Stimulant Drugs for Children? A Ridiculous Concept

Doctors continue to prescribe a myriad of psychoactive drugs that have neither been properly studied nor proved to be effective. Today, children are being prescribed these stimulant drugs at an alarming rate. No one stops to consider the effects of diet and nutrition on a growing child's mental health. I have always marveled at the power of Big Pharma. They can take a dangerous class of medications—stimulants—which are addictive and prone to serious adverse effects, and convince both doctors and parents they are safe to give to children.
