Why Are So Many Children Hyperactive? - 3 Great Ways to Stop It!

Why are so many children hyperactive, parents and teachers ask. A friend of mine who taught in a secondary school dreaded the class immediately after the lunch break. This was because she was convinced that all the children were hyper because of the snacks they had been eating at the tuck shop were full of additives, sugar, or salt and various preservatives. The crash came later so the second period was always quieter! There is some truth in her claim although it is not the whole story.

There has been so much debate about colorings, preservatives and additives in kids snack food that I do not know where to start! The EU is banning some of these in some foods and there are many people who say it causes hyperactivity in kids. I know from anecdotal evidence that some kids react to a red dye on foods and they can be defiant, angry, restless and irritable for a few days afterwards.

With ADHD kids this could exacerbate an already explosive situation. Some children react to these dyes but there is no conclusive evidence which explains why are so many children hyperactive. So, the first great way to avoid all the hyperactivity, outbursts and over-excitability is to avoid those foods anyway because they are just not healthy and concentrate on fruit, vegetables, high fiber food and whole grain cereals and bread. Another great way is to make sure that there is more protein at breakfast than carbohydrates because that can prevent a sugar spike and kids could possibly become more restless and start twitching or squirming..

The second great way to calm hyperactive kids down is to make sure that there is not so much clutter or confusion in the house. An ADHD child, because of sensory overload, is likely to become overwhelmed by all the things around him. A cleaner, lightly colored room with lots of boxes to put things in is a great help here. This also goes for having a routine and structure which we follow every day. That sort of military regime works wonders with ADHD kids and they seem to thrive.

The third tip may seem strange in that research now shows that when kids are actually allowed some movement when doing mental tasks, they can actually improve concentration. This could be listening to music or trying to balance on an exercise ball. We are providing an outlet but also the research shows that this secondary movement helps them to focus. Buying a stability ball or exercise ball is a great investment.

When learning or homework is not the main activity, organizing normal exercise and green time is another way of letting off pent up energy.

These then are just a few ways we can implement when we wonder why are so many children hyperactive. The other remedies for ADHD and hyperactivity consist of choosing medication which is safe and effective and also implementing child behavior modification techniques. I have built a website to explain all this so why not click through for more information?

Gofit 75Cm Exercise Ball $22.49 The GoFit Exercise Ball is a fun, yet challenging way to stretch, tone and tighten your body. What makes the GoFit Ball so challenging? Unlike training on a stable, flat surface, the ball is a round, unstable surface, so you not only train the primary muscle groups, but also the smaller stabilizing muscles as well. The stabilizing muscles are small, yet very important muscle groups primarily used for balance, alignment and posture. The ball total body workout is very efficient, allowing you to see the results you want in a much quicker period of time. Combine the ball workout with the GoFit cardio vascular jump rope program and resistance tube training and you have a complete workout that can be done anywhere, anytime, and at a very affordable price. As a general rule, the exercise ball should be large enough so that when you sit on it, your knees bend at a 90 degree angle. The 75cm ball is recommended for persons 6ft and over with a 1000lb weight limit. Not recommended for usage with weight training routines. Comes with ball pump, 2 ball plugs and an easy to follow exercise wall poster. GoFit Stability balls are made of rubber and contain no Latex.
