Nature Knows and Psionic Success

( Natural News ) If you or a loved one suffers from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or perhaps some undiagnosed variation of such that simply makes it difficult to focus on the task at hand, don’t reach for the Ritalin just yet. New research out of Iran suggests that saffron ( Crocus sativus L. ), one of the world’s most intriguing medicinal spices, works just as effectively as, if not better than, the many FDA-approved methamphetamine pharmaceuticals peddled by Big Pharma as “legal” treatment. For their research, Drs. Sara Baziar, M.D., and Ali Aqamolaei, M.D., of Tehran University of Medical Sciences looked at 54 ADHD-diagnosed children and teenagers ranging in age from 6-17, all of whom were instructed to take either saffron or methylphenidate (Ritalin) for six weeks. At the end of this evaluation period, Drs. Baziar and Aqamolaei evaluated the participants to see which treatment worked more effectively. Publishing their findings in the Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology , a peer-reviewed journal published by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., the duo found that there was no significant difference in outcomes between the children and teenagers who took saffron compared to those who took Ritalin, which suggests that saffron might be a safer and more natural alternative treatment for ADHD. “This is a very interesting study and an intriguing finding,” commented Harold S. Koplewicz, M.D ., the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology , and President of the Child Mind Institute in New York.
