Plants vs Pills: Natural Solutions to the Over-Drugging of America's Youth, (Paperback)

In America, 1 in 6 children are labeled with some type of 'disorder'. Plants vs Pills is a single mother's story after her 5 year old son was diagnosed with ADHD, following a 15 minute interview. Along their journey, she discovered no effort was made to determine the underlying cause of the behaviors the public school system used to substantiate their 'diagnosis'. After caving into the pressure to medicate her son and then watching him change into a different child over the next two years, she decided there had to be a better way. Through her own research and education - both formal and self-directed - she identified information that she felt should have been shared with her by numerous medical professionals. At that point, she took her son off the medications and introduced natural remedies. Plants vs Pills provides parents with alternatives they can explore to find the natural solution that works for their child.
