Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are generally defined by lack of concentration and inappropriate impulsiveness. ... There is a connection between ADD and diet that researchers have been looking into for the past couple of decades. ...
The two most studied dietary approaches to ADD are the Feingold diet and a reduced phosphorous diet. ... By decreasing these levels in the diet, those symptoms are diminished. ... The Feingold diet attempts to eliminate many foods containing salicylates and reduce food additives to boost PST production and bring the child’s PST levels to a normal range.
Synthetic food additives and preservatives can also act like drugs on certain children, triggering symptoms that look exactly like ADD and ADHD. Many ADD diagnoses, then, are actually misdiagnoses, and could be completely cured by greatly reducing the number of additives and preservatives in the child’s diet.
