Caleb, Eleven-Year-Old Boy with ADHD Symptoms


Caleb was in the sixth grade and struggled with reading and writing assignments.  He had great difficulty sitting still, paying attention during instruction, and completing work within defined deadlines…

Dr. Bose Ravenel recommended sharp restrictions in Caleb’s exposure to television and video games along with dietary modifications that included virtually eliminating refined carbohydrates, increasing protein consumption, and omega-3 fatty acid supplements. Two months later, his parents noted that Caleb’s ability to concentrate had markedly improved, and he was making substantial progress with his reading and writing.  He was officially declared as not meeting  from the ADHD criteria.
