New Book Helps Children with Learning Disorders
If
you know anyone suffering from a learning disorder you need
to tell them about "The LCP Solution: The Remarkable
Nutritional Treatment for ADHD, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia"
by B. Jacqueline Stordy Ph.D. and Malcolm J. Nicholl. It's
a 340-page original trade paperback.
This
important new book presents a major breakthrough in the
treatment of the three most widespread learning disabilities–ADHD,
dyslexia and dyspraxia ("clumsy child syndrome").
Although these conditions have reached epidemic proportions,
treatment has been limited to physical therapies, educational
strategies, or the controversial prescription drug Ritalin.
Now Dr. Stordy, a leading researcher in the field, and co-author
Nicholl, reveal a stunning new treatment based on nutritional
supplementation with LCPs (long chain polyunsaturated fatty
acids). "The LCP Solution" is the first book to describe
this natural treatment and to explain how children (and
adults) can incorporate it into their daily lives.
As
a member of a family with a long history of dyslexia, Stordy
discovered in a pioneering experiment that many dyslexic
and dyspraxic children who began taking LCPs experienced
dramatic transformations in the quality of their lives.
At the same time, parallel studies conducted at Purdue University
came up with similar results with children who had ADHD.
The effect of this dietary supplement was nothing short
of revolutionary: within three months, dyslexic and ADHD
children became calmer, more focused, easier to teach, while
dyspraxics improved significantly in dexterity and balance.
Writing
with the authority of a scientist and the passion of a concerned
mother, Stordy documents how this life-changing treatment
came about and explains step-by-step how sufferers of each
of the three major conditions can use it to change their
lives at home, at school, and at work. If you or someone
you love suffers from a learning disorder, this book is
essential reading.
Two
eminent best-selling doctor-authors have previewed the book
and had this to say.
Edward
M. Hallowell, M.D., co-author of "Driven to Distraction"
and "Answers to Distraction," said: "This is an excellent
book... offers a most persuasive, and potentially dramatically
helpful, approach to improving the lives of people who
have ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia."
Christiane
Northrup, M.D., author of "Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom,"
commented: "The LCP Solution contains everything you need
to know about how to achieve brain health through proper
dietary supplementation with LCPs. This book is must reading
not only for those suffering from ADHD and related disorders,
but also for everyone interested in optimal brain health
at an age."

Music
Makes the Mind Come Alive
 Don
Campbell, author of the groundbreaking bestseller "The Mozart
Effect" has a new book just published: "The Mozart Effect
for Children: Awakening Your Child's Mind, Health, and Creativity
With Music." It's a 320-page hardcover.
In "The
Mozart Effect," Campbell confirmed that music has the power
not only to soothe the soul but to heal the body as well.
In his new work he offers essential guidance that will enable
parents and educators to better understand music as an aid
to growth, development, mental and physical health, and
creative awakening in our most precious human resource.
A recent
study found that visual tracking, eye-hand coordination,
and other positive behaviors developed more rapidly in babies
whose mothers participated in a pilot program of prenatal
exposure to music. Another study found that remedial first
graders who were given seven months of music instruction
and visual arts training soon caught up in all subjects
with an average group of children not exposed to the arts,
and actually surpassed them in math.
In "The
Mozart Effect for Children," Campbell shows that music is
the perfect tool to improve children's language, movement,
and emotional skills at home, school, and play. He presents
a wealth of dynamic, inventive ways for parents and teachers
to invigorate a child's imagination with music, sounds,
and songs, supplying simple exercises and fun activities
tailored for each age group and stage of development, from
prenatal through age ten. Campbell offers ideas and exercises
both practical and profound, from special ways for parents
to bond with their newborns to tips on fostering good study
habits and stress reduction for elementary school students.

Quote
of Note
"Far
better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs,
even though checkered by failure than to rank with those
poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because
they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor
defeat."
-Theodore
Roosevelt, 26th President of the USA
