The second "A" in the new childhood epidemics is for "ADHD".
The main symptoms of ADHD include lack of focused attention, hyperactivity and impulsive behavior. Commonalities of the "A" disorders include toxins, heavy metals/chemicals, oxidative stress and inflammation. Lead, mercury, thimerosal and alcohol all inhibit activity of methionine synthase.
