Project Description
ADD and ADHD:
Education is essential to truly understanding Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). You may find the following books, websites, and information helpful for you, but because they have not been especially recommended for you or your child by Dr. Goldman please do not consider them medical advice. Do not begin any diet or dietary supplement without checking with your doctor first.
