Synopsis

For some people with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), medication may not be the right answer, and for others, medication alone may not be enough. Natural Relief for Adult ADHD offers an accessible, research-based guide on the most effective non-medication treatments for ADHD.

If you have ADHD, you may find it hard to stay focused on one thing and have trouble with time management and organization. You may also act on impulse—often with negative results. Whether you're in treatment, on medication, or are looking for alternative ways to get your symptoms under control, this book will provide you with sound, complementary strategies to increase your focus, get organized, and stay motivated.

In the book, you'll find a ton of information on how to manage your ADHD, such as body awareness techniques to prevent sensory overstimulation common in ADHD; working memory training; massage, acupuncture, acupressure, chiropractic treatment; how food additives can affect ADHD symptoms, particularly certain pesticides; how to incorporate organic food into the diet while on a budget; and much, much more.

If you are looking for proven-effective alternative treatments to get your ADHD under control and take back your life, this book will be your go-to guide.

Goodreads review by Holli on August 10, 2019

The person who wrote this book understands ADHD, because they put everything in small sections, told you ahead of time what they would tell you, and they got to the point right away.

Goodreads review by Lauren on July 06, 2018

This a quick easy read about Adult ADHD. I like that the author cites a lot of research within the text which other books I've read on ADHD have failed to do.

Goodreads review by Sasha on November 12, 2016

Informative, but not a lot of direction. Was good to share when studies conflicted (ie - 2 studies against acupuncture, one neutral, one pro). But I was looking for more insight. Lots of tips though, not just for ADHD, but relevant for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and ASD. Just didn't have as much insig......more
