ADD..............
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyeractivity Disorder)
This disease plagues parents and children alike. Often children with ADHD are placed on a drug called Ritalin (methylhenidate). This drug , in my opinion, does more harm than good.
Remember , these medications hide the symptoms but fix nothing. Many of the imbalances in the MATRIX will exacerbate or may even cause ADHD.
Large numbers of emotional disorders have been linked to adrenal hormone imbalances. Adrenal hormones are essential for life. When you experience physical or psychological stress, the adrenal glands release natural chemicals such as adrenaline, DHEA, and cortisol ( all adrenal hormones ) directly into the bloodstream that calm the stress.
In the case of ADHD and ADD the Mangosteen Xanthones help to balance the liver and the production of these hormones, which in turn alleviates stress. A continuous flow of xanthones in the body will insure further alleviation of stress.
In individuals with ADHD, mal-absorption problems may diminish levels of tryptophan and other amino acids.
Xanthones have been found to balance the tryptophan/seratonin relationship in the brain. In my opinion, this is done through the detoxification and healing of the liver by the xanthones of the Mangosteen. Xanthones also are anti-inflammatory, and thus the Mangosteen may help heal the gut and cause the return of normal gut absoption.

may be the dose is wrong or that brand of medicine is wrong if it is really making you feel sick
that would depend on what you actually mean by feeling sick and how long since you started to take this medicine
you need to explain to your parents exactly what you do not like about the effects of this medicine and have a talk about all of your and your parents concerns and then you all should go and have a talk to the doctor who may change or adjust the medicine

Medicine has been a godsend for my daughter. After years of discipline that went nowhere, frustrated classrooms that couldn't do their work with her in the room, homework-time that turned into a physical activity that lasted for hours, her teacher suggested she be tested for ADHD.
She has been put on medication and it makes a world of difference. No, she is not doped up. She now has the capability to sit and do schoolwork. Before, when the best she could do was write her name and maybe complete one problem before getting squirmy, now she can complete her work and save her energy for recess. Before, when it was physically painful to sit next to her because reading involved her using flailing arms and legs (that she couldn't help,) now she can read through a chapter next to me and I am bruise free.
We worked with trial and error on the dosage of her medicine. When it's too high, she becomes a zombie and we all hated that because she lost the creative spark that we all love about her. When the dose was too low, she would get squirmy much earlier in the day and physically could not wait for recess to run it off.
It's easy for people without ADHD children to chastise me for "drugging up my kid" and that I simply need to discipline her more. Kids who are truly ADHD cannot control their squirmy behavior even under threat of death. Their bodies simply lack the control of saving their active behaviors for appropriate times and need the medical help. When kids become zombies from the medicine, then they are taking too much and need adjustments.
Understand, too, that treatment does not stop with medicine. We are training her to keep her behavior in check on her own for a time that she might not need her medication any more.

Medicine helps the child focus which is essential to being able to do school work. It also tames their behavior making them easier to tolerate, and therefore giving them a chance to have friends. ADHD kids fail to succeed academically and socially which takes a heavy toll on their self-esteem. Give the kid a chance to belong.

Depends what your question means exactly, but if a doctor has recommended it then it must be worthwhile taking. If you have any doubts then don't bother with it.
