Right. We always demonize ADHD medicine. Riddle them. Rumm. Okay. It's speed basically.
00:00:06
Are we causing ADHD as a function of the way that we're living our lives or is it
00:00:10
something within the brain genetically that I could I could see? So, it's both. I think clearly you can
00:00:17
see ADHD in people's families. In fact, if I have a hyperactive, restless, impulsive, disorganized, procrastinating
00:00:27
child, I'm looking at the mom and the dad. I'm like, "So, where is this coming from?" But you could also get ADHD from
00:00:33
a head injury, especially if it affects their frontal loes, which is why you shouldn't let children hit soccer balls
00:00:39
with their forehead. You can also get it from the chronic from the excessive input, making people distracted, just
00:00:47
like you said, brand new study out on children who took medicine, right? We always demonize ADHD medicine, but the
00:00:57
kids who took medicine actually had bigger brains in their prefrontal cortex than kids who didn't take medicine who
00:01:07
had AD. Rolin. Ritalinum. That that's okay. It's speed basically. Yeah. Inetamines.
00:01:13
It is. But for the kids who have it, I think withholding medicine from a child who really has ADHD is like
00:01:23
withholding glasses from someone who has trouble seeing. And it's it's the easy thing to demonize the drugs until you
00:01:33
realize someone who has ADHD, a third of them don't finish high school.
