Stimulant Drugs for Children? A Ridiculous Concept

*** Fundraising status- We wish to thank everyone who contributed to our fundraising this month.  It was great and we made our goal with 2 days left.  I can't thank you all enough for your support that has allowed us to continue on with our mission of bringing truth to the world.  As you know this is not  a fast food headline site, rather a deep and detailed well researched blog on the issues.  We also try to include solutions as we find them.  We ask that you be blessed and protected for all that you have done to try to save our nation. Its not over yet, but it does appear we are at the very least delaying them.  That is a victory in itself.  We appreciate the team effort that our readers have contributed to our venture and its success.   Thanks again.  

Vatic Note:  If you have children AND YOU CARE ABOUT THEM, then this is a must read.  We did a blog a week or two ago about the inventer of the ADHD disease was dying and he admitted that the diagnosis was bogus and not  real. It was just another way to reprogram and change DNA in our children through chemical manipulation during their development stage of growth.  This is what happens when we end up trusting instead of being vigilant, we may lose a whole generation of children to Satanism and pedophilia.

What Trauma based mind control does, is dehumanizes an individual which then makes him into a super soldier with absolutely no compunction to murder unarmed civilians, anything of innocence, as we saw with Satanized soldiers murdering a small puppy.

It broke my heart and really hurt to see and watch them throw that puppy over the cliff and I cried and they laughted.  So much inhumanity that the world they will create is not worth living in.  I would rather die fighting and taking many of them with me, then to ever succumb to their evil dark horrible religion.

I strongly recommended getting a copy of the training manual for CIA agents on social engineering our children, called "The Lawful Path:  Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars"  and read that all the way through.  Its a scary document, that was commissioned by the Zionist controlled Bilderbergs and revised in 1979 to allow for massive movements in technological advancements and how to apply them to socially engineering our children.

This doctor does not know this disease was bogus and a fraud.   So what he says is from his belief that the disease exists, but we now know it does not.  SO NEVER DRUG YOUR CHILDREN, EVER and give them permission to QUESTION EVERYTHING THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE TO THEM.  Once they are off the Ritalin, they do not feel "normal" so then they turn to illegal drugs.  The Zionist Mafia simply keeps the coffers full of illegal criminal earnings in order to pay for their planned take over. 

Stimulant Drugs for Children? A Ridiculous Concept

It has always been amazing to me how doctors can prescribe a myriad of psychoactive drugs that have neither been properly studied nor proved to be effective.  Antidepressant medications such as SSRI’s have never been shown to be very effective at treating patients from depression– in fact, they are little or no better than placebos.

Furthermore, every study that has compared exercise to antidepressant therapy has found exercise to be much more effective.  I discussed this phenomenon in my book,

An interesting article in the Wall Street Journal (6.17.13) was titled, “A Nation of Kids on Speed.”  This article was written by Drs. Cohen and Rasmusson.  In this illuminating article, they describe the history of amphetamines.  Examples of present-day amphetamines include best-selling drugs Ritalin and Adderall.

Amphetamines were initially prescribed in the early 20^th Century as antidepressants and weight loss aids.  The authors of the WSJ article point out that, “Decades would pass until research demonstrated the lack of long-term benefit for most cases of depression and weight loss, but the lack of proof didn’t hold doctors back from liberally prescribing stimulants to millions of housewives in postwar suburbs.”

In fact, by 1969, doctors were prescribing the equivalent of 120mg of amphetamine for each American.  It wasn’t until the Controlled Substances Act of 1971, which mandated stimulant prescriptions would be classified as Scheduled II drugs and each prescription written by a doctor had to be reported, that the number of stimulant prescriptions began to fall.
 
You would have thought that the medical profession would have learned its lesson—that stimulant drugs were dangerous.  However, keep in mind that we are dealing with Big Pharma here.  In the late 1980’s, Big Pharma found a new avenue for stimulant drugs.  They began promoting stimulate use for treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children.  A short time later, stimulants began to be prescribed in ever-increasing numbers.

Parents were reassured that childhood stimulant use would not result in adverse effects such as future drug abuse.  However, there were no studies and there still are no studies that prove or disprove this claim about childhood stimulant use.  Keep in mind, nearly 10% of U.S. children are diagnosed with ADHD and millions are taking ADHD stimulant medications now.  (VN: I know a woman who was put on Ritalin at an early age and when she got off it at 18 years old, she felt totally abnormal and resorted to illegal drugs to feel normal again. That is how bad they are.)


The authors of the WSJ article point out that “…the only randomized trial to study future substance abuse by ADHD kids refuted the notion that stimulants, when taken in childhood, have a protective effect. {Instead}, investigators found strong evidence that ADHD itself in fact predisposes children to later substance abuse but no evidence that stimulant medication reduces this rate any better than treating ADHD with behavioral approaches.”

I have always marveled at the power of Big Pharma. They can take a dangerous class of medications—stimulants—which are addictive and prone to serious adverse effects, and convince both doctors and parents they are safe to give to children.  However, the blame here does not fall equally.  Doctors deserve more blame.  They should know and understand the dangers of stimulants and prescribe them judiciously.  Unfortunately, that is not happening.  Stimulants are some of the most popular drugs prescribed today.
 
Do I think stimulants should never be prescribed for ADHD?  No.  I have witnessed some patients doing remarkably better with stimulants, children and adults alike.  However, before placing children on a potentially dangerous medication, doctors should initiate a thorough search for the underlying cause(s) of ADHD.

Once the underlying cause is ascertained, a rational treatment program can be started.  What are some of the underlying causes of ADHD?  My experience has shown that nutritional and hormonal imbalances deficiencies along with poor dietary habits can cause ADHD (as well as depression).  I frequently lecture about a boy who was diagnosed with ADHD and had an undiagnosed hypothyroid condition.

When the hypothyroid condition was properly treated his ADHD symptoms disappeared.  I have treated untold numbers of children with attention problems by cleaning up their diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies.  It does not take an advanced degree to realize that ADHD is not caused by a ‘Ritalin- or Adderal- deficiency syndrome’.

Final Thoughts

Doctors should understand the importance of nutrition and diet.  Dangerous prescription drugs should be prescribed as a last step after exhausting other less-toxic means.   Parents need to educate themselves about any drug their child is going to take.

And, finally, parents need to feed their children healthy food.

I shudder to think how the younger generation is going to cope in adulthood.  Stimulant use is not the best way to treat the vast majority of children (and adults) suffering from ADHD.  In fact, stimulants should be the last step in any ADHD treatment plan— that includes both adults and children.
