It is so important for parents
to feel that they CAN make a difference in their child's life. Please take a look at the pages on this web site to find information about the small
changes you can make that can make a world of difference to a child (or adult) with ADD, ADHD, OCD, Tourette Syndrome, Autism or
Asperger's. Everything that I am sharing
with you, we have changed in our home and continue to change as we learn more. If you follow the "10
small steps" page I know you too will feel that you CAN make a difference by making a few small changes.
I Believe....
....parents need to follow their instincts where their children
are concerned. Ask questions, do your own research, and make informed choices.

My Philosophy
We live in a world that
is filled with food chemicals and environmental chemicals but we can do our best to limit that exposure.
We could easily become neurotic about every little chemical we come into contact with but then what would the quality
of our life be?
In my family we really try to practice
the 80/20 rule (80% healthy whole foods - 20% the eating out foods). I had a good friend tell me that if
you just start with your everyday foods at home, that in itself can create great changes. It did!!, that is
where we started and that is where I now encourage people to start.
I'm not a believer in extreme behaviors, but I'm a believer in being aware and just
doing the
BEST YOU CAN!
DID YOU KNOW.....
** ...there are over 14,000 chemicals used
in our everyday foods? ** ...that the companies that use and produce these chemicals are
often the ones that test for their safety? ** ...that their hasn't
been enough studies done on the effects of combining these food chemicals? *** ...that ADD, ADHD, OCD, Autism, Tourette Syndrome and many other neurological disorders can
be greatly improved just by eating chemical free foods? **....that
most children years ago ate additives infrequently. getting an occasional lollipop from the bank, cotton candy from
the circus, jelly beans at easter, a cake on their birthday. Today the typical child growing up in the United States
is exposed to these chemicals everyday, all day long.
