ADHD is different with ADD. ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) has two main symptoms (hyperactivity and impulsive), while the main symptom of ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) is the inability to focus (without hyperactivity).
Children with ADHD can be classified into three groups: Hyperactivity and act impulsively, focusing attention disorder (Attention Deficit Disorder), and the concentration of attention and hyperactivity disorder (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).


Many parents do not feel worried if their children who were aged under five years old are very active impressed. Although sometimes exhausting and cause resentment, but that was the act of a healthy toddler.

SMOKING DURING PREGNANCY AFFECTS MYELIN GENES IN OFFSPRING

Smoking during pregnancy may interfere with brain development. New animal research shows maternal smoking affects genes important in the formation and action of a fatty brain substance called myelin that insulates brain cell connections.

The research was presented at Neuroscience 2010, the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, held in San Diego.

The finding may explain why the children of mothers who smoked during pregnancy are more likely to develop attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression, autism, drug abuse, and other psychiatric disorders. "Myelin deficits have been previously observed in adults with various psychiatric disorders," said Ming Li, PhD, of the University of Virginia, who directed the study.

Did you know that Albert Einstein (inventor of the theory of relativism) appeared to suffer from hyperactivity?

Lots of data showing that people who are successful and high achievers were suffering from behavioral problems, such as: concentration of attention disorder (ADD) and learning difficulties

FOODS EFFECT ON HYPERACTIVITY

Many studies have been conducted to determine the relationship between food intake with hyperactivity. One was conducted by a team from the University of Southampton (United States), which surveyed more than 1800 three-year-old boy who suffered hyperaktivitas. The results published in the scientific journal Archives of Diseases in Childhood in June 2004.

FOOD SUBSTANCES CAN AGGRAVATE HYPERACTIVITY

ADHD is not a disease but a collection of symptoms. Therefore, to deal with ADHD should be sought before the root cause. Hyperactivity could arise due to bacterial infection, intestinal worms, poisoning and harmful heavy metals (eg lead Pb, mercury Hg, and copper Cu), metabolic disorders, endocrine disorders, diabetes, or brain disorders. In addition, other factors are excessive consumption of caffeinated beverages (eg coffee, tea, chocolate, cola) while the mother was pregnant, poor diet, the nutrients that are not balanced, the less quantity of sleep, and poor sleep quality.
