The Hyperactivity Hoax by Sydney Walker
Book Description
Is your son or daughter one of the millions of American children labeled as hyperactive or attention disordered? If so, The Hyperactivity Hoax will show you how to find real medical help for your child - not just an ADHD or ADD label and a pill.

In over thirty years of practice, Dr. Sydney Walker has successfully diagnosed and effectively treated hundreds of children with hyperactive behavior or attention problems. How? Not by merely masking their symptoms with Ritalin or other drugs, but by diagnosing and treating their real medical problems - problems ranging from metabolic and genetic disorders to heart conditions, infections, anemia, brain cysts, hearing and vision problems, and toxic exposure (to name just a few).

The Hyperactivity Hoax debunks the "label-and-drug" fad that has resulted in massive numbers of American children being put on powerful and potentially harmful mind-altering drugs without the benefit of any real medical diagnosis. If you're seeking a better way to help your hyperactive or attention-disordered child, you'll find it in this book, which offers practical step-by-step advice about:

  • How to determine if your child truly needs medical help
  • How to find a good doctor
  • How to obtain a real diagnosis and real treatment
  • How to assert yourself when taking on doctors and school officials
  • How to evaluate both traditional and alternative approaches to treating hyperactivity and ADD.
You owe it to yourself, and your child, to find out the true causes of out-of-control behavior, school failure, and other serious problems written off as ADHD and ADD. For anyone ready to abandon pat labels and dangerous drugs and seek real medical help, The Hyperactivity Hoax offers new hope and invaluable advice.

"Finally someone breaks the myth about hyperactivity. This is a must read for every parent. Not only does it clearly show that hyperactivity is a professional excuse for medical incompetence, but it gives parents a real action plan for helping their children. It's about time an esteemed physician spoke out. Bravo, Sydney Walker." - Charles Inlander, President, People's Medical Society

Solve your child's problems without the damaging effect of potent psychiatric drugs which have known and unknown side-effects and which will also act to dull your child emotionally and intellectually. No parent should put their child on drugs and every parent should research the facts and alternatives to the paradigm provided by modern psychiatry (a very limited, and damaging perspective).

Every year in the U.S., over two million children are given the drug Ritalin to combat Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). There are safer and more effective alternatives. Many researchers and authors have found powerful evidence that a drug-free approach works. The drug-free approach is always the best choice.
