Good day all ..
May ask that you read carefully what I'm about to type .
Yesterday as I was about to sleep later at night when I received a message from my church mate ..My church mate has a son that goes to a certain primary school and the teacher of the child suggested that the mother should put her son on Ritalin medication since he has ADHD disorder . The mother of the child was asked to meet the doctor who would give the child the medication. .
The mother contacted me to ask whether there was a way out of this ? She asked for advice . Being sm1 who question things , I asked the mother whether she knew the cause of ADHD, she wasn't sure rather she was told the doctor language with terms she couldn't understand.
This is what it is my people , thousands are perishing in ignorance, I asked her if she would like to put her son on medication but understanding that drugs don't cure diseases she said she wasn't willing to take the risk.
I advised her to look for other alternatives which is dealing with the cause ..removing processed and refined foods from the child's diet .
I had to check the side effects of Ritalin and here is what I found :MEDICAL
