to wait with the evaluation of the Speech
Therapist, but still continued with occupational therapy. Eventually he
was evaluated during May by a Speech Therapist for the first time. She
advised that although he is still lacking with vocabulary and language, his
reading capability has been tested on grade 7 level, although he is now only
in Grade 4. She has advised that he does not need speech therapy at all .
His occupational therapist has been working with him since grade 1 and she
has phoned me during May to say that she will concentrate on language for
the rest of May and June and that he will not need any occupational therapy
after June. In fact therapy has already stopped at the end of May for the
first time in 4 years. She said that she cannot continue occupational
therapy with a child who is currently in the top of his class!


We have not done much differently to the previous years at school, except
that we gave him lots of attention with school work and we do not only rely
on aftercare to help him with his homework. We help him study with 'right
brain methods' by using pictures etc, since that is his strong point, and
we have put him on the Nutrilite vitamins as were advised to do. We have
also seen that when he forgot to drink his vitamins or when we ran out of
vitamins that he has had mood swings and is much more difficult to handle
and the results of not drinking it, could be seen within 2 days after
dropping any one of those vitamins. Thus, I am convinced that this story
is truly a testimony for these vitamins.

I cannot say exactly when the improvement in his school work came, because
his holiday started at the end of November and the school only opened in
January this year. But when he was back at school, there was an immediate
improvement in his schoolwork.


Although Juan is still on Ritalin, we are planning to reduce it slowly
after 8 months on Nutrilite. This is how Juan drink his 8 vitamins at day
at the moment if any of you have the same problems and would like to try it:



Daily Chewables 2 x morning and 1 midday

Lecithin E x 1 morning

Omega 3 - Drink 3 x in the evening before going to bed

Vit B Complex - Drink 1 before bedtime



Please remember that what these children eat has an influence on their
energy levels. Try not to give them too much fizzy cool drinks, white bread
and sugars. Rather give them biltong, eggs and protein products, also the
protein shakes are great.

Ever since I read Eckhard Tolle's books, 'The power of NOW' and 'A new earth', my way of being has taken on a whole new dimension.
Having come to the realisation that we are truely all one and the same, and Love is all there is and ever will be, my way of doing business and my relationships now reflect who I am being in life, in that moment.
Tolle speaks of three things that are required to be fully present in the NOW, they are:
ACCEPTANCE,ENJOYMENT and ENTHUSIASM, if you can be operationg from there three platforms, in every moment, people will be drawn to you. Like attracts like, treat your co workers, friends and family with acceptance, no matter what; enjoy being in your daily role and add all the enthusiasm you can muster...and see how amazing your day will be.
" Love is a state of being. Your love is not outside; it is deep within you. It is not dependent on some other body, some other form. You can NEVER loose it; and it CANNOT leave you." - E. Tolle

Hope you have an amazing week!!!!

An image of a New Zealand bird, taken by a passionate NZ photographer friend of mine. In tune with her creative side, Tabitha started taking images for stage events, such as the 'Smokefree Rockquest', 'Rock to Wellington', several years ago, launching her carrier onto the stage of professional photographers.

What I like about Tabitha's images is her approach to different angles and subject matter. Some of her more unique, natural images on canvas ( big canvas ) have an almost magical effect.
She is based in Wellington and is available for any assignment, wether it be a wedding, event or photos of your cat. You can check out her work using the following link.
