Your Must Know Guide To New Adhd Research
The research also shows that ADHD children may need to learn with more visual cues and therefore this should be taken into account at school. This so important because the way a child learns and how he learns will impact on his whole future. Other new ADHD research has been led by Dr. Nora Volkow at the National Institutes of Health who has used PET brain scans. After eight years of research she has found that the levels of neurotransmitters which are stimulated after a rewarding experience and can increase motivation and gratification, were much lower in ADHD patients. Could lead exposure cause ADHD? Researchers at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center found that if levels of lead were more that 1.3 micrograms per decilitre, then this could account for more than half a million ADHD cases! This latest ADHD research suggests that renovating your house could expose children to high levels of lead. Dealing with the ADHD child at home and at school Far too often, the ADHD child is thought of as an uncontrollable and badly behaved brat. Behavior therapy which works with parents to establish routines, guidelines, rules supported by consequences and rewards seems to be the best way forward as the results will last for ever. The child will grow up without being considered an outcast and will be able to see ADHD as a difference rather than a challenge. Similarly at school, teachers will be able to exploit rather than condemn the child's differences. Are ADHD medications the answer? New ADHD research has found that after three years, the effects of ADHD medications seem to be less and less and will not have lasting effect on the child's behavior at all. While the meds can certainly calm a hyperactive child and help him with inattention, there seem to be several side effects which can only cause other more serious problems and can lead to an even unhappier childhood! Other new ADHD research shows that some types of medication can be risky and it is better to seek alternative remedies such as ADHD homeopathic remedies. These have no side effects at all and can be combined very successfully with ADHD behavior therapy.
