Why I will never put my kids on Ritalin

Posted on Posted in Blog, Uncategorized

I went to a documentary movie last night sponsored by Dr Bill Koppari of Lifestyle Chiropractic. Generation RX is a film that shows how Prozac and Ritalin along with other similar medications were introduced in the 60’s in mental hospitals, backed off of in the 70’s and then exploded in use as pharmaceutical companies looked for ways to expand their markets. These drugs were never designed for children. Studies show as high as 1 in 6 of our boys are being medicated.
Is this due to lazy parenting, an imbalance that could be corrected in other ways or a combination of the above. In Dr Kopparis talk after he noted the connection between poor spinal alignment and how the nervous system controls the body.
