    ADHD is the development of improving the physical activity of kids. This omission has led to psychological problems such as how to think, act and feel. Children who have experienced will have problems with concentration and centralization of the mind. As cause hyperactive child.

    Children with a higher average level, a marker for pesticide twice the risk of undiagnosed ADHD. “I think it’s extremely important is a powerful double effect,” said Maryse Bouchard F, a researcher at the University of Montreal in Quebec and the main author of the study published in the journal Pediatrics.

    So what should parents do to prevent ADHD in children? “I suggest that parents give children organic food,” said Bouchard. “I will wash fruit and vegetables as possible.”

    According to a survey by the National Academy of Sciences in 2008, 28 percent of the sample frozen blueberries, 25 percent of the samples of fresh strawberries, and celery 19 percent of the samples contained pesticide residues. Exposure to pesticides, especially fresh fruit and vegetables.

    Poverty contributes to asthma and disease in children

    children asthma Poverty contributes to asthma and disease in children Children living in poverty before the first anniversary at increased risk of asthma and other chronic diseases later in life, according to a comparative study of children in the United Kingdom (England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) and Quebec Canada. Published in the journal Pediatrics, the study was conducted by researchers at the University of Montreal in Canada and the University of Warwick in the UK.

    “We found that chronic poverty, compared with transient poverty is more harmful to the health of children. In fact, chronically poor children are more prone to asthma attacks,” said lead author Beatrice Nikiema, a researcher at the Department of the University of Montreal Preventive and Social Medicine.

    The survey also found a link between poverty and the risk of experiencing one of the following chronic diseases: allergies, heart disease, bronchitis, kidney disease, mental retardation, epilepsy, cerebral palsy or any other health problem that has lasted six months or more. Data were collected through interviews with parents of 14,556 children who participated in the British Cohort Study Millennium (at least nine months and 36 months) and 1950 children who participated in the Longitudinal Study of Child Development (five months and 41 months).

    children allergies Children with food allergies should carry two doses of Emergency Medicine In an extensive review of six years of emergency department (ED) data, researchers at Children’s Hospital Boston in collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital, has found that many children with severe allergic reactions related to food need a second dose adrenaline, suggesting that patients should have two doses of EpiPen instead of one. Since 1997, the number of school-age children with food allergies has grown by 20 percent, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The study, published in the April issue of Pediatrics, is the largest to date to investigate the emergency treatment of food anaphylaxis in children, researchers said.

    “Food allergies are an increasingly important issue in pediatrics,” said Susan Helms, MD, Division of Children of Allergy and Immunology and first author of the article. “There is not much data on the epidemiology of food allergies because it is a difficult thing to study.” Constraints imposed on the previous studies included clinical trials insensitive to food allergies – for example, using a skin test or a test blood – and the absence of a universally accepted definition of anaphylaxis.
