csmommy - you think so much like me sometimes. I used to be the health food junkie, then we had a huge vitamin pill manufacturer commit all sorts of blunders here in Australia and the public became aware of how unregulated the manufacture of these products are.
Now my cynicism has travelled into the pharmaceutical industry to the point of how much "funding" the drug companies "donate" certain departments etc to have their products approved. For instance Vioxx (an anti-immflamatory drug for Arthritis sufferers for years) has proven to cause heart attacks and or strokes. But this has only just been discovered after like heaps and heaps of years.
Perhaps we should all just go to the bush and grow organic foods and grow our arm pit hair into dread locks - just to be safe.
I have gone full circle now and still none the wiser. I hope someone else out there has done full circle and is wiser - because I need to talk to them.
I think the only thing that will work in the end (this is my current philosophy ) is love, guidance, support and counselling, and perhaps if we chuck in mlopez's special schools I might have a plan again.
Until next week of course.
There is a section on the page that tells what all is in it and from what my brother (pharmacist) has told me they are all safe. I know one of the ingredients in it is chamomille.Focus is a natural ADHD remedy and I am curious if anyone out there has tried it or heard anything about it outside of their website.
Thank you for any input!!

My whole thing with the natural products are that they are not regulated. How do we know if what is in them might not hurt us in some way. This is what it says at the bottom of the page:
