Hello. I am new to the forum. I have two kids with ADHD. My 17 yr old was diagnosed in the second grade (advice-don't let your ADHD child get their license at 16!). I also have a son who is 12 with ADHD. He has been on Ritalin, Adderal, Strattera and Concerta. The Concerta seemed to do well with him, however as a nurse I am concerned about putting medication into my childs little body. I recently started him on Melaleuca Vitality Pack and Provex after reading an article and many posts. I also have read that Luminex (St. Johns Wort) also has been used with these two supplements with some success. Two questions:
1. How long after starting the vitamins and Provex should I see a difference in my son?
2. Has anyone also used the St. John's Wort as well?
Any information you have is appreciated!

[/QUOTE] We are 3 yr. memebers now. Their stuff is great but expensive. I take the daily for life and love it. I also use their cleaning products,dental products,hair products.I also use the luminex and replenex. This I saw a difference pretty fast. I also love their laundry pack also. I would rather use their stuff than any others anyday. Their vitamins are all food grade. I posted on the alternative meds board as well. Thanks for the advice. You might take a look at the St Johns Wort board from the main forum page (aren't there safety issues with this?). And for the Melaleuca you should probably re-post on the Alternatives board.The products are a little expensive. However, what I have noticed is that it takes less to accomplish the same results.
