"I was a little put off by the string of celebrity endorsements on the back cover. Much of this book is common sense. The "cure" is strictly following a sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free diet - not an easy cure. I'm trying to incorporate at least some of this into our family's diet, but getting my child to give up all sugar, dairy and gluten would be an uphill battle. I do agree, however, that what we put into our bodies greatly affects our ability to concentrate and our moods."
"In my opinion, Dr. Gordon is a little extreme in his prescription of diet and exercise as a "cure" for ADD/ADHD. While I agree that poor diet and lack of exercise exacerbate the symptoms of ADHD, I do not believe that diet and lack of exercise actually cause ADHD. Nor do I believe that watching too much television or playing video games cause the disorder.
I also am concerned that this book's highest recommendations come from celebrities rather than other doctors or ADHD specialists.
However, Dr. Gordon does provide some practical tips for getting families to exercise together, and I will also refer to some of the recipes provided for healthy snacks and meals. His discussion of behavior modification and CBT are fairly standard and I found Russell Barkley's book to be a better resource for that. (See my review for Taking Charge of ADHD: The Complete, Authoritative Guide for Parents by Russell Barkley)"
