MEDICINE CHEST: HERBS FOR ANXIETY AND ADHD

摘要

We've all felt the effects of a stressful situation on our physiologies: irritation, lack of focus, and sometimes even fear and anxiety. For some, these changes can become overwhelming, and ultimately linked to a syndrome called "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder." Almost 10 percent of all children receive this diagnosis—a 650 percent rise since the late 1970s. For adults the rate has been estimated at up to seven percent of the population. Regardless of whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, poor concentration, impulsive behavior, and anxiety can affect anyone, resulting in significant consequences for mood and productivity.
