Nutrition and ADHD - 2020

It has been my experience that, as a generalization, the healthcare community has a nonchaulant approach toward nutrition and instead favors an expensive, prescription only approach to health.

The healthcare community often passes the buck to grocery stores and chooses to avoid almost any discussion as to food quality and water quality.

The healthcare community does not like to discuss what can be in prescription drugs at all.

Parts of the healthcare community choose not to discuss cheaper, non-prescription drugs which are available.

Parts of the healthcare community receive commissions/kickbacks for recommending certain prescription drugs to their customers.

Some members of the healthcare community (2020) are terrified to bring up the subject of nutrition due to possible political retaliation by special interests (my view).

X-ref:

- Special Interests
- Possible Conflicts of Interest
- Trade Guilds - Policies
- Etc.

There have been and still are are few very high profile healthcare people who publicly claim they are sincerely interested in better health for everyone yet if you look at their actions (actions speak louder than words), they tend to regularly promote only products which make them money and try to censor or muzzle all discussion of their products/what may be in their products or actual success rates vs the phony success rates they sometimes falsely promote.

The above is true for both for profit and non-profit healthcare providers.

For profit and non-profit does not always mean ethical.

Sorry if my view offends some readers.

One only has to visit the cafeteria section of hospitals to see the kind of foods which are available.

X-ref:

- Choices
- Healthy choices in vending machines vs convenience choices (less nutrient value) in vending machines
- Etc.

Discussions can often be hidden/camouflaged under categories such as neurotoxicity.

Neurotoxicity occurs when the exposure to natural or manmade toxic substances (neurotoxicants) alters the normal activity of the nervous system. This can eventually disrupt or even kill neurons, key cells that transmit and process signals in the brain and other parts of the nervous system. Neurotoxicity can result from exposure to substances used in chemotherapy, radiation treatment, drug therapies, and organ transplants, as well as exposure to heavy metals such as lead and mercury, certain foods and food additives, pesticides, industrial and/or cleaning solvents, cosmetics, and some naturally occurring substances. Symptoms may appear immediately after exposure or be delayed. They may include limb weakness or numbness; loss of memory, vision, and/or intellect; headache; cognitive and behavioral problems; and sexual dysfunction. Individuals with certain disorders may be especially vulnera...
