Ritalin Facts
5 Million children in US are taking it!!!!
It is now being called "Kiddie Krack"
itis a drug...not a medication
Kids are getting high on it.
Kids are buying it and snuffing it up their noses like cocaine.
It is hard on the heart and brain
Snuffing it can deteriorate the back of the septum and cause holes which will
Let out fluid from the brain.
The US Government has put a limit on how much can be sold during a year. The pharmacy's are running out early..the solution??? They are going to raise the limit.
In all the school shootings they have found drug taking involved in all cases.
This is a total disgrace!!!!

The Amazing
Statistics and Dangers of Soda Pop - Kids are heavy consumers of soft
drinks, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and they are
guzzling
soda pop at unprecedented rates.
Schools
Peddling Junk Food to Kids - Many schools are raising money by getting a
percentage of the sales of soda to students. The biggest cost, some
parents and
health advocates say, is the health risk to students in a system that
gives
schools a financial interest in selling them more snacks.
Metal
Toxicity
Excellent article by Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD, that summarizes some
of the
problems of heavy metal toxicity.
The Easy Way Out
Rather than stare social problems straight in the face and try to
determine why certain children are anxious, depressed, irritable or
noisy troublemakers, the tendency in this culture is to try to drug the
problems away. What if the problem is simply that some of these kids
have minds, and spirits, of their own?
