Vitamin B Continued!

According to some sites I have checked out, symptoms of ADHD could possibly be either a vitamin B or D deficiency.  According to one Swedish study, subjects diagnosed with ADHD were found to be low in Vitamin D and magnesium.  As a result of this, their parathyroid hormone levels should have been higher but were not according to Dr. David Clark. (2010)

     There was also a patient who lost a son who commented on how her family had a history of Rheumatoid Arthritis (caused by Calcium and D deficiencies) and thyroid disorders as well. Think this is a coincidence, I don’t.

     Jon Bennett informs us that Vitamin B is central in allowing the body to produce energy.(2010)  Vitamin B along with Folic Acid, produces an amino acid known as adenosyl-metionine which is necessary to elevate mood and mental sharpness. (Dr. Richard Kunin, 2010)

     Another Presbyterian Medical Center physician, John Lindenbaum, has proven that B 12 deficiencies cause “neurological problems” which lead to fatigue, “delusions, memory loss, depression, and thinking difficulties”.

     Ray Sahelian also informs us of the job Vitamin B has of synthesizing S-adenosyl-methionine [SAMe] known for its ability to produce a sense of well-being as well as being healthy for your joints.
