article which measures blood iron in children with ADHD vs. children without

The next link is to a study
where they supplemented children with fairly high dosages of iron over 12
weeks. The effects were about the same as seen with drug therapy.
The children in the study initially had fairly low iron levels, but were not
anemic.
SODzyme: Help for chronic pain my also be a life extension nutrient.
Our own personal experience lends considerable weight to the above
article. Two of us at Cactus had lived with chronic pain for
years. Chronic back pain for over 25 years from a weight lifting
incident was resolved in about a week. Chronic pain from a
shattered and pinned leg which had existed for about ten years was
resolved in about a week.
We recommended it to family members, and chronic pain in an 85 year
old from a two-year old leg fracture was resolved in less than a month.
She took only 1/3 the recommended dosage (she's very conservative when

5/11/05 Eat fat
to lose fat
An article in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition described
a study of dietary fish (Mori et. al. 1999). Overweight patients being
treated for hypertension were randomly assigned to a daily fish-containing
meal (3.65 g of omega-3 fatty acids); a weight-loss regimen; the two
regimens combined; or a control group for 16 weeks. Fasting triglycerides
fell 29% with fish consumption and 26% with weight loss. The fish plus
weight-loss regimen group showed the greatest improvement in lipids:
triglycerides decreased by 38% and HDL cholesterol increased by 24% compared
with the control group. The authors concluded that adding a daily fish meal
into a weight-loss regimen was more effective than either measure alone at
improving glucose-insulin metabolism and dyslipidemia (Mori et. al. 1999).
