False Positives

What is a false positive? It is a test result that is returned when a substance tests positive for another compound. It is a case of mistaken identity. For example if you eat a couple poppy seed cakes before testing, you can get a positive result for opiates.

Adderall Side Effects and Your Child

Author: Diana Ketchen

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD is currently conceived to be experienced only among children. In fact, suffering from ADHD in the early stages of life may take the merit to its diagnosis among adults. Hence, children who are suffering from ADHD need immediate treatment so as not to carry on the disease through adulthood.

With that, many of the cases of ADHD are put under certain medications. To effectively manage, control or improve an ADHD patient's behavior, doctors usually turn to drugs. Adderall is one of the most popular and commonly prescribed drugs that are commonly used in treating and managing ADHD.

Adderall is a drug that was proven effective in managing the symptoms of ADHD among children and adult patients. Depending on the dosage, the beneficial effects of the drugs include improved academic performance among patients of school ages, better behavior, and overall improved performance. The drug was even declared to be more potent than any other drugs used to manage ADHD as it was observed to have a longer period efficacy especially in low dosages.

While many patients benefit from adderall medications, there are a number of cases of minor to serious adderall side effects. The symptoms of the drug's side effects are usually minor and can easily be treated by a healthcare provider.

Adderall is a clinically tested and proven effective drug. However, through its series of clinical testing, a number of its side effects have been documented. Common Adderall side effects include loss of appetite leading to weight loss, difficulty sleeping, abdominal pain, high blood pressure, emotional changes, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhea, increased heart rate, fever and heart burn.

Patients with heart problems and other health conditions must take caution in taking adderall medications. Among children, there is a documented case that adderall medication has caused temporary slowing down of growth, particularly in weight. Further research have discovered increased cardiac defect as one of the drug's rare side effects.

To minimize the risk of Adderall side effects, medications are usually given at strictly controlled dosages. Patient's who are given such medication for the first time will be instructed to take low dosages just to see if there is any sign for side effects.


The extent of the drug's side effects varies from patient to patient since they depend on the individual body's reaction to the composition of the drug. While Adderall side effects are typically minor, worsening or untreated 'minor' side effects pose serious health risks particularly among patients with heart conditions and high blood pressure.

In February 9, 2005, the Heath Canada decided to suspend the sales of Adderall XR after its manufacturer, Shire Pharmaceuticals, received reports that linked the drug to the 12 sudden death cases of American children who were under adderall medication. Later on, the ban was lifted due to the limited evidence supporting the claim.

However, one thing is clear- adderall is never the perfect drug that will solve every patient's behavioral queries and the long term effects
of Adderall are not known. Thanks to modern science, ADHD patients are given more options for treatment. Now, with safer, effective and less invasive solutions to behavioral treatments, patients can very well stay away from the dangers that psychiatric drugs such as adderall have.

The negative side effects of Adderall and other prescription medicine for ADHD are the main reason that parents are opting for alternative treatments. These treatments include behavioral therapy, herbal and homeopathic remedies, and diet control. If you don't know what the long term effects of Adderall are, why would you want to take the chance with someone you love.

The Dangers of Vaccines (Autism, Mercury, HPV, MMR, Thimerosal, Aluminium, Vaccinations)

Health authorities claim that vaccines are safe that they prevent infectious diseases. Yet these claims are contradicted by statistics and medical studies.

The side effects of vaccines include many disorders such as autism, brain damage, learning disabilities, dyslexia, epilepsy, seizures, ADHD, ADD, crib death, allergies, cancer, asthma, diabetes, obesity, etc.

Vaccines contain many toxic substances including mercury, aluminium, formaldehyde, methanol, MSG, antifreeze, latex, aborted foetal tissue, animal blood, animal viruses, foreign DNA, bacteria, etc.

http://www.informedchoice.info/cockta...

Thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative has been used in vaccines since the 1930's. Mercury is the most toxic element after plutonium. Thimerosal has been linked to many physiological and neurological disorders, including autism in children.
http://www.thimerosal-autism-symptoms...
http://www.autismmedia.org/media2.html

Because of public concerns has Thimerosal been removed from most childhood vaccines, many other vaccines including flu shots still contain Thimerosal.
Vaccines contain increasing amounts of aluminium, which is also severly toxic. Aluminium has not yet received widespread media attention therefore most parents do not consider it to be a major health risk. http://mercola.fileburst.com/PDF/Alum...
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/art...
http://www.mothering.com/articles/gro...

Many parents and healthcare professionals around the world are becoming aware of the problems and are starting to question the need for vaccinations.
http://www.relfe.com/vaccine.html
http://www.thepeopleschemist.com/view...

The benefits of vaccinations have been overstated. Infectious diseases declined steadily for decades prior to the start of widespread vaccinations, and even fully vaccinated populations have experienced epidemics. Most childhood infectious diseases are benign and self-limiting and play a vital role in the development of a strong, healthy immune system.

Historically, homeopathy has been far more effective than mainstream allopathic medicine in treating and preventing disease. Homeopathic kits for disease prevention do not contain toxins, and therefore don't cause any side effects. Homeopathy has also been effective in reversing many disabilities and diseases caused by vaccines.

A detoxification process called chelation can safely remove toxic metals such as mercury from the body. Chelation, in combination with a healthy plant-based diet has cured many children from autism. Chelation is dismissed by 'main stream' medicine because of the financial ramifications. If they were to accept chelation as a legitimate cure for autism, they would in effect admit that vaccines have caused autism!

The Truth about Mental Health Disorders - Psychology

The Truth about Mental Disorders.

Dr. John Breeding, Ph.D. psychologist discusses how mental disorders are created by the American Psychiatric Association and listed in the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental Disorders.

Disorders such as bipolar, ADHD, OCD, Anxiety Disorders, etc. are voted into existence by APA committees.

The underlying assumption of biological psychiatry is that mental illness is biologically based despite the fact that no solid science has been able to identify biological markers for mental illnesses.

Kids with ADHD May Learn Better by Fidgeting

Like nose-picking and a preoccupation with feculence, the inability to sit still for long periods is a defining characteristic of childhood. But children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often squirm constantly, even when other kids can remain still. Many parents and teachers respond by trying to get ADHD kids, at any cost, to stop fidgeting. The assumption is that if they could just stop wriggling, they would be able to focus and learn.
