Aspergers son with ADHD

Suzza

My son has recently been diagnosed with ADHD. We have been hiding the medication in a chocolate mousse before school. He is now refusing the mousse And we are going to have to talk to him about talking it with water. and swallowing the tablets. He is very difiant and will not go for this option. he HAS to take it for school or he really can't cope. He is 8 years old. I really am stuck and desecrate . Any ideas???

thankyou x

    Hi Debz,

    The evidence for dietary intervention is not at all clear and I only mention it as one possible avenue to explore. My idea of dietary intervention is to cut out any of the bright colour E number additives and perhaps cutting out apples and tomatoes and substituting with other fruits and vegetables such as pears and cooked, rather than raw, vegetables. A balanced diet is essential but I don't think this sort of dietary change needs to be approved by a dietician.
