BrightSpark ADD cure | From LineC [Log on to view profile] | on 2006-04-08 |

My 9-year old son has been diagnosed with ADD. I read up on a natural remedy called BrightSpark which contains Hyoscyamus (30C), Tuberculinum (30C), Arsen Iod (30C) and Verta Alb (30C).
After googling these ingredients, Hyoscyamus is a poison, Tuberculinum comes from Tuberculosis pus, Arsen Iod is Arsenic and I didn,t find much on Verta Alb.
Does anybody know anything about this product?
If it is safe (because of the treatment of the ingredients as well as quantities), I might consider trying it. I really don't want to give Ritalin to my son. I've read th |

I am copying the reference to Veratrum Album from Boricke:
ÊÊ VERATRUM ALBUM White Hellebore
A perfect picture of collapse, with extreme coldness, blueness, and weakness, is offered by this drug. Post-operative shock with cold sweat on forehead, pale face, rapid, feeble pulse. Cold perspiration on the forehead, with nearly all complaints. Vomiting, purging, and cramps in extremities. The profuse, violent retching and vomiting is most characteristic. Surgical shock. Excessive dryness of all mucous surfaces. "Coprophagia" violent mania alternates with silence and refusal to talk. | | |

I don't know anything about this product but do not worry about the actual ingredients. I would suggest finding a classical homeopath who can help your son individually. My son is recovered from autism - mostly due to homoepathy. My daughter (8) has ADD and her remedy manages this quite well. Read up on homeopathy so you understand what the remedies are and how they work. Even though many are made from actual poisons - they are not poisonous. I think it is better to find a good fit for your son specifically then try a universal mixed remedy product. Email me if you have more questions I might be able to help with. Good luck! | | |

You should use this product and share the results here with all us. Almost all homeopathy medicines are made up of poisons.
Hyoscyamus (30C), Arsen Iod (30C) Verta Alb (30C).
All of these things are poisons as well homeopathy medicine. Tuberculinum is a nosode but still a medicine. | | |

I started my 6 year old son on BrightSpark on Sunday. So far the effects have been good. His mood is cooperative, communicative, happy, less irritation with sibling. He's enjoying school now. Brought home progress report on Tues with 4 stars! He hasn't gotten 4 stars for months. He's very proud of himself. Today 5 stars. Only side effect I've noticed with concern last night he complained of headaches. Today no complaints just smiles. I will continue to monitor his progress and let you know. | | |

I'm new to homeopathy. Is this meant to be a long term treatment? How do you know when to discontinue remedies? | | |

by side effects--or more like over action of remedies--from unnecessary repetiiton---best for you read on how homoeopathic remedies are proved--just search ''homoeopathic provings""--this give you an idea how data is gathere for treating patients aso give ou an idea of how needless repetition of homoeopathic remedies can be harmful--producing side effects--this most dont acknowledge --i dont know why...maybe purposeful ignorance..but i tell --rea on this and consider before using product ''as they tell---3 times a ay for months---without monitorization--ridiculous...anyway--do some research ok? | | |

I have been using Brightsparks for 9 weeks for my 9 year old son,who has a long standing ADD profile but not hyperactive. He has changed from a dreamy unorganised underachieving child into a focused alert boy who is now keeping up in class and his teachers cannot believe the turn around with him. His classroom teacher has rung me a number of times and is thrilled with his attitude enjoyment and results from schoolwork..He has shown no negative effects and his appetite has also improved. I am monitoring the formula with a homeopath locally in Sydney. Coming from a medical/health background I was at first dubious but have witnessed first hand these improvements and would recommend it to others. Check with a childrens homeopath for advice and monitoring and a more specific formula for your child . Most importantly look also at your childs diet and make sure thay are getting adequate essential vitamins and minerals and Omega 3's.Good luck. | | |

Sorry, I messed up. I'm a first-timer. Does anyone know if the BrightSpark and Zoloft are contraindicated? Thanks. | | |

I have just started to use Brightspark. AFter looking into the ingredients, I have become skeptical. As I read replies I become even more uncertain. Any reassurance would be greatly appreciated.
