Learning disabilities
Currently over 4.4 million children between the ages of five and 17 have ADHD or learning disabilities. Of that 56% take pharmaceuticals to control symptomology (Bloom & Cohen, 2006; Nat. Health Stat 2007; Fruelich, 2007).
Controversy about long-term effects contribute to noncompliance and failure to seek treatment or help(Charach, 2006). Alternative and safe interventions will give people more options and one more research and studies (Katz, 2010).
According to Tharpar(2012) there are many potential causes for learning disorders.
A. Genetic
B. Prenatal risks
C. Psychosocial stressors
D. Environmental pollution
E. Abuse

Genetic risks show very small effects meaning they are very rare and can be found in many other psychiatric disorders such as depression and anxiety. Does cannot be used for future prediction of learning disabilities.

According to CDC, ADHD has many collateral effects such as poor social skills, in ability to get along with others, The ability to make decisions is very poor, have a great difficulty keeping a job or being a responsible parent, Emotional excitement and out-of-control reactions emotional excitement and out-of-control reactions(over reacting). Plus ADHD overlaps with other disorders such as Tourette’s and autism.

For the purpose of this video we are going to focus on the primary research behind Tourette’s, autism, and learning disorders.
Some of the best studies show environmental exposure to toxins such as lead and mercury increase symptoms (Eyre, 2017).

A comparison of Ritalin versus food supplements to treat children with ADHD in research by hoarding 2003 showed significant improvement in TOVA-4 scores for the supplement group. However scores did not improve for the Ridellan group.
B vitamins are a cofactor in the synthesis and functioning of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. Acetylcholine as well as GABA the amino acid (Bay es 1999).

Spira Lena is extremely high and B vitamins, folic acid, Vitamin C, D and E, as well as all essential amino acids and minerals (Ciferri, 1985). Preliminary evidence shows supplementation decreases symptomology (Sinn& Bryan, 2007; Hodges, et. Al 2007; Cremonte, 2016). TeleMed research using Spira Lena for depression with randomized cluster trial also showed promising results (Balestrini, 2020, Baroni, 2009; Kressor, 2019).
Children are especially vulnerable to mercury and lead exposure and the harmful effects by disrupting neurological functioning (Kressor, 2019). According to the journal Lance neurology is silent pandemic of neurological developmental toxicity is causing major behavioral problems in children and adults in America. Mercury samples were taken from the spinal cord and found to have a significant increase in mercury from blood cells of brains of autistic children (Kressor, 2019; Juanjan, et. Al. 2017).
Lead exposure through paint, Old pipes, and pesticides found in children impairs the neural transmitter transmissions. In other words the encoding, recall, coordination of thoughts, are blocked and intercepted by lead exposure (
Juanjun, 2017).
